It's still fucking stupid from a mile far
Like, if they were just doing terrorism in euro countries in payback for mega-terrorism and colonization, OK, kinda understandable. But further destabilizing under-western-attack countries while doing civilian massacres, where the fuck do you square the liberation there? Or destroying/looting cool archaelogical shit from pre-Islam millenias?
You know how western teenagers have obscure esoteric fascist ideologies that was invented by some guy in the 1950s or a blogger in 2008? Islamic terrorism is basically that put into practice. Some of the sects deviate so far that they become “enlightened” and think everyone must die for a better world. Pol Pot but in a desert
Nobody does this. Attacking your "oppressors" out of a desire for payback is an almost non-existent phenomenon. I know it makes sense to the people here but IRLs have different minds
Almost every act of terroristic violence is powered by delusion, not some kind of rational revenge
Sad
yeah idk. there are women into that tradwife shit too and those reactionary christians are only separated from terrorism or destroying "pagan" artifacts by the frequency of deeds.
