  • “Ideological” pretty much covers everything else. A threat to kill is an act of terrorism.

    I think what’s happening here, is that murder has become so normalized that we have reached a point where the word “terrorism” has to have some special definition that excludes it from the regular run-of-the-mill terror one would experience when they’re life is threatened for whatever reason.

    I mean, would you feel terror if someone threatened your life in a way that you truly believed you were in danger?

    Oh, and she sung a song in Spanish, and was threatened with death for not singing in American English. That screams political to me…


  • Terrorism, in its broadest sense, is the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims.”

    So… no, I think I got it right. I mean, its root is from the Latin word- “terror”. A threat of death is sure to cause such a feeling in most people. So- in this form, the threat illustrates the act of one person terrorizing another. Therefore- one who terrorizes is a terrorist by definition.

    This is not a stretch to arrive at this conclusion. That it sounds foreign might be a result of the normalization of violence.








  • It’s laughable that anyone in their right mind could think civilians have any chance to stop this with violence. Any attempt even hinting in that direction will shut down the country and martial law will be enacted- and trust me when I say this-

    Trump WANTS that to happen. This is the desired outcome for him. I’d imagine the man salivated over footage of Tiananmen Square.

    And it should probably be contrast… Trump could read the headline of a newspaper over your shoulder… FROM SPACE, should he so much as want to. What exactly do you think some folks with a few assault rifles is going to do against a military that has the capability to turn entire cities into a fine pink mist?

    No. In abject complacency, this bed was made decades ago. And there’s no turning that clock back now. It’s done. This is how shit is going to be.

    The only thing to stop this regime from doing what it does, is for another regime to do what it does. So… That’s where we are now.

    And frankly, if you think about it- there little worth saving anyway. It’s not like shit was prosperous prior to Trump’s rule. America is a shit-show. Has been for a while now.
