Because the ruling class is terrified

Because they don't like him.

I mean Dylan fucking Roof shot dead 9 black people and they didn't consider it terrorism.

"They're making us CEO's afraid, terrified even, so he's clearly a terrorist. The implication that the working class could actually fight back against the systemic oppression we inflict on them? That's horrifying. We can't allow them to believe they could ever fight back. Make an example of this person."

The rich assholes or something

Crimes against the ruling class are more harshly punished than crimes against the plebs.

They also don't charge people who blow up abortion clinics with terrorism either. They haven't since the 60s - 70s.

If you look it up the courts have been petitioned several times to associate abortion clinic bombings with Christian terrorism but they keep refusing to call it what it is.

After reading about that fiasco I have very little faith our government actually has a working definition of terrorism that doesn't shift at their convenience.

Local militias are perfectly acceptable as per the second amendment, as long as they're "well regulated", whatever that means...

When someone from America says they Italian or whatever they aren't talking about nationality, it's about ancestry, where your family came from not what county you were born in

Dude's name is Luigi and his last name sounds like a pizza restaurant. That settles it for me, thank you very much.

According to Italian law if you have Italian ancestry, you're Italian. There's a whole process (with many asterisks and exceptions) in which you can apply to get your Italian passport

"I learned it from watching you, ok?!?!?"

They charged him with terrorism so a regular jury won't get to make that decision. It will be a federal grand jury of selected stooges, and maybe even a secret court.

Dark humor is like food, not everyone gets it.

Yes because it specifically allows examining his motive from a political angle which allows the defense to question the character of the guy he shot, which increases the chance of nullification.

George Washington used violence to advance his political agenda of a sovereign USA. Was George a terrorist?
