Title: You might be a domestic terrorist if...
Post by: casascius on April 04, 2011, 09:11:34 PM
I just had to post this.

They probably mean to add to this list (of "characteristics that qualify a person as a potential domestic terrorist"), someone who uses Bitcoin or posts on the Bitcoin forums.

That sounds like me minus the religious views and the NWO conspiracy stuff. I'm not saying there is no NWO but I haven't seen any credible evidence. No, I'm not interested in arguing about it either. I'll just have to keep waiting for someone to make a reasonable case and hope that I'm right until then. I'm also running a Bitcoin exchange now exactly because Bitcoin promotes liberty. So, if anyone wants to donate to me in case I need legal defense, please do so. My address is in my signature and I will not spend any of the donations unless I get arrested.

Sounds like everyone on the boards minus the religious views for a lot.

Basically, if you are smart and capable of independent critical thinking you are a "domestic terrorist". As simple as that.

Hasn't every group ever in power hated those people?

If you need an official source to determine if you should turn yourself in, consider these:

MIAC report on the modern miltia (http://www.scribd.com/doc/13290698/The-Modern-Militia-MovementMissouri-MIAC-Strategic-Report-20Feb09-) Particular attention to page 6

And from the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force:

Yes, for no other reason that before they were in power, they were those people.  And more of those people are the greatest threat to (now their) status quo.

The problem with figuring out the Powers That Be and their MO is that all the information is really spread out. Figuring out just how Monsanto, the gov't, and the mass media work together is a difficult problem. The best summary I've found is "What You've Been Missing" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SD5-xfbcJI

That assumes that there is collusion, when there isn't a need for it.  The stand-alone complex theory is more likely.

You might be a terrorist if you are capable of critical thinking

But then again, you might be a domestic terrorist if the opposite is true. I'd post a picture, but I don't want to spread any idiot's name or image. Any of us can think of some stupid person, incapable of any original thought who uses violence to spread a "message."

Oh, I agree, my phrasing was poor. 'Work together' does imply collusion. The Powers That Be are all acting in their own self-interest, which unfortunately is not 'our' self-interest.
