    People on the lib left like to point out that white extremists are basically never labeled terrorists (which fair enough) so I think that's what she's going for here? Ultimately terrorist is a loaded term no matter what, and one that inherently exists to justify the security state (or in this case a fucking monarchy lol), so I'd rather square that circle by not calling anyone a terrorist rather than asking for white people to get sent to CIA torture sites as well.

      Yeah it's a dumb term. Terrorism is a tactic that has been used throughout history, sometimes justifiably, oftentimes not

        There’s also a huge difference between massacring random civilians and targeted insurrection towards a powerful enemy, yet both get called terrorism.
