"IMO, acts of violence to advance political point are not justified in a democratic society, which has avenues to resolve things non-violently."

I agree.

"But there are acts that can be justified."

As long as civilians aren't deliberately targeted or an indifference to civilian casualties, I agree also.

But, this shouldn't count as terrorism. It debases the term.

But there are acts that can be justified. Norwegian resistance blew up a bunch of things during Nazi occupation.

It depends on your perspective. To the Germans, they were terrorists.
