Great!

I am glad you agree that by your (the FBI's current) definition, most police in the US are terrorists, every President going back to at least JFK is a terrorist, everyone who violently resisted the Nazis were terrorists, and every single protest everywhere, ever, that has involved any single member of that protest being charged with resisting arrest has also been terrorism.

I didn't agree with any of that but I won't disagree either.

You said 'we are in agreement' to my last post in this thread, and my last post in this thread pointed out that all of those scenarios are terrorism with the definition that you chose as 'pretty much the definition of terrorism'.

So yes, you did agree.

But now you don't agree, but also do not disagree.

... Could it possibly be the case that the definition of terrorism you chose is a bit too broad?

You said 'we are in agreement'

I was extremely specific as to what I was agreeing with, as you well know, but now are trying to intentionally misrepresent the situation in bad faith, which is typically my cue to peace out so, peace ✌️
