EDIT: The FBI has since corrected themselves and are now treating it as an act of terror.
The FBI is investigating the NO attack as an act of terrorism. This is how misinformation spreads.
At the time the N.O. Mayor's office was arguing that it was not a terrorist attack. The FBI is now looking into it as a terror attack. Things change. It happens.
EDIT: Sorry, busy morning and got it turned around. Mayor's office said it wasn't terrorism, FBI said it wasn't but has since changed their tune.
Shocker that when big, horrendous events happen that it's all chaos and people not knowing what's happening for hours and hours afterwards.~~ You know, not everything is a big fucking conspiracy. Sometimes its just different groups operating on different levels of available information and on different opinions on said information in the immediate aftermath of a horrific disaster.. I doubt the New Orleans mayor spends a ton of time working with the FBI, a completely separate organization.~~Nobody knew what the fuck was happening in the first hours after 9/11 either, so much so that they changed laws about information sharing between organizations due to the lack of clear communications at the time, which only ever sort of helped.See also: A BBC journalist saying WTC 7 had collapsed while WTC 7 was standing behind her in the background. The BBC was working off an incorret Reuters report when they made the report and I don't expect a foreign news correspondent to be super familiar with which building WTC 7 actually was. Mistakes and miscommunications happen.I take it all back, it's because the guy is fucking Muslim. I guess the War on Terror never ended.
Hard to get anything right when you’re rushing to push your viewpoint, huh?

The FBI is investigating the deadly New Orleans incident at an “act of terrorism,” the bureau said in a statement.
“This morning, an individual drove a car into a crowd of people on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing a number of people and injuring dozens of others,” the FBI said in a statement. “The subject then engaged with local law enforcement and is now deceased. The FBI is the lead investigative agency, and we are working with our partners to investigate this as an act of terrorism.”
I guess all the "journalists" being on Bluesky isn't enough for it to not be filled to the brim with bullshit, too.
The subject then engaged with local law enforcement and is now deceased
It makes it sound like the cops wouldn't have done anything if the guy hadn't brought the fight to them.
Also, unless there has been a recent development, last I heard on the two shot cops was they were in stable condition, not dead.
The cops being idiots doesn't make this misinformation xD
They really are arguing that murking a CEO has more potential to change things than just about anything else.
Our ownership class and the institutions that obey them in favor of good governance are due full recognition. Should all acquaintance be forgot, the CIA extrajudicial detention and
enhanced interrogationtorture program was completely developed not because that's a good way to get intelligence (it's not) but because some rich people were sore about 9/11 and wanted to see Arab Muslims suffer, whether they were related to the event or not. (Compare and contrast price-tag killings in Palestine.)The escalation of charges against Luigi Mangione to terrorism are not due to any evidence, and in fact prosecutors and attorneys general have already weighed in that Murder One will be difficult to prove (NYC has a tightly constrained definition of M1. Assuming they have sound evidence linking Mangione to the crime -- they may not -- Murder Two is the the most likely conviction.)
It was noted on the day of the attack that certain hate crime homicides in NYC were ignored in news media. A fellow was shanked for not being sufficiently white by a white supremacist, and that incident is not being considered grounds for terrorism, even though the hate-crime aspects of the incident are already evident. What's the difference? Mangione attacked someone of the ownership class, and they have influence enough to corrupt our justice system while we watch.
All I wanna say is that they don't really care about us
Yeah because the ruling class only feels terrorized by one of them.
Dead school children is just an unfortunate reality of our glorious regime! A small price owner class is willing to pay.
Can we have a place for not boring dystopia now? This is getting a bit riveting
What is the purpose of the word "terrorist" orher than to legitimize violence done by militaries of recognized governments?? When both are essentially the same?
Does it need another purpose?
It's not classed as terrorism unless there was a CEO in the crowd /s
Otherwise it's just sparkling freedom of speech with guns
Please get it out of your mind that there is anything here about justice… it’s not about justice, it’s about power. It always has been, the continued fake shock of this only continues to be unproductive whining. There is no one that is confused about this, there are those who see it for what it is and those who are willingly ignorant.
I don't know if it's wholly unproductive. Memes like this can stoke stochastic violence, but hopefully pointed at people who deserve violence. If someone sees this and decides "Fuck it, I'm going to murder an health insurance executive" then that's probably a net positive.
what's the pool up to on whether the actual terrorist in this case is a nazi/trumpling
Yeah, these kinds of attacks are almost always fascists. Cars are fascist. Car attacks are dumb/cowardly enough only for fash...
Apparently this doesn't refer to the New Orleans truck attack, since the FBI is investigating that one as an act of terrorism. Must be a different one.
They are now treating it as an act of terror but the original statement was that it was not an act of terrorism. This changed after the screenshot was taken.
EDIT: Below is a screenshot of reports at the time, before the FBI changed their tune.
FBI suspects terrorism??? They're both terrorism. It's not difficult to understand
Lol they're both incel terrorists.
Found the shill account
Aww did I insult your wittle incel terrorists?
