So we are allowed to stab people if there’s no cameras?

I notice they didn’t charge him with terrorism and the death penalty.

Cultism is such a potent tendency of the human animal that new cults form spontaneously in the absence of established mythologies (or despite them). Fascism is a cult phenomenon, for instance, and the people vulnerable to such belief systems are unerringly broken in the same way that religious people are broken. It’s like someone scooped out the part of their brains responsible for maintaining epistemic norms and replaced it with oatmeal.

The claim was that by your reasoning, situations that are not terrorism would be classified as terrorism.

Analogy. I’m simply applying your reasoning to designate random murders as terrorism.

“It’s clear that the mass murderer didn’t have personal beef with the women he killed. It’s ideological because he hates society.”

So I guess everything is terrorism.

If every ideological thought is also political, then so are most murders.

If everything is political, then nothing is political.

Being in a cult isn’t evil?

Religion is a monstrous evil.

Anarchy is the rejection of unjust hierarchies, not all hierarchies. Certainly a parent would have authority over a small child insofar as that’s reasonably justified. Similarly, some expert may be elected to a position where they’re democratically authorized to make specific decisions so we don’t have to vote a thousand times a day about specialized matters.

On the whole, anarchism just means a lot more democracy.

I can’t imagine how hard it must be to manage a company as big and complex as YouTube.

To be fair, not at all. Someone in her position would be making broad decisions, such as “should we have a downvote button,” and spending her time courting advertisers and handling the whiny board of directors, who are mostly geriatric babies.
