Just gonna add here that Reuter's downgrading of the word "terrorist" to "extremist" is a load of BS.

Reuter's has zero credibility left after falsely reporting the Tel Aviv soccer fans attacking people in Amsterdam as a pogrom against Jews.
Absolute scum of the earth, if they said the sky was blue I wouldn't believe them.
This is kind of unrelated, but I lost trust in reuters when they did an “investigative piece” on a scientist claiming he was “harassed” by patients, which was basically a hit piece on an entire illness (everyone with it). The “harassment” in question was people asking for data to be released on a study that led to disability benefits being removed. Low and behold, once the data was released (after a multiyear court battle) it was found to be very manipulated and the study went down the trash. (Study was funded by the disability insurance obviously).
Reuters never reported on the fact a court found those allegations “harassment” were “without proof”, at best, “grossly exaggerated” and done “with malicious intentions”. Or the fact the reanlyses of the data used in that study came to the opposite conclusions.
investigative piece
if a wire service disseminates opinions they then get reported as facts.
They have a single job and stepping out of their lane makes them worse than useless.
Also, their webpages usually break Wayback machine archiving, so they can absolutely fuck off right down the memory hole imo
I expect the teacher will get their presidential pardon soon.
Civil war is inches away. It might be a decade or two, but it's also at any point almost from here on out. Prepare and organize.
And also keep in mind that preparing and organizing effectively is one of the best ways of making civil war less likely.
Depending on how you prepare and organize, it can also make it more likely.
I know your joking but there were no charges nor would they be pardonable by the president. The governor of that state could though.
This is a weird item to add in the "context" section, Reuters:
Incidents raising alarm over antisemitism include threats of violence against Jews..
Feels spot on for what they've been doing
