The Christchurch mosque shooter who live-streamed the attack said "Subscribe to PewDiePie" right before carrying out the attack. His 87-page manifesto refers to a who's who of far-right pundits and Youtubers, like Ben Shapiro, Candace Owens, and others. This is stochastic terrorism. Sure, these people will cry and bemoan and condemn the attack, but there's no way they can evade the FACT that they influenced it. This has happened too many times before.

Who does Pew de pie follow on twitter? (abridged)

Ben Shapiro knows a thing or 2 about triggering mosque shooters.

I see Trump linked directly to Brietbart from his Twiiter account. A big fat wet kiss to Brietbart. The fact that he's advertising for them is pretty remarkable, but then what's really remarkable any more? He's just adding to his "state run" proxy media empire.

Brietbart is another cog in the Chaos Machine:

https://www.the-american-interest.com/2018/03/01/putins-strategy-chaos/

"For all of Russia’s weaknesses as a great power, the Kremlin thinks it possesses one key advantage in long-term competition with America and the democratic West: Russia is more cohesive internally and will thus be able to outlast its technologically superior but culturally and politically pluralistic opponents. In recent years, Putin, his chief military strategist Valery Gerasimov, and other Russian leaders have employed disinformation to spread chaos for strategic effect. The Kremlin’s goal is to create an environment in which the side that copes best with chaos (that is, which is less susceptible to societal disruption) wins. The premise is Huntingtonian: that Russia can endure in a clash of civilizations by splintering its opponents’ alliances with each other, dividing them internally, and undermining their political systems while consolidating its own population, resources, and cultural base. Such a strategy avoids competition in those areas where the Kremlin is weak in hopes of ensuring that, when confrontation does come, it will enjoy a more level playing field.

Strategies of chaos are not new; other great powers in history have sought to sow instability in neighboring states to enhance their own security. Sun Tzu, Clausewitz, and Haushofer all advocated the use of what we would now call information warfare to confuse and weaken a foe before attacking him militarily. In Russian strategic history in particular, there is a tradition of stoking chaos on the far frontier to keep rivals divided and feuding internally—and thus unable to combine forces against Russia.

But there are disadvantages. Chaos strategies tend to backfire: Efforts to sow instability in a neighbor’s lands can ricochet, eventually affecting the initiator. In the lead-up to World War I, for example, the Russian Empire employed an aggressive information warfare campaign aimed at splintering Austria-Hungary. The effort increased the instability of Russia’s own western regions and contributed to a surge of Bolshevism that forced the Russians out of the war. Indeed, in today’s war against Ukraine, Russia has sealed its borders against returning fighters lest they cause trouble at home.

Another problem with chaos strategies is that they involve a tactic—the purposeful use of disinformation—that tends to become more extreme with time. Methods of spreading disinformation that are initially surreptitious become more recognizable with use, so new and more drastic ones must be invented. In addition, since they are ultimately acts of war, it is hard to know when disinformation campaigns are preludes to kinetic operations. And by provoking counter-moves by their targets, they can trigger tests of strength, which these tactics were designed to avoid in the first place. Despite these potential pitfalls, the Kremlin is gambling that the West won’t recognize its strategy of sowing chaos or organize a sufficient response. It may be right."

In February 2013, General Valery Gerasimov—Russia’s chief of the General Staff, comparable to the U.S. chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff—published a 2,000-word article, “The Value of Science Is in the Foresight,” in the weekly Russian trade paper Military-Industrial Kurier. Gerasimov took tactics developed by the Soviets,

There you are w/ that silly , nonsensical word again - ' realm wing ' .

honestly, what's that even supposed to mean ? You'll never say, because it takes too many brain cells for you to formulate a coherent sentence.

I get it. I really do.

Shooter had a major brain malfunction, no doubt. He claimed specifically he was an " eco fascist " and " NOT a conservative " .

Who do you know that would call Trump supporters ' eco-fascists '??? No one.

Fact is, he didn't know right from wrong or right from left. He's synapses were fried, by some means.

It;s true: He called himself an "eco fascist"

He described his political evolution this way:

Quote:
I was a communist, then an anarchist and finally a libertarian before becoming an ecofsacist

He also described himself as a member of the new Knights Templar and a white man.

He may as well have thrown in antifa while he was at it, because he had a fruit salad of self-descriptions.

The reality is, whatever you call yourself - antifa, eco-fascist, jihadist, USMC, or white supremacist - when you start killing non-combatants in order to instill a sense of fear (the very definition of "shock and awe") you are a TERRORIST. Your cause, your organization, the "side" that you're on - doesn't matter. It's what you do that counts.

I think we would need to read his maifesto in order to grok the totality of his ideological evolution. However, as HE described it in that sentence, ECOFASCIST came last.

But the reality is, REAVERBOT, whatever cause(s) you attach yourself to, once you start terrorizing people for political ends that makes you - by definition- a terrorist.

I'm not sure that he was. I haven't looked into it, and his manifesto has been taken down, but he seemed to have a potpourri of reasons.

In any case, the fact remains that if you start terrorizing people for political ends - no matter what those ends might be - you are, by definition, a terrorist. I don't feel the need to try and create categories of "good" and "bad" terrorists. No matter how compelling you believe your cause to be (and I would imgaine that ALL terrorists believe that their cause is the most compelling cause possible!) just be prepared to be labelled as a terrorist if you engage in terrorism. It seems pretty clear to me.

Some kind of madman, he seemed drawn to extremism or violence, a terrorist, fascist who hated muslims and loved mass murder, that's about all I can say its hard to understand a mind like that. Seems mostly the rants of a madman and a lot of memes and crazy talk. The deadliest criminal act in New Zealand history. The last guy killed 6 some criminal Anderson guy but found not guilty of murder by reason of insanity, there were also family murders, hotel arson and an attack a mass shooting spree northeast of Dunedin in New Zealand. This one is probably greater than all other New Zealand mass murders combined.

Maybe it should be noted that he was not home-grown he was in a ways foregin, an Australian was arrested and charged with murder. People said there was more than one shooter but from the vid I streamed it seemed to be a lone guy with guns, he may have also planned to burn the mosque down from what I seen in the vid.

Quote:
KUHNER: How Obama arms al Qaeda
President Obama has crossed a moral red line. Recently, he did the unthinkable: He announced that the U.S. government would directly arm terrorist groups in Syria.

Mr. Obama said that he would waive a federal law designed to prevent weapons from being sent to designated-terrorist organizations. In particular, the president cited a provision in the Arms Export Control Act that enables him to provide assistance to outlawed groups, provided it is “essential to the national security interests of the United States.” Mr. Obama’s actions may be legal, but they are reckless, dangerous and will haunt America for years to come.

The administration’s goal is to provide military assistance to the Syrian opposition rebels, who are determined to overthrow strongman Bashar Assad. Syria’s bloody civil war has cost more than 100,000 lives and plunged the Arab nation into a sectarian bloodbath. Contrary to media spin, however, the anti-Assad rebels are not “moderates.” They are not seeking to forge an Arab Switzerland — a tolerant, multiethnic democracy.

Quote:
America has suffered a terror attack every year under Obama
America has now averaged one serious Islamic terrorist attack a year on President Obama’s watch, yet he still insists the threat from radical Islam is overblown and that he’s successfully protecting the nation.

If only hubris could be weaponized! In the wake of Omar Mateen’s Orlando massacre, Obama whined about growing criticism of his terror-fighting strategy. But boy, does he deserve it. His record on terrorism is terrible, and Hillary Clinton should have a tough time defending it.

Here we are in the eighth year of his presidency, and the nation has now suffered eight significant attacks by Islamist terrorists on US soil or diplomatic property — an average of one attack a year since Obama’s been in office, with each new attack seemingly worse than the last. [Here are the first seven]
December 2015: Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik, a married Pakistani couple, stormed a San Bernardino County government building with combat gear and rifles and opened fire on about 80 employees enjoying an office Christmas party. They killed 14 after pledging loyalty to ISIS. A third Muslim was charged with helping buy weapons.

July 2015: Mohammad Abdulazeez opened fire on a military recruiting center and US Navy Reserve center in Chattanooga, Tenn., where he shot to death four Marines and a sailor. Obama refused to call it terrorism.

May 2015: ISIS-directed Muslims Nadir Soofi and Elton Simpson opened fire on the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, shooting a security guard before police took them down.

April 2013: Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, Muslim brothers from Chechnya, exploded a pair of pressure-cooker bombs at the Boston Marathon, killing three and wounding more than 260. At least 17 people lost limbs from the shrapnel.

September 2012: Terrorists with al Qaeda in the Maghreb attacked the US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, killing the US ambassador, a US Foreign Service officer and two CIA contractors. Obama and then-Secretary of State Clinton misled the American people, blaming the attack on an anti-Muslim video.

November 2009: Army Maj. Nidal Hasan opened fire on fellow soldiers at Fort Hood, Texas, killing 13. Obama ruled it “workplace violence,” even though Hasan was in contact with an al Qaeda leader before the strikes and praised Allah as he mowed down troops.

June 2009: Al Qaeda-trained Abdulhakim Muhammad opened fire on an Army recruiting office in Little Rock, Ark., killing Pvt. William Long and wounding Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula.

So there you have it — an average of one serious terror strike against the United States every year on Obama’s watch. And we’re not even counting the underwear bomber, Times Square bomber, Fed Ex bombs and other near-misses.

Did Trump invite any neo-Nazi groups to the WH ?? He did not.

' Both sides ' is absolutely a honest and correct thing for the President to say. He was talking about those who want to preserve our historical markers as a part of our national story, as well as being sensitive to those who express the opinions that praising Confederates doesn't help us move forward, as a nation.

There are really good people on both sides. Just as he wasn't talking about the KKK / WNs, he also wasn't talking about the Antifa thugs, who came w/ clubs and chains to start violence. THOSE masked clowns, dressed all in black and equally full of hate aren't who Trump was praising either, so why do you exclude them, but assume he was ONLY talking about the other ?

Your logic is flawed.

Show me the evidence, then I'll make a judgement on Trump. So far, he's done , said nothing which remotely indicates he's anything close to what you're trying to claim.

Most of the terrorism today is caused by radical Muslims, and gang members, if you really want to call what's taking place in Chicago ' terrorism '. I think it is, but for some reason, the MSM wants to ignore all that.

I read an interpretation why this man fixed on Muslims: According to him, overpopulation is the main problem and nonwhites breed faster.

That's what I would have assumed was the link between ecoterrorism and killing Muslims, but since his manifesto has been taken down I suppose we'll never know.

Otoh he also wanted to spark a civil war in the USA, so it's possible that we could be arguing over his manifesto forever too

*****

Still, terrorism is a TACTIC, not a "side". It's been employed by the Irish (IRA), Muslims on both sides of the Sunni/Shia divide, nations like the USA and Saudi Arabia, far-left groups like Sendero Luminoso and the Black Bloc, and white power groups. It's ridiculous to try and paint one "side" as terrorist and another "side" as not when they both employ the same tactic.

What is the "cause" of terrorism?

It's when a person feels so righteous in their cause, and when they have so completely dehumanized the "other side", that they feel free to commit violence categorically against people who aren't committing violence against them.

Like when REAVERBOT advocates violence against people, not because they're committing violence but because he thinks that they're right-wingers who "deserve" violence. (REAVERBOT has advocated violence against white males more than once. As a reminder, REAVERBOT's justification of aggressive violence against white males prompted "Punch a Nazi" posts in reply.)

The specific "cause" doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if the terrorist's goal is Irish independence, or "freedom for the opppressed", or the greater glory of Allah, or the hegemony of white people ...

The "cause" of terrorism is radicalization of one's viewpoint, where one starts defining EVERYONE in terms of "sides", and then dehumanizing the other "side" to the point where their deaths are an acceptable tactic.

REAVERBOT is heading in that direction. Some of his posts advocating violence could be considered the beginnings of his own manifesto.

The best way to understand how this works is to see how it works in reverse: People who have been radicalized but who, thru circumstance, have been forced to communicate with an individual of the hated target group have at times broken out of their bubble and reversed their prejudices.

There are 2 large motivating factors that keep those bubbles secure:

1. Being attracted to a dynamic figure or source, one who encourages and enables hate without any stigma. In fact, rewards it.
2. Being convinced by propaganda aimed at demonizing a group.

I'm not sure that dynamic figures play a large part in terrorism. If you look at state-sponsored terrorism, when the state has control of the media, it can successfully dehumanize and then demonize any group that it wants to.

Beginning the (second) invasion of Iraq with "shock and awe" ... which is the very definition of violence against noncombatants for a political goal ... most people in the USA supported it because they were extremely fearful of those fictitious WMDs. Or, if you don't care for that example, many terrorists don't have "a" central figure or leader that they attach to, they're "ideologically possessed", and quite a few are self-radicalized which is how we get the "lone wolf" terrorist.

I really think it's more about dehumanization/ demonization: first, seeing the world entirely in the light of "sides" ("my side, your side") and then viewing everyone who's not on "your side" as an enemy (demonization).

Court Finds Rwanda Media Executives Guilty of Genocide

ARUSHA, Tanzania Dec. 3 — In the first verdict of its kind since the Nuremberg trials, an international court today convicted three Rwandan news media executives of genocide for helping to incite a killing spree by machete-wielding gangs who slaughtered about 800,000 Tutsis in neighboring Rwanda in early 1994.

A three judge panel found that the three defendants used a radio station and a twice-monthly newspaper to inflame ethnic hatred that eventually led to massacres at churches, schools, hospitals and roadblocks. The radio station, dubbed Radio Machete in Rwanda, guided killers to specific victims, broadcasting the names, license plate numbers and hiding places of Tutsis.

Today's verdict was the first conviction of news media executives for crimes of genocide since 1946, when the famous Nuremberg tribunal sentenced the Nazi publisher Julius Streicher to hang for his vitriolic campaign against the Jews. The Arusha judges sentenced two defendants to life in prison and the third to 27 years, reducing it from the life term they said he deserved because his rights were violated early in the case.
Continue reading the main story

"The power of the media to create and destroy human values comes with great responsibility," the court said in a 29-page summary of its judgment. "Those who control the media are accountable for its consequences."

Besides drawing a legal boundary between protected speech and criminal incitement to mass murder, the tribunal's judges and prosecutors said the case vindicated the court's painfully slow and hugely expensive approach to delivering justice in a region where impunity of the powerful has long been the rule.

The legal dividing line of responsibility for inciting violence against a group isn't expressing generic dislike of that group, it's SPECIFIC incitement to violence.

You don't live in the US, or else you'd know that the reichwing commits the lion's share of terrorism here.

It is explicitly encouraged by Trump.

“WE ARE AT A TURNING POINT”: COUNTERTERRORISM EXPERTS SAY TRUMP IS INSPIRING A TERRIFYING NEW ERA OF RIGHT-WING VIOLENCE
https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2018/11/trump-administration-tree-of-l
ife-shooting-domestic-terrorism

“These are all extremist messages that I saw on Stormfront and other white-supremacist message boards 10 or 15 years ago,” says one former Homeland Security analyst. “Now they are being endorsed as policy by the president.”

The Trump administration has done little to counter the impression that it is soft on right-wing extremism. Even before Trump took office, his presidential transition team began drawing up plans to redirect national-security resources away from white supremacists to focus solely on Islamic terrorism. The main target of this effort was Countering Violent Extremism, an interagency task force created by Barack Obama in the wake of the Charleston Church shooting to help prevent acts of violence before they happen. In 2016, the Office of Community Partnerships, which housed C.V.E., boasted a full-time staff of 16, about 25 contractors, and a budget of $21 million. But the Trump White House was skeptical of the preventative approach. While the Anti-Defamation League estimates that white supremacists have committed 83 percent of extremist-related murders in the U.S. over the past decade, the administration wanted to keep the focus on radical Islamist groups. In 2018, the Office of Community Partnerships’ budget was slashed to less than $3 million and its headcount cut to eight. “Effectively, it no longer exists,” a former D.H.S. official told me, describing a “shift” away from “a comprehensive approach” to preventing radicalization and recruitment. “There were a number of new political appointees in the Trump administration who were not fully on board with the approach of the previous administration,” the former official said. “They didn’t want to understand it and some of them just blatantly disagreed with it.” (D.H.S. did not respond to a request for comment.)

Other sources I spoke with specifically identified Katharine Gorka, the wife of former Trump adviser Sebastian Gorka, as a driving figure behind efforts to de-prioritize white supremacist violence. Although Mr. Gorka was forced out of the White House in August 2017, Mrs. Gorka remains a full-time adviser for Kirstjen Nielsen, the secretary of Homeland Security, where she has reportedly played a critical role in shaping the administration’s counterterrorism agenda, including drafting reports to Congress on terrorism recruitment. Like her husband, Mrs. Gorka has been vocal in her criticism of Islam, reportedly raising concerns inside D.H.S. that their influence would mean fewer resources for combatting right-wing extremism. (A spokesperson for D.H.S. previously denied that Katharine Gorka is “pushing the department toward an Islamist-only approach to terrorism,” insisting that she champions “an all-forms-of-extremism approach.”)

Hmm... well, I'd say the USA deep state commits the lion's share of terrorism. Not only does it commit terrorist activities on its own - bombing and droning millions of civilians around the world - it also funds various terrorist groups like the "mujahideen", jihadists in the Middle East, contras and other right wing paramilitary groups in South and Central America etc. So, let's keep our priorities straight and start at the top with the largest number of victims.

But keeping with individual terrorists and terror attacks in the USA ... if I were to say that Muslims commit the most terror attacks in the USA ... should I then claim that Muslims are bad? If you were to claim that "right wing" groups (however you define them) commit the most murders, does that mean that everyone to the right of center is bad? If I were to show you that the Black Bloc advocates and practices terrorism, does that mean that everyone on the far left is a terrorist?

It's kind of like politicians ... I can name you one Republican Congressperson (Rand Paul) who generally takes a principled stand. I can possibly name a few more Democrats that I generally agree with. But that doesn't mean that [all] Democrats are better than [all] Republicans. I react to the individual politician instead of automtically lumping them in with their party. To lump people together is called PREJUDICE ... which literally means to PRE-JUDGE (pre= ahead of time, judice = judgment) people ahead of anything they might have done as individuals.

When someone commits a terrorist act they are, by definition, a terrorist. You might think that terrorism is justified because you agree strongly with their goals, but it doesn't make them any less of a terrorist.

I, personally, have a huge problem with terrorism as a tactic. When a group has to resort to terrorizing a population, it means they don't have strong support within that population and are simply attempting to impose control by violence and fear.

You're not a doctor, Wishy. I know you like to throw around prognoses as if you were, but I'm going to have to see some actual medical research backing up that there are over 200 thousand psychopaths locked up for over 50 years to life because of their mental illness.

I'm sure there are a lot of them, but I'm willing to bet that a moderate amount of that 200 thousand number you're stating were wrongfully accused, and wrongfully convicted. That alone has no bearing on your argument though, and you'd be right to say so. That means that however many got away with it are still out there.

I'd also be willing to bet that a lot of people who did, whatever they did, were people who temporarily snapped in the heat of the moment. That doesn't mean that they're necessarily psychopaths... and they're not who I'm talking about.

I'm talking about the ones like the people referenced in this thread. I'm talking about the Vegas shooter. I'm talking about the Columbine shooters. I'm talking about that kid that shot up a movie theater and killed a bunch of people. I'm talking about people who put a lot of planning into what they do. I'm talking about people who are delusional and believe they're sending a message to the world (like this guy with his nut-ball manifesto... or remember the Unibomber and his wack-job manifesto).

Of course you're never going to get rid of things like this completely. But a good deal of these people know that they're probably going to die going in, and they know that the media is going to cover the fuck out of it after they do whatever they do. Whether it's for the infamy, or getting a message out, for whatever reason they decided this was the only way they were going to make that happen. If our media didn't behave in such a gross sensationalist manner for the money when things like this did occur, and they refused to even show any pictures or mention the names of people who did things like this, then I believe it would drastically reduce the amount of large-scale, premeditated sprees... as well as any copycats.
