This past Tuesday was Election Day in the United States, so in keeping with the vaguely political climate around here, it's time for a State of the Union episode, if the union here is the global village of experts in countering violent extremism.We haven’t had such an episode in quite some time, because I've been rather frustrated with that community's fixation on incels, and I couldn't think of an "incel expert" to have on the show. Instead, today we talk about what terrorism actually is, and what it actually isn’t, with Liam Duffy (@LiamSD12). Liam is an advisor to the Counter Extremism Project, a friend, and a great writer, and graciously agreed to come on and talk a little shop and dispel some stubborn myths about how this all works…Read Liam's work for UnHerd at https://unherd.com/author/liam-duffy/Outro: Nobody Speak by DJ Shadow feat.
