Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>Republicans: "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" ---&gt;</p><p>"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.</p><p>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. But I had no idea how quickly."</p><p><a href="https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/trumps-domestic-war-on-terrorism" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">kenklippenstein.com/p/trumps-d</span><span class="invisible">omestic-war-on-terrorism</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Terrorism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Terrorism</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/CivilDisobedience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilDisobedience</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Activism</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/CivilLiberties" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilLiberties</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Authoritarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Authoritarianism</span></a></p>
