What does “far-left terrorism” actually mean? The answer depends heavily on whether you are talking about security terminology or political rhetoric. In the traditional counterterrorism sense, terrorism requires violence or the credible threat of violence to achieve political goals. It does not mean: - gathering in the street, - protesting government policy, - criticizing capitalism, - opposing a war, - supporting unions, - being anti-establishment, - using radical political language. Peaceful protest — even very angry protest — is normally a protected democratic activity.
