Better not charge him with terrorism. I mean, unless Jeff Bazos was on the train.

Generally, the question should be: Was he trying to instill terror in a group of people to manipulate their behaviour? If the answer is "yes", then it was indeed terrorism and the charges should reflect that; otherwise not.

That's what the question should be, yes. But now it's only used if corporate America is the target. Actual acts of terrorism against us degens is just another Tuesday.
