Miguel Afonso CaetanoRepublicans: "Terrorism is every act of civil disobedience that we don't agree with. And if you don't agree with that, go to Venezuela, Cuba, or China" --->"The government will now need to prove (in the case of American citizens) that individuals plotted against Tesla and undertook their laws to influence government policy. Even if what they did can be argued to meet the dictionary definition of terrorism, its legal application would give the government a frankly terrifying amount of power. Trump is now unleashing the deep state (their deep state) to go after associates and others who support or contemplate similar acts, in other words to criminalize and then stigmatize opposition.When I reported last month that FBI Director Kash Patel’s vow to carry out “the world’s largest manhunt” against “anyone that wishes to do harm to our way of life,” I warned that Americans would be caught in the dragnet.

WulfricPSA: By definition, "civil disobedience" is a form of peaceful protest. Riots, arson/fire-bombing, willful destruction of property. etc. are not civil disobedience. I find it disturbing that many people are conflating these things.<a href="https://beige.party/tags/CivilDisobedience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CivilDisobedience</a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Protest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Protest</a>

Scott 🇮🇱🇺🇦🗽<a href="https://babka.social/@Leah" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Leah</a> Sure, although generally speaking, that would be against the law. Somebody fired for refusing to execute illegal orders is already a <a href="https://babka.social/tags/hero" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hero</a>; I wouldn’t ask them to further put themselves at risk. And then there’s a whole theoretical discussion about what constitutes legitimate <a href="https://babka.social/tags/civilDisobedience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#civilDisobedience</a> in the face of an immoral order vs. simply breaking the law. I would agree however that the severity of the situation is such that a great deal of civil disobedience is called for.
