The Persistent Push to Depict Luigi Mangione and His Supporters as Terrorists

Trump calls them extremists. Mainstream media casts them as unhinged. We saw something else at a protest for Luigi Mangione.
They keep using that word "Terrorist." In 2001 my dad told me that "terrorist" is going to be used to describe anyone who dissents. I learned what dissent meant in 5th grade.
"Terrorist," "Anarchist," "Communist," "Negro," "Redskin," "Witch." Arguably it's not anyone who dissents, it's anyone who has a difference from the Puritanical point of view.
We're extremists because we resist those who claim authority. Authoritarians are a disease that afflicted society, and will kill us all if we let it.
First time I've seen witch tossed in the same sentence like that, but I love and approve it.
I'm a clever wordsmith when I have the inspiration to be.
