Has anyone heard about the FBI and the DHS partnering up to combat extremist gamers?

I did a quick search so let me know if I missed any info.

And this is what they declare makes you an extremist/terrorist.

Looking a bit more it looks like the U.S. Government Accountability Office has made a list of actions the FBI and DHS do that involves strategies and goals for sharing threat information with social media and gaming companies.

Should normal people need to worry that they get accidentally put on the FBI & DHS lists?

If you’re not a violent extremist than you probably don’t need to be worried about getting put on the violent extremist lists.

Yes I agree as well. I guess this is more of a paranoia idea. In the other category it says “Such agendas combine personal grievances and beliefs with political concerns and aspects of conspiracy theories, as well as bias related to religion, gender, or sexual orientation.”

Correct me if I’m wrong but if someone gaming says that they believe a certain religion is trash, they would be put on their lists? And if that’s the case who decides what is allowed? And what is a terrorist remark? Is there a fine line or is it an arbitrary line?

Kevin rudd: Trump is a destructive president, traitor to the west, poor preparedness during COVID, trying to cling to power with the insurrection.
Australia calling it how it is. - Things that even Democrats haven't even been willing to state.

Trump: I don't know much about him, he isn't the brightest bulb, he is a little nasty.
Simple statements as expected from Donald, he doesn't like to use words.

Kevin Rudd is actually a very intellectual, educated individual with a very strong vocabulary... And also bi-lingual.
He started out as a farmer and was broke and worked his way up, that requires more brain-cells than being spoon fed from family.

Really hope Trump doesn't make his way to the top again.

Hm, so let's see...

MAGA supporters would certainly fit in there.

Racially or ethically motivated: Considering the amount of white supremacists supporting the movement or the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, a big

Anti-Government or anti-authority violent extremism: January 6 insurrection, anyone? Big fat

Animal rights or environmental violent extremism: wanting to destroy wind generators in favor of coal and petrol power: ✅

Abortion-related violent extremism: Wanting to make abortions illegal even in cases of rape or incest: ✅

All other domestic terrorist threats: Gun violence against minorities, like the Colorado Springs Nightclub shooting or trying to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer: ✅

So then wouldn't communists, theosists, oligarchists, democrats, republicans, dictator supporters, genocide supporters (and non-supporters), 1984, farmers, pro-choicers, battery supporters, those that gain in stocks, anyone that has conspiracy theories involving a branch of government, people who say there are more than two genders, people who say there are only two genders, peaceful protests, panderers, black only organizations (any color of skin), Catholics, Muslims, other Christians, Atheists, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, etc be under investigation too?

Where is the line?

These plans for the FBI and DHS seem like this can lead to a disruption of the 1st Amendment.

Bruh...Mike Johnson has blocked almost everything the Dems have put forward and now she's pushing a motion to vacate because he's passing a bill to avoid a government shutdown? She is insane, Lol. I hope the Democrats tell Johnson they will only save him if he allows the foreign aid bill to go to the floor immediately afterwards.
