> Or simply interact with reality. I have and I've noticed that by far the easiest and most obvious demographic correlation with terrorism is men. In my interactions with reality I've noticed that there's an inordinate/biased fear of Islam over and above a fear of men, in demographic terms, particularly among the men who tend to proclaim Islam is some immanent threat to Europe. Maybe there's a useful word we can use, in reality, to describe an inordinate fear of Islam?
