    "Saving humanity from the sins of the west and their ideological indoctrination is also not political. "

    • Osama Bin Laden (probably)

    Just call it what it is then say it’s justified if you think it is. If you can dress this up as not terrorism then nothing is.

      One is literally happening outside as we speak, one is based upon an extremist interpretation of a 2000 year old book. Can you spot the difference?

        The existence of God is unfalsifiable, so you can’t say it’s untrue to the believer. Just make the rules and play by them. Also it’s more like 1500 years ago 🤓.

          The idea of climate change and it’s causes IS falsifiable though, which is why taking actions related to that cause is a bit different than something that has no way to be proven.

            In which scenario do you think that you’re gonna live for longer and/or with a higher quality of life.

            • Mass blowing up and destruction of fossil fuel infrastructure
            • The status quo

            Think about the implications of each scenario and let me know.
