My issue is the blanket term "Terrorist" which could mean anything these days. Even worse it's is used by intellectually bankrupt Governments to "dehumanize" Potential enemies and deny "Individuals" of due process

So as much as i hate groups like isis, I hate even more people who use the term "terrorist/terrorism" as a blanket term. Because of the societal consequences of "dehumanizing" terminology that excuses Authority figures to silencing legitimate discourse.
