    Yeah the issue is somehow white nationalist mows down a mall = troubled teen, liberal (re: minority because nuance and reality are things they struggle to grasp) attacks on private property resulting in zero death or major injury = domestic terrorism.

    Iirc they didn’t even label the assassination attempt as domestic terrorism.

      Then there’s clearly a distinct and significant double standard at play here, which is 100% the actual problem.

        Yes that’s what the other person is saying. It is clearly domestic terrorism but because the left in large part feel it to be a moral action that it isn’t domestic terrorism and that’s just wildly idiotic. Almost to a person terrorists believe themselves to be doing something morally correct while also being intentionally morally abborant.

        It’s a very dumb term to use in earnest, just call them what they did and stop trying to make morality a legal question.
