- Thomas812 6y agoHaha good one The Orlando shooting + 9/11 as I said earlier covers more than the entirety of right wing extremists in the last 20 years.
- throwaway4666 6y agoIt's not that hard to look up and prove you wrong mate: https://www.euractiv.com/section/justice-home-affairs/news/far-right-terrorism-has-more-than-tripled-over-last-four-years-report-warns/ https://www.euractiv.com/section/justice-home-affairs/news/f... >“In 2018, far-right terrorist attacks accounted for 17.2% of terrorist incidents in the West. By contrast, attacks by Islamist groups accounted for 6.8% of attacks, and attacks not attributed to any group accounted for 62.8% of incidents in the West,” the report has found.
- Thomas812 6y agoSo what you mean is that a group that's about 100 times smaller only commits twice fewer terrorist attacks? Sounds like they are overepresented by a factor of 50... And therefore stop and search overrepresentation should be 50.
- throwaway4666 6y agoYou're grasping at straws here. How do you even determine the size of the 'groups'?
- Thomas812 6y agoSo when it comes to accusing airports agents of overrepresenting the group in their security search, you know the group size. However when someone points out terrorist attacks you suddenly don't know the group size anymore? Funny. How come you know they are overepresented in airport security picking?
- enriquto 6y agoIslamists are also right wing extremists. They are just as nuts as right wing extremists from other religions. Not sure why you need so much to separate their acts of terror. It's just insane people who have imaginary friends on the sky that guide them to kill real people.
- Thomas812 6y agoAre you pretending that anti-lgbt or antisemitic rhetoric is not present in the left? Have you read a single recent history book about the 20th century?
- enriquto 6y agoWho's talking about the left here? I did not say anything about "the left", and much less pretend anything about them. I just said that islamists are right wing extremists, and they do themselves say it so. Their main fight is precisely against the left-induced degeneracy of society.
