    Well, look at that. We finally found what is needed to have a white “terrorist” instead of “someone with issues”: just target ultra rich people.

    The irony is that this was done to score propaganda points, but, and especially if Luigi keeps arguing the manifesto was fake and planted on him, this will make it harder for the charges to stick.

      How can you even prove it was planted. Its your word against the cops and well, we may know cops are lying but the court won’t care.

      They’re trying to end that, Republicans making the claim you can and should deny healthcare to prisoners

        No more healthcare, work without pay, convicted for bullshit reasons, locked up in conditions which are crimes against humanity… Americans call it correctional facilities, to cover up they are actually slave labor camps. Just like they do not torture, they call it “enhanced interrogation”. Even though it’s the same technique as torture, it’s ok now because it’s named differently. Because slave labor camps are named “correctional institute” it’s all good man!

    His lawyers should go for a defense of others defense. Millions of lives were in imminent danger. He had no choice but to act.

        well, unless it results in a mistrial we’ll find out how everybody in that courtroom feels about the trolley problem.

      If he can be charged as a terrorist, so can Rittenburg, the Jan 6th rioters, and school shooters

        One is a coordinated group working in lockstep to collapse everything as a primary political party that’s not only in power but in charge of every part of government.

        The other is a single guy who acted in the interest of average people by killing someone ‘valuable’

    And now the words “terrorist” and “hero” have become synonymous, undoing decades of 9/11 imperialist propaganda in one fell swoop.

    I mean I wish. But a man can dream.
