The FBI says it's this Michael Walzer says some jerk you probably haven't heard of posted:It’s not hard to recognize; we can safely avoid postmodernist arguments about knowledge and truth. Terrorism is the deliberate killing of innocent people, at random, in order to spread fear through a whole population and force the hand of its political leaders. But this is a definition that best fits the terrorism of a national liberation movement (the Irish Republican Army, the Algerian National Liberation Front [F.L.N.], the Palestine Liberation Organization, the Basque Separatist Movement, and so on). There is also state terrorism, commonly used by authoritarian and totalitarian governments against their own people, to spread fear and make political opposition impossible: the Argentine “disappearances” are a useful example. And, finally, there is war terrorism: the effort to kill civilians in such large numbers that their government is forced to surrender. Hiroshima seems to me the classic case. The common element is the targeting of people who are, in both military and political senses, noncombatants: not soldiers, not public officials, just ordinary people. And they aren’t killed incidentally in the course of actions aimed elsewhere; they are killed intentionally. I think it's worth discussing because it's obviously a politically charged word used frequently to identify people we do or do not like, but it's used inconsistently for political effect. In the wake of 1/6 the chuds who tried to do idiot revolution were called terrorists... were they though? Please refrain from discussion about lemons.

The pope's doctor had covid when he died, but he didn't die from it. He died of blood loss because he shot himself with the pope's gun. Pretty sure that's not terrorism, but the details are still emerging

this article doesn't try to define terrorism, but it explains the legal definitions that people are throwing around, if you want more pedantic distinctions https://www.themarshallproject.org/2021/01/08/a-civilian-s-guide-to-insurrection-legalese
