There is nothing stochastic about either the CEO, Sam Altman or the warehouse cases. Pretty deterministic those.
Also wouldn't call it "terrorism". It is revolutionary action.
It's a perfectly normal Free Market Correction. When your policies are so reprehensible, that they spawn a customer so angry that they kill the CEO, that's the Free Market at work. Perfectly normal, and the way the Free Market is supposed to work.
That Free Market extends to the government, too. Eventually the citizens will get pushed around a little too much, and they will issue a Free Market Correction, which will be very unpleasant for those being corrected.
And the free market need a LOT of correction.
Yep. They put all their hopes into the Free Market, and have collected heavily on its benefits. Now they will have to experience the Free Market as it corrects, and finds its balance.
Sorry, MAGA, that's YOUR system. Remember that as you hear the blade shwish.
No, it's terrorism. The media has just turned that into a bad word for anything they don't like. The government using violence to make you follow the law? Also terrorism. Just read the definition. It's just been made to be that the word terrorism is only used for non-state violence. It's been turned into this purely evil force (typically done by brown people), rather than using the tools of violence to change behavior.
One man's revolutionary activist is anothers terrorist.
