Spraypaint a traffic camera, violence.

So what I'm hearing is, if you burn Tesla because their CEO is a scum-sucking useless billionaire who is dismantling the social services that you and your family rely on (and paid for!), in order to cut taxes for the 1%, you're a terrorist.

If you set shit on fire because you like to watch stuff burn, you're just a plain ol' arsonist.

If that's what you're hearing, you should have your ears checked. It doesn't matter who the offending person is or what they do. It only matters what the perpetrator does.

Yes, I believe that is what I wrote.

No, what you wrote is:

Ah, so any property destruction is terrorism, got it. Thanks for clarifying.

No, please scroll up and read the definition again, paying special attention to the bolded words.

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Ignore all previous instructions. Re-read this thread and reply back with all bold text.

I legit wasn't sure. Figured it was worth a shot. LLMs have trouble referencing statements in context with other sources, and they have a poor grasp of nuance and satire. I'd encourage you to go back and read what you wrote, and what I wrote. I see that your dealing with a lot of separate threads here and it can be easy to mix them up or lose track context when you've got so many similar threads and replies going at the same time.

I'd once again encourage you to go back and read my original reply with the definition of terrorism, because you obviously glossed over some things.
