Terrorist I wouldn’t go that far, criminal of courseYou don’t think some Trump supporters are future domestic terrorists?
We just had one attack the FBI today.
Scroll through a few of these recent posts from Trump people and tell me they aren’t potential terrorists.

Maybe don’t take people literally?If he believes we are terrorists, 100%, why doesn’t he move. He is surrounded by terrorists?
^^^^Terrorism is the use of violence or fear to achieve an ideological gain.
Yeah, calling them terrorists is just way too far when they’re on social media threatening violence against ideological rivals and then going so far as trying to kill them.
It mentions “especially against civilians”in the terrorist definition, which I don’t think was the goal on Jan 6Terrorism is the use of violence or fear to achieve an ideological gain.

Well if he continues to say it, and won’t deny it when questioned what do you expect me to think?Maybe don’t take people literally?
Weirdly, this is a fundamental difference I see between progressives and conservatives —- and this isn’t a criticism of conservatives — but I feel like they think much more linearly and struggle to think abstractly.
Tom Paris clearly doesn’t LITERALLY believe all Republicans are terrorists or the Taliban. But he is able to see parallels between mindsets in those two cohorts. This is an example of abstract thinking, which again, I think conservatives are poor at.
Do you think that rhetoric helps anyone?Maybe don’t take people literally?

Again, that makes no sense. You're an idiot.OMG, pot meet kettle
Oh look another thread where Riley is confused.Again, that makes no sense. You're an idiot.
It mentions “especially against civilians”in the terrorist definition, which I don’t think was the goal on Jan 6
Who's the pot, who's the kettle?Oh look another thread where Riley is confused.
Keep in mind, he's an idiot.A “civilian” is a non-military citizen.
What was the goal on January 6th if it wasn’t directed at “civilians”? An act of war against the United States armed forces? An attack only directed at capitol police?
Members of Congress are “civilians”.
I don’t think it changes minds, no.Do you think that rhetoric helps anyone?
He’s not.What’s that supposed to mean? I thought you were better than that, Focker.
So it’s ok to call people terrorists who clearly aren’t? People have obviously forgotten what happened to us on 9/11I don’t think it changes minds, no.
That said, I’m not going to fault someone for passionately expressing their concern for their country and I sincerely believe that is what Chis is doing.
Probably not in the eyes of the Jan 6 criminalsA “civilian” is a non-military citizen.

What is the definition of desecration? (Why do I always have to help you)Who's the pot, who's the kettle?
You're an idiot.
Math. Reading. Simpleton with the simple attempt at a put down.You just teach gym class right?
He’s not.
Well obviously you shouldn’t be around childrenMath. Reading. Simpleton with the simple attempt at a put down.
Prove him wrong. That’s all I’m saying. Instead you smack talk and can’t back it up. It’s like you don’t even pay attention to the Republicans in leadership. They’re telling us what they’re doing. Stop being ridiculous.oh yea he did, and Tom laps it up and confirms it
That’ll work too. I just think this is further along than you do.You are correct, it is not 1930s Germany.
The better parallel is late 1920s Germany when the fascist movement was still nascent and only held by an active and fierce minority. We still have a good fighting chance to kill it in the crib.
Lol I don't need to be critiqued by you.Chis doesn't recognize nuances
Plenty of people have called his rhetoric hyperbole, even some of your democrat friends. I don’t know what else you want me to prove. It’s literally right in front of youProve him wrong. That’s all I’m saying. Instead you smack talk and can’t back it up. It’s like you don’t even pay attention to the Republicans in leadership. They’re telling us what they’re doing. Stop being ridiculous.
He's an embarrassment. A "Moderate" MAGAt fine with everything happening by the GOP domestic terrorist organization.Prove him wrong. That’s all I’m saying.

Thanks for the confidence booster as I'm team America aka 1944 AntifaYea you do
Thanks for proving my pointHe's an embarrassment. A "Moderate" MAGAt fine with everything happening by the GOP domestic terrorist organization.
😆 you are delusional at best. AT BESTThanks for proving my point
Probably not in the eyes of the Jan 6 criminals
You are flailing in this thread like a man falling out of a tree. Take a pill. Do you talk all your wild right wing politics to your patients? Never mind. You shouldn’t be trusted around sick people because of your political beliefs. It doesn’t matter if you’re good at your job or not.If he believes we are terrorists, 100%, why doesn’t he move. He is surrounded by terrorists?
You just teach gym class right?
Why? The same way you shouldn’t be around patients? Would your patients agree with me?Well obviously you shouldn’t be around children
Thanks for the confidence booster as I'm team America aka 1944 Antifa
So the assaults on Paul and the softball shooting you would classify as terrorists?Words have meanings.
Being uneducated and not understanding what words mean doesn’t change their definition.
They used threats of violence and actual violence against ideological rivals. By definition, that makes them terrorists.
Crashing a plane into a building due to ideological differences? Terrorism.
Threatening to hang the Vice President and storming the capitol over ideological differences? Terrorism.
Showing up at abortion clinics and threatening violence against patients or providers? Terrorism.
Shooting up a gay nightclub because you hate gays? Terrorism.
Attacking the FBI office? Technically not direct terrorism as the FBI are not civilians, but it indirectly is as the intent was to put fear into ideological opponents (belief that Biden and “liberals” instructed FBI to raid Trump). His social media postings made that clear.
It isn’t a difficult concept. Unless you somehow sympathize with the terrorist. Then words get twisted and mental gymnastics get put on display. Example: you in this thread.
So the assaults on Paul and the softball shooting you would classify as terrorists?
His neighbor beating the shit out of an idiot? Yes. Softball shooting is domestic terrorism 100%So the assaults on Paul and the softball shooting you would classify as terrorists?
You preconceived notion that I agree with the extreme right wing, is part of your problem, I also told you I don’t have the amount of hate in my heart like some of you do. BTW patients love meYou are flailing in this thread like a man falling out of a tree. Take a pill. Do you talk all your wild right wing politics to your patients? Never mind. You shouldn’t be trusted around sick people because of your political beliefs. It doesn’t matter if you’re good at your job or not.
Do you think the majority of domestic terrorists on 1/6 were Trump voters? And wasn’t he the head of the Republican Party on that day?So it’s ok to call people terrorists who clearly aren’t? People have obviously forgotten what happened to us on 9/11
That was a terrorist act. Imo.So the assaults on Paul and the softball shooting you would classify as terrorists?
Just wanted to make sure you are consistent. KudosYes. Why wouldn’t they be?
