Terrorism Writ Small

Coldly calculated deliberately intended and extended terror-inducing violence, physical and/or verbal, is motivated by chronic anger and fear, but also sometimes, on a larger scale, by beliefs that vengeance can be, or at least eventually become, ecopolitically justified means toward an egocentrically therapeutic outcome.

Any parent who has been excruciatingly appraised by teenagers, each of whom believes it is his or her, or whatever in-between, duty to update your more cooperative tolerance skills, hopefully will have learned that both belief in vengeful nastiness and its nihilistic disvaluing win/lose 0-sum degenerative corollary are errors in ecopolitically healthy and correct win/win co-impassioned judgment, peace-making inside and outside, not inside v outside.
