Correct.
With the demise of the Weathermen in 1975, most of the Radical Left eventually became rabid Right-Wingers during the Reagan years. It was all over.
The Plastic Hippies in college all took off their bell-bottoms, changed their majors to MBA or Law, and upon graduation put on 3-piece suits and began working hard at stabbing each other in the back to climb the corporate ladder. The rest of the country stopped listening to Folk Rock and began either dancing to Disco, or mashing on Metal, or Your God Forbid, LINE DANCING.
The True Hippies all moved to Portland and disappeared from the public consciousness and the Hollywood Hippies all turned to Crystal Power, macro-biotics, and Zen Buddhism.

This is the shitstorm Mango Mussolini has unleashed. I hope he’s very proud of himself, but I know that’s the case. It’s time for decent citizens to completely disown and repudiate his filthy beliefs and those of his bigoted, deluded followers. Let’s make it on November 8, shall we?

Let’s analyze this incident using The GOP Terrorism Checklist™:

  1. Violent extremists? (Check.)

  2. Ideologically motivated? (Check.)

  3. Meant to terrorize? (Check.)

  4. In the name of religion? (Check.)

  5. Committed by Muslims? D’oh! Missed it by that much…

Well, as everyone can plainly see, definitely not terrorism.

What I know is what I posted.

Someone posted it on another thread, I just found the story but didn’t save it because I have 5 things going on at once - sorry. They released a statement that there wasn’t going to be a statement today.

That’s all I know.

We don’t need to worry about Muslims destroying this country. The right wing loons will it for them

And of course it was the Fed’s breaking this up.
Surprised the Kansas law enforcement heroes didn’t tip off the suspects before the FBI raid.

If I was paying full attention I might have gotten that cause it occurred to me after I posted -

I’m scattered - we’re winding down our Taos life to shift it back to Dallas - gonna get there the day before the start of early voting.

It is dispiriting that even TPM falls into the trap of referring to attacks or planned attacks by Muslims as “terror” or “terrorism”, but fails to do so in cases like this, which clearly fit the definition of terrorism.
