Thurmal34 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 On 8/21/2018 at 3:42 PM, DC Tom said: 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. 2 minutes ago, LABillzFan said: 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. So white nationalists, in your above stated view, are leftists?

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between "terrorist" and "freedom fighter" usually boils down to who wins and who loses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
