I actually don’t disagree. That’s certainly the connotation that comes with “terrorism.”
It’s also not how the legal definition works, unfortunately, which is just vague enough to let the FBI decide what is and isn’t terrorism based on how they feel about something. As I understand it, anyway. And since what he did falls under the legal definition, they can charge him with it.
It’s of course used for control. Shit, the fuckers put ANTIFA on the terrorist organization list after they claimed they were responsible for Jan 6… And now they are saying they should pardon them all because they changed narratives and they were Republicans. When you put a headliner on your meeting that says “We are all terrorists” and then use the laws around terrorism to subjugate people who disagree with you… It starts to get a bit hazy.
Edit: let’s be unequivocally fair. All punishments brought up on him for being a terrorist should be cast upon those who also supported CPAC, or they should toss all the laws tied to the word terrorism, because clearly they have no defined meaning
