re: Right wing terror attacks. The numbers don't match the narrative

quote:

---

The UN keeps track of terror attack fatalities worldwide. Rate is down by 50% over the last two years. Amounts to 45000 lives saved. Could it be a result of Trump foreign policy. If not, whats a better reason

---

Trump foreign policy is garbage.

quote:

---

was stating his end goal

---

He actually stated that america would fight and keep that right. He said specifically that NZ was too cucked, and would lose their guns eventually. He was just accelerating that. He believes america will eventually fight for thier gun rights, and retain them. He was just accelerating that. He wants it all to happen now. So in the chaos fascism will fill the power vacuum. He was a loon.

True, and yet it's an improvement over past administrations (both D and R). That's what's so sad.

---

He was going good for the most part, until he totally cucked after the fake Syria withdrawal. Look who he has in key positions now. Unbelievable 180.

Right wing radicalization*

Is merely a symptom of the pervasive Marxist anti-white anti-west ideology through our entire society. From education, to government.

Though as i have said. Fascist (not a right wing) radicals will be more, and more common.

These people, Like the shooter, are a symptom of the globalist marxist agenda. The fact that the far left is mainsteam world wide will only breed this more, and more. You being one who champions the ideals believe you have no cause in this rise, but it is specifically because of you, and the leaders you champion.

All racism, hate and violence is the image of the Democratic Party. All historical oppressors are the image of the Democratic Party.

Correct:

KKK
Jim Crow
Citizen Internment
Not supporting the CRA
Shouting down opposing views on college campuses
Violent protest against opponents

Fascism was adored by FDR.

Please, keep doing the "Dems are the Real Racists" thing. It's very effective and not at all retarded.

Facts are hard to deal with in a debate. Show me where the Democrats are not the party of the racist.

Fascism requires a strong central govt. one of the main tenants of conservatism is small govt. how do you figure fascism is right wing?

How you morons keep assuming that right-wing means "small-government laissez-faire capitalist" is beyond me. The traditional notion of conservationism also includes monarchical systems as well as reliance on the church. Hence why the three Fascist negations are anti-conservative (as in the church and monarchs), anti-liberalism (or materialism) and anti-communism. Fascist groups were more willing to work with traditional conservatives (like in Austria) or the church (like in Italy) or with big business or with socialists off-shoots, like the syndicalists. Your notion is one type of right-wing belief, but if we are using the spectrum model, it's closer to the center-right, while fascists are generally considered the hard right. This discussion itself shows the limits of using the spectrum debate, but nonetheless, if we are using those terms, we should be strict with them. My view is that modern governmental ideology is all a buffet, and groups pick and choose what they like with little thought of the historical justification, which the shooter's manifesto supports 100%. What I actually saw in the shooter's manifesto was something I've seen in the literature of Islamist terror groups, especially Muslim Brotherhood, hearkening for a lost past with no idea how to get there. In that sense, Islamists and ethnonationalists are closer to one another than those ethnonationalists are to market liberals for example.

Welp, pretty hard to argue against what you just said.

Politards BTFO.

Watch how crazy these guys will get when I saw that Islamic terrorism is a right-wing phenomenon. The overlaps in terms of themes between Islamist literature and ethnonationalist literature was surprising even to me. Both show massive amounts of chauvinism, and both represent world orders that never existed in reality save for representations of them in certain media. Both tend to exploit young men who feel untethered to their immediate world, but otherwise seem well-adjusted. There is little consideration of class dynamics, which range from denying they exist to outright ignoring them. There is rarely ever a cogent economic philosophy.

One of the key elements is always a version of weaponized nostalgia, which portrays the past as simpler and less complicated. I'd even argue that within something explicitly religious, like the Islamists, there is a deep cynicism and nihilism that drives the violence, as I think that cynicism is a result of realizing they couldn't work within political systems and thus had to resort to violence, which is a deeply cynical move. That they rarely consider the effects of that violence shows some of that nihilism too.

This woman named Deeyah Khan did a documentary on Islamists and white supremacists, which I hope is the starting off point for more discussions about the overlaps. Because if we see the same societal "malaise" for lack of a better word, in remarkably different societies, what is the cause? The Marxists would most definitely say that it is the fault of capital, because of its notions of constant revolutions, which preserved nothing. I imagine a Marxist would say that because what one attempts to conserve each generation becomes meaningless when so much changes so quickly.

I don't know if I would agree with that, because I think the answer might be something more primal, something to do with our biology perhaps. But I think there is a connection there worth studying.
