I liked this comment on Reddit which I think is relevant in a discussion about combatting this form of terrorism:<p><i>&quot;The problem is that we have forgotten the power of ideology and the way that you cultivate civilized discourse and expectations. In the Western world, we&#x27;ve spent the last 40 years shitting all over the best weapons we have to address ideology: philosophy, literature, poetry, art, music and religious discourse. We&#x27;ve marginalized the way to talk about the abstract elements of human experience, and now we find that we have nothing to say.&quot;</i>
