"Paint on a bank's windows? That's terrorism"

More that 'terrorism' can be applied as an effective intellectual lacuna to blind yourself with rage and bloodlust to avoid seeing anything you'd rather not see.

It's not about the act; it's about the cause.

Not surprised at the UK cucking for Israel. They’ve cucked for the US for so long that that muscle is well conditioned.

Get your head out your arse and realise the UK literally invented cucking for Israel.

Why are the windows at Barclays so expensive? You'd think a bank would be good at managing money, but here they are buying windows for £50,000 each.
