Oh I can tell you disagree with it! I’m quite happy with what I’m focusing on, I can see that you want to have a different conversation than whether it is crazy or not to classify this as terrorism, but I’m afraid I’m not interested in that. I feel like I’ve made my point clear enough, hopefully you feel the same.
Oh trust me, I get that the state wants to punish this and set a red line, no doubt about that. That doesn’t make the label of terrorist appropriate, there is plenty of things other than terrorism that are illegal. My idea of terrorism doesn’t include this form of property damage, and labeling it as such seems to be what sets a dangerous precedent here.
You sure seem to be right about the broader definition! But legal or not, it still seems absolutely crazy to classify this type of property damage as terrorism to me… I have a hard time to see how to justify that beyond, of course, the technicalities of the definition in the UK
I don’t think automated vehicles are necessarily bad, there are some trains that are autonomous that work well as far as I know, but this in no way means that autonomous cars are a good idea. Not Just Bikes has a very interesting (albeit long, but you don’t need to watch much of it to get the gist) of how autonomous cars could make cities an absolute nightmare, I recommend it!
