If the note is real, he made it explicitly clear that was his intention.
As to your edit, why use such a specific and esoteric term like that? Just say “assassination”. It just feels like the comment I was responding to was cheapening what those movements were by trying to make them contend as something they were not
Yea that’s fair. The reason I said that is bc he’s not a Marxist or anarchist and I suppose I assume a certain leftist position as a base for a “propaganda of the deed.” I guess what I was saying with the edit is that I feel like a lot of the times we have personal assumptions baked into these definitions in our minds that don’t always line up.
An also a lot of the time on the internet the definitions of things get more generalized over time, take what the internet did to concepts like “emotional labor” and other such stuff as an example. If that makes sense
Serious question: does the term “propaganda of the deed” imply the person is on the left? Could a fascist not do propaganda of the deed for the sake of fascism?
