The Terrorists of 4chan

120. That is a misreading of my post, coupled with an unjust attribution.

First, the attribution: I never found ISIL to be a laughing matter. If other DUers have done so, feel free to take it up with them, and don't use the behavior of others to try and invalidate my argument.

And the idea that all criminals of a certain type are precisely equivalent is absolute rubbish. We wouldn't say that someone who stole a dollar is the same as a bank robber who steals a million dollars. Nor would we say that a violent thief is the same as a non- violent thief. In fact, the law and our culture clearly do delineate between types and severity of theft (and most other categories of crime).

This is also true of terrorism.

Oh, and I did not say that all 4chan users were terrorists. Only that there are terrorist using 4chan for their purposes.
