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

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

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

Max Fisher @Max_Fisher

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

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
