How terrorism works; Essay, Political theory and Psychology

in politics •  7 years ago 

There is a lot of propaganda going on to distract people from the truth, as well as the so-called political correctness bullshit.
First, I will explain what political correctness is: Resistance to any actions that limit the power of the state... or could bring troubles to the state... This is the most reasonable explanation for "political correctness".
why I relate political correctness to terrorism. First, because terrorism is deeply political and it is guided by political and state agents and funded mostly by NGOs.
The first thing you need to realize to understand terrorism is that the WORLD is anarchic interconnected interactive system of institutions which give influence to one another.
The specific definition of institution taken from the literature, in this case, is: Grop of people who share the same rules and have many commonalities. So, the ministry is an institution, the police department is an institution, the society is an institution, the UN is an institution and so on and so on.
Why is the anarchical system interconnected and interactive and also it is emitting forms of influence with its actions?
You can answer it yourself, although the answer might be very complicated, I will keep it basic.
Anarchic means there are no laws. In the foreign policy, there are no laws just rules voted and accepted by the international community and every state agrees to follow because it makes the world a better place for everyone and everyone has an interest of accepting these rules. The system is interactive and interconnected because every move of a particular state is changing the current condition of the foreign environment where the other states are located, and this is called a form of influence. There are countless forms of influence, just use your imagination. Basically, this is the fundamental ground you need to know. How the state reacts to these specific forms of influence is a psychological issue, because the state is guided by people who make the decisions. Guiding a state is a bit like playing chess, but not by a single person on each side. The common task every state is following is to avoid global war and significant changes in the security environment. That's why making a decision you must think how it will affect other states because they will react to your influence and this is actually very complicated. For this reason the diplomatic service exists and it mostly negotiation and reaching a common ground. This is the main objective of diplomatic service. This my friends is the basic political theory by your MA host - me. I will expand it in the future when I reach more followers.
Now after this common ground we can get to the basics of terrorism.
First, huge percentage of terrorism itself is not done by an organized group. It is done by regular people who just have the proper psychological state, or in other words the proper psychological infrastructure.
How is the psychological infrastructure built - the basics?
It is built by information, and this information is a form of psychological influence.
When an individual is born he is quite empty, mostly he holds genetical information, the rest to come is information from the outer world, or the specific area where the individual is placed to grow. It doesn't matter if an individual is born or not the information in the environment where he might be placed is in existence - it is called constant environment. This information ( influence, it is called influence because it reflects on the individual somehow) is fitting into the brain and it is slowly building his personality until the end of "Maslow's Pyramid" and also it is building his consciousness.
Information is everything perceived by the sensory perceptions. Therefore, every experience is information, everything that you touch see is information, everything perceivable is information which is building our consciousness.
Immagine how would you know that you are seeing a table with a bottle on it if you haven't accepted this informational influence before and you don't have the needed information already for your perception to function. It is that simple.
Therefore, if you are born within the Islamic state there is no other way but you being a terrorist and having the specific psychological infrastructure.
I will now list some of the fundamental forms of informational influence existing in the constant environment where the individual is developing his self:
Historical memory, including books, temples, monuments, movies etc
Collective memory - the shared pool of knowledge and information in the memories of two or more members of a social group.
Government
Schools
Organisations
Religious institutions
etc.
All of these are institutionalized factors emitting informational influence which is building your psychological infrastructure.
In this case, all of those factors within the Islamic state are guided to form the specific psychological infrastructure.
However, some states like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Jordan and more are trying to establish such institutions outside of their own states within foreign enviroinment so they will be able to manage social groups and use them as a weapon. This is a form of proxy warfare. For this case they use NGOs and monetary funds and organisations with hidden agenda, also some of their diplomatic structures and many more...
This my friends is the basis of terrorism. Hope you understood everything above. I must stop now because my girlfriend is getting pissed off already. I can provide some literature to clarify this essay if it is demanded in the comments.
Hope you have a great day/night y'all. /
