association-of-free-people: wordsmithapprentice: The guy was definitely a mass murderer, but in the absence of political, religious, or ideological motive, that was not terrorism.Not to say that they would not have called it terrorism if he had even attended one night class about Islam, for they certainly would have, just to say that it’s an incorrect usage of the word to apply it here. Show me a hint of ideological motive, however, and I will be happy to call him a terrorist. Just like Justin Bourque. He’s white, he had ideological motives, and I will call him a terrorist, even if the local media shied away from doing so.However, in the absence of a manifesto, or some other evidence of thoughts beyond his own desire to die, I must insist that Andreas Lubitz was no terrorist. Please, stop using reason. It is not welcome here. There are only two valid thought processes in this matter; 1. White man racism and 2. POC oppression. Here’s a list of “pilot suicides/murders” on commercial airliners. You’ll find that it is a multi-ethnic and multi-racial list. But of course this doesn’t fit the narrative that gets one hundred thousand notes in tumblr’s false reality echo chamber. I anticipate this will be reblogged a handful of times and ignored by the delusional mass of people mired in their hatred of reality. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/03/27/world/europe/few-precedents-are-seen-as-germanwings-investigation-points-to-deliberate-crash.html?_r=0&referrer= -- source link
