Ah that's right, when the people disagree with the ruling class and the oligarchs bank-rolling them, it's called "extremism."

See also: "climate change" and "genocide"

Oh there's no extremism.. this is a normal reaction

[–] artifex@piefed.zip 5 points 39 minutes ago

It’s much harder to arrest someone for “normal reaction “

People get so extremist when I set fire to their property.

I feel threatened. It is unsafe that they are allowed to be angry at me.

Extremism is whenever someone disagrees with the government.

The more they disagree the more extreme they are.

Why doesn’t anyone write about anti human tech extremism?

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 1 points 22 minutes ago

Because the anti human tech extremists own the media.

"The majority of people are against this? Nah, we're right and this is just some kind of extremism."

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago

What's considered extreme is a very subjective thing. That idea is often weaponised against the otherwise ignorant

Helpful reminder to everyone

When the bread starts to get expensive, you can't have the masses protesting against the circus. Doesn't surprise me in the least that they'd come down hard on the anti-tech crowd.

Oh, US law enforcement said so? They're a trustworthy lot, right? 🙄
