You are all falling for fake news clickbait.
"Loser terrorists must be dealt with in a much tougher manner," he wrote. "The internet is their main recruitment tool which we must cut off & use better!"
He doesn't mean cut off civilian access in the USA or in the UK, if he meant shut down the Internet he wouldn't have added the "we must use it better" at the end of the sentence.
Why are everyone getting so excited about it? It's a nothing burger...
- jandrese 9y agoI agree with your general sentiment, but it's still dangerous for governments to unilaterally decide that certain people won't have a voice. Who decides who the "terrorists" are? It's easy to agree when you're talking about ISIS recruiting kids in the US and convincing them to shoot up schools. It's harder to agree when you're talking about people who chain themselves to Redwoods so they won't be logged (aka ecoterrorists).
