Viking_HippieSteve Bannon: "The public schools and private schools ought to be designated as terrorist organizations too"
Is “terrorist” their new code word for “I don’t like this”
That’s the way it’s been used in the US since 9/11/2001. Not sure about other places.
Brits have been using it that way for centuries. Go dig through papers from the 1800s, you’ll find them describing anyone resisting their colonialism as “terrorists”. Legally, the US is working from the exact same definition that British common law uses.
That makes sense, since, as far as i can tell, the U.S. seems to be a modern hybrid of the British empire which spawned it and the German war machine it assimilated into itself about 80 years ago.
