#all 'terrorism' accusations are political & usually racialized obv

[girderednerve]

i am also really mad that luigi mangione has been accused of terrorism, but most of the reason i'm really mad about it is that prosecutors over-charge accused people all the time in order to extort them into accepting plea deals & waiving their right to a trial. 'terrorism' is an egregious, clearly political claim, but to me this charge reads as exactly in line with the same lazy cruelty of every DA's office, & most people do not get any attention or outrage for it
