WORDS I WISH MORE PEOPLE USED CORRECTLY terrorism privilege refugee fascist sovereignty neoliberal literally populist treason

But refrigerator or horse is a literal concept but refugee isn’t. I’m from Bangladesh where America supported a coup in mid 70s. For some, is America the terrorist?
-
Refugee means someone forced to leave their country (by violence, natural disaster, etc.) It contrasts with internally displaced persons (left home for similar reasons, but still in country). There's also a formal international legal definition, as in "granted refugee status."
-
Supporting a coup isn't terrorism. It's supporting a coup. They're two different things. That doesn't mean either is good or bad. Moral judgment is different from classification.
-
But the term is an objective one. giving legitimacy to a coup after actively supporting isn’t terrorism? btw dnc will disagree with your assertion
-
Correct. Giving legitimacy to a coup is objectively not terrorism.

Okay !
