professional-arrogance asked: You are 100% right, but you’re arguing with someone who believes that the Irish peace process is and I quote “A mistake”, so you’re arguing that acts like those are committed by people who are detached from reality, to someone who is clearly detached from reality herself. You’re not going to win, even though you’re completely right.
You’re an idiot, man. Don’t make shit up just because you were arguing with me about something else. Where are you quoting from lmao? What an imbecile, like.
roll on the day when terrorists stop blaming religion for the fact that they are psychotic murderers.
this is such an idiotic post i literally cannot…
… Yeah, you can be mentally ill aswell. My point is that it is dictated by the mental illness - they don’t need to use an excuse, the politics is a genuine motive. Or religion. Same difference in this context because the oppression of his religion by the British state across the world is political. His motivation was political revenge for religious oppression. He didn’t do it because he was mentally ill, he did it to make a point. You’r trying to pan it off on psychosis to delegitimise his point.
I’m not delegitimising his point at all. Not in the slightest. Never did I say, ‘he has no reason to feel the way he does.’ Never did I say there was no ‘political’ backing for his crime.
I said he was a murderer, and murder is carried out by people who are disconnected from the real world; the world in which murdering strangers is fundamentally wrong. He did not carry out his ‘rationally’ asserted point in a rational manner and that makes him, on some level, mentally ill.
I am saying he is a murderer and his religion or politics is not the reason for that. There are a majority of religious and politically-minded people who go about their lives peacefully, because they are mentally stable. It takes a murderer - not a person with a political grievance - to kill someone.
Yeah, I mean.. I’m not even going to keep this going because that bolded bit is just wrong. And you putting your moralistic view on it isn’t going to change that.
No worries, I seen it last year at the Belfast Film Festival. Good show though I’d some gendered criticisms of it overall lak.

well, with your amazing grasp of language I’m sure you can explain what’s wrong with this post?
No problem.
Political violence has absolutely nothing to do with psychological instability, it is dictated by rational thought processes. There are too many studies on that for me to take seriously anybody who claims that political violence is the result of psychosis. They aren’t crazy murderers, and people like you labelling them so is part of the problem. And as long as people continue to do that and not listen to their political grievances than absolutely nothing will change.
hahaha - yes because you can blame politics for a murder? I have political opinions but I don’t go around murdering people - It is a mental condition that causes someone to feel the need to murder someone. Psychosis is a pretty generic term that can be used to describe a lot of mental conditions, and is characterised by a loss of connection with reality. And if somebody thinks that murdering a complete stranger is 1) okay, and 2) a good way to make a political point, then they have lost touch with reality. Mentally stable people do not murder people, regardless of their political affiliations.
also I’ll think you find I said ‘religion’ I did not say ‘politics’. My point is that no modern religion advocates murder.
I mean, no. You’re just making assumptions. Literally all you need to do is take like twenty minutes on google scholar and you’ll see that studies around political violence overwhelmingly find that it’s completely rational and has nothing to do with any form of mental illness or disorder. That’s practically unianimously recognised in criminological circles. Look into it.
And you said religion but, if you watched his interview he quite clearly made the point that it was political. I don’t think he thought it was okay, he thought he was making a point. That was clear by what he said. That shows absolutely no detachment from reality; using the media to make a point in an extreme or dramatic fashion will highlight an issue if you get it. Which he did. That’s totally rational.
YOU don’t do those things, but other people do. Political violence is super common, just because you don’t take the time to research it and understand it… The IRA, ETA, the PKK, German revolutionary cells..? No?

Anti-imperialism, basically. He was saying in the interview essentially that it was an eye for eye type attack, he said that people in his land faced attacks and murders like that every day and that it showed the difference between people in other countries dying at the hands of British soldiers, like today’s victim, and how people react to those people dying instead.
