Social and political tolerance of extremism, particularly right-wing and white extremism, is collapsing in ways that cld matter for years. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

We're now starting to see the implications of these changes in who counts as a terrorist and what political ideologies can be called terror. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Been discussion for years that institutionalized racism is terrorism, but it broke thru with Roof, coopted post-9/11 politics of terrorism. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Third: Dylann Roof, a watershed in we think about terror. Marginalized communities mainstreamed idea that their persecution is terrorism. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

The political implications of this becoming a consensus position are really hard to overstate. Backlash against RW extremism is entrenching. — PolitiTweet.org

This might be the week that anti-Muslim terrorism became widely acknowledged as terrorism, a major change in how we view terror & tolerance. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

I know many on the left will say this was always known. True always problems, but arc bended in right direction. No longer clear it does. — PolitiTweet.org

Ideological links bw right-wing populism and anti-Muslim violence force us to question whether Western societies are tolerant as we thought. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Second was the rise of anti-Muslim violence, partly an extension of the right-wing populism remaking the world & still barely understood. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

Within that line were a lot of really difficult and scary implications for whether terrorism had as much meaning as groups & pols insisted. — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

First was the rise of ISIS, which forced us to confront the super-blurry line bw a disturbed loner vs a strategic group that might claim him — PolitiTweet.org

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

I don't we appreciate how much our definition of "terrorism" has evolved in the last three years, due to three events. — PolitiTweet.org

1/ Hi. I rarely write on terrorism these days. When I do, NYT overlords kindly let me say what I think needs saying. https://t.co/xNHJAwfZhK — PolitiTweet.org

@Joshua_Pollack I mean, they shelled Yeonpyeong and sank the Cheonan. Clearly not above violence. — PolitiTweet.org

@ilangoldenberg i understand some folks made that recommendation but a common refrain was limited strikes to bring about regime collapse — PolitiTweet.org

Now those recommendations have become reality. The promised gains are strangely illusive, as are the folks who promised them. — PolitiTweet.org
