Instead of denying the label “terrorist”, we should embrace and normalize it. It was always a rhetorical weapon for the status-quo, and we have the power to take that away.
To be fair , only one of them is under united states juristiction
While I see your point to a degree, that Netenyahu pic should really be a picture of Biden standing next to netenyahu, because thats the reality of it, right. This renders US jurisdiction irrelevant. Netenyahu, Biden, and Putin too are rogue actors who shouldnt ever be allowed to travel beyond their countries borders again. If caught they should be rendered to the hague for war crimes.
Criminals dont get to set a personally convenient standard for what justice is. the US and Israel both ratified the geneva conventions, so they are bound by it.
He hasnt been convicted of being a terrorist, don’t jump the… gun
I have yet to see mass adoption of “Luigi is a terrorist” amongst the US population. In fact, quite the opposite.
Yes, but the legal system does not act on the whims of mass adoption. It’s like that mom in Florida who got slapped with terrorism charges for telling blue cross blue shield the deny, defend, depose line over the phone. The harsh crimes are there to chill anyone who might step out of line.
You’re omitting the part where she said, “You people are next.” That makes it a terroristic threat.
Peasant brain mentality.
If she said, “I’m going to come kill you.” That would be a threat. Her saying, “actions like what you are doing have gotten people like you killed” or even “you deserve to be killed” are just observations, warnings at most, but not threats.
“You people are next” is a threat based on your own position of power. A politician saying that, yeah that’s a threat. Some random person saying it someone else, not so much.
If someone has a recording of an ex saying that to them over the phone, the best you’re getting is a restraining order, if you get anything at all.
Maybe if she said “I’m coming for you next”, then that would have more weight. But now we’re in hypothetical land, so who cares.
I feel like we, as a society, should agree on a set of rules and laws, that we adhere to in order to ensure acceptable conduct and behavior.
Yes, but the legal system does not act on the whims of mass adoption.
Locke and Rousseau want to know your location
The real hero is…WTF. How come we don’t provide Luigi with billions in armament to see if he can take down the healthcare monopoly?
The war against high healthcare cost. Sounds reasonable to me. Like the first retaliation strike against Palestine seemed reasonable to me. But then Nathan Yahoo kept going and by the third day I was like dude WTF! But what did we do? We kept helping! WTF again! Then it was kids getting followed by drones and blown up to pieces. WTF!
Now Luigi comes along and fights against something that actually makes a difference for us the regular people and he gets to become the incarcerated person? The criminal? This is wrong. I hope Trump pardons Luigi. If not because Trump wants to do the opposite of what Democrats do, then maybe because the syphilis is eating his remaining brain cells. If he did, he would probably win the public like no one has ever bigly won the public ever before by gerrymandering the fuck out of every county. It’s a great middle finger to be given where I would care that it happened.
If Brian Thompson had been a black man on the subway, Luigi Mangione would be a right-wing celebrity right now.
He still is a right wing celebrity, but for the outlaw country set. He bagged himself a rich man north of Richmond!
