I wish we would stop using that word 'agitator', while I understand the subjective idea that someone is just trying to stir up trouble, it kind of undermines the idea that we should be able to express opinions no matter how distasteful.
and apparently it now a perfectly valid reason for the state to execute someone without being charged or a trial.
Nobody said start showing up and shooting ICE. I simply said, "met" in the sense of standing your ground. ICE would not be a problem if they did things legally, like they did under Obama.
I consider the term to be a label of a bad-faith actor vs. someone who holds genuine conviction that the "agitating action" is a good thing.
A Chinese bot farmer who says we should be shooting each other? Agitator.
A neighbor who says "If I see LEO murder someone, I'm taking them on"? Not an agitator.
where is the line? I was fine with the word until it started being used to justify killing innocents
anyone promoting for people to start showing up and shooting at law enforcement, even if it is ICE, is what if not an agitator?
