I'm still inclined to say it's less "motive" and more "organization."  Terrorism traditionally isn't in support of a belief, it's in pursuit of some stated political goal.  Anyone can be angry and disaffected and commit a crime.  Terrorists pursue a greater purpose in their own minds.

 

By this definition, terrorism is the same as a freedom fight. 

 

Not it saying I agree or disagree, but based off this, the margin of right and wrong is THIN.

No, my view is that the only people who focus on skin color all the time are leftists.

 

But hey...at least you didn't say you're an independent, so you've got that going for you. Which is nice. :lol:

 

So white nationalists, in your above stated view, are leftists?

 

Want a dreidel for the incoming spin?

Nationalists = leftist

 

Do you need a course in civics?  Common man.  

 

Nationalism is a strong federal government, an authoritarian state. That is the epitome of a left leaning Democrat, whether socialist, fascist or nationalist.

It is.  You think Francis Marion, Nelson Mandela, and Yitzhak Shamir weren't terrorists?

Yep.  The difference between "terrorist" and "freedom fighter" usually boils down to who wins and who loses.

Correct.  The alt-right is a party of big, activist government.

 

They support a high minimum wage, public and private sector unions, and some support single payer health care.

 

The are concerned with group identity, rather than individual autonomy, and don't subscribe to the philosophy of inalienable rights.

This should be a bigger story.

 

The five adults living at a New Mexico compound where 11 starving children were found allegedly planned to attack a major hospital in Atlanta, court documents show

The whole thing seems so strange to me, to actually label themselves as terrorists.  I'd imagine that they've usually have some cause that they've deluded themselves into believing.  But here, if they actually did label themselves as terrorists, they just want to watch the world burn.

That's not Islam or terrorism.  Soooo, want a Mulligan?

 

While I can see how you might assume ignorance, judging whitey's other posts,

 

I believe it was a failed attempt at humor.

The word "failed" is most likely the reason why. Either that or your fart cushion is worn out.
