Oh ok! Can name a couple off the top of my head

Anders Breivik's anti-communist boogaloo (77 dead, neo-nazism as a motive)

Suzano School Shooting (7 dead, hatred for the brazilian government as a motive)

Christchurch Mosque Shooting (53 dead, neo-nazism as a motive, notable for kick-starting the livestreaming a mass shooting idea, targeted muslims)

Tops Supermarket Shooting (10 dead, neo-nazism as a motive, targeted blacks)

Baerum Mosque Shooting (1 dead, neo-nazism as a motive, failed miserably)

Oklahoma City Bombing (168 dead, hatred of the U.S government as a motive, deadliest act of domestic terrorism in history until 9/11)

Ted Kaczynski - Anti-Technology+Radicalism & Eco-Fascism

Ted Kaczynski was an anti-technology primitivist who engaged in a terrorist campaign that killed three people and injured a dozen more, almost all of whom were service workers, academics and tech industry workers (plus a couple of cops and bomb disposal workers) - nobody remotely likely to influence policy or social change. He came within a hair's breadth of blowing up a civilian airliner and killing dozens ffs.

Trotsky's 'Against Individual Terrorism' sets out very clearly why Marxists oppose the tactics of individual acts of violence - They substitute mass social change for individual voluntarism and they ultimately buttress the state that they purport to oppose. His manifesto expressed collective human activity, which is not only directly hostile to socialist organising, It's also an ahistorical 'state of nature' fallacy, which has never ever existed and would result in human extinction. More generally, the Industrial Revolution is objectively a good thing that, despite It's fiasco, developed productive forces to the point where socialist superabundance is possible.

I've been reading Industrial Society And It's Future and I'm pretty convinced the guy's onto something. Besides, he won. A lot of people have read and agreed with his work, which was the end goal of the bombing campaign. Also, he blew up the guy who helped Exxon repair their image after the '89 Exxon-Valdez incident, and I see that as a W.

Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev boogaloo’d the Boston Marathon, as Dzhokhar put it, “protecting Islam from the US”.

Pekka Eric Auvinen described his shooting as an act of political terrorism and not just a school shooting.

I guess the terrorist bombings count, my favorites without a doubt are the female suicide bombers From the SSNP, like Norma Abu Hassam, Ibtissam Harb, Saná Mehaidli, Lola Abud and more

Unabomber was never an eco-fascist. in fact he was a terrorist of a baseless cause. it's funny that Pentti Linkola was much more useful being a pacifist protector of nature than the Unabomber in all aspects.

The Unabomber's manifesto was far too complicated to make sense of. Pekka's was short enough to be understood by the few that are capable of seeing the truth.

Certainly. the truth is direct, blunt. unabomber is so useless that not even saving a tree did it. shitty environmentalist. people like to blame everything but themselves for the things they do.

I have to admire The Unabomber's supreme intelligence and the fact he did everything with no electricity or running water and got away with it for so long.

Pentti Linkola lived the same way, and set up an institution that today protects several forest areas in Finland, buying them. he also crossed all of finland and sweden by bicycle. Unabomber was useless in terms of environmental preservation.

You could say that the fact he was against air travel made him an environmentalist. It was only a faulty wire that stopped the bomb from detonating and bringing down the plane.

I think Linkola is much smarter than Unabomber and I'll explain why:
1- Linkola was the first to have the courage to blame HUMANITY AND OVERPOPULATION as the cause of environmental destruction.
2- Linkola lived simply and ecologically, as an Ornithologist and Fisherman, not using electricity for most of his life.
3- Linkola lived like a true ecologist, he didn't use cars, but carts, he didn't travel by plane, and he always used a wooden boat to fish.
4- Linkola formulated the bases for a truly ecological government.
5- Linkola was a pacifist, who set up an institution that buys forest land for preservation, a totally intelligent form of preservation.
Even Linkola was vital to Pekka's intellectualism.

Ramzi Yousef - The World Trade Center & Airlines Flight 434 bomber. Co-conspirator in the Bojinka plot.

Ulster Loyalist Michael Stone - Milltown Cemetery Attack & Assassination Plot of Martin McGuinness + Gerry Adams.

The Omagh Bombing - Real IRA

1999 Russian apartment bombings. They are a bunch of bombings around Russia. Very political as it was one of the triggers for the second Chechan war. This gave rise to lots of theories of it being an inside job by Putin to gain popularity as he was pro-war. The theories are pretty valid too.

What is the ideology of the IRA?? I've heard them described as Communists, Republicans, Fascists, and here I am, equally confused by it all.

Marxist-Leninist shitheads who want a “32 county socialist republic”, and being Irish myself, that sounds terrifying.
