to your last paragraph, please know that I appreciate you asking a good question!

this compulsive blabberer would argue, yes, a lot of things are needed to consolidate attack and writing doesn't hold a candle to the social conditions that produce intelligent people with a great deal of anger and nothing much else to lose. then again, finding the writing is how they develop their analysis, increasing their effectiveness.

I've never cared for models that veer too close to their counterparts in other ideologies, commonly referred to as "stochastic terrorism" in counterinsurgency land. of course, I despise this model too but they can recognize a death cult as a political weapon, same as me. the old trick where you pour poison in the ears of angry kids and toss them in the meat grinder is as does.
