If you indirectly contribute to terrorizing people based on race because you provide aid and comfort to a racist, are you a terrorist?

- DyslexicAtheist 5y agoI think in that case the person is a racist. I find the label and term terrorism extremely troubling as it always can be spun as "what is a terrorist in one group might be the freedom fighter to the other" the label terrorism is usually only successful in the most homogenos and brainwashed cultures, where all complexity and nuance is stripped away. it's great for propaganda or when you need to criminalize a whole society of people.
