Flipboard Pinterest Linkedin THOUGHT EXPERIMENT Female extremists in QAnon and ISIS are on the rise. We need a new strategy to combat them. We refuse to treat women terrorists with the same seriousness and concern as men. The skepticism increases their danger. Image: QAnon supporters wait for the military fly QAnon supporters wait for the military flyover at the World War II Memorial during Fourth of July celebrations in Washington.Evelyn Hockstein / For The Washington Post via Getty Images file Dec. 11, 2020, 3:30 AM CST By Farah Pandith, adjunct senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, Jacob Ware, research associate for counterterrorism at the Council on Foreign Relations, and Mia Bloom, international security fellow at New America When President-elect Joe Biden takes office in January, he will face a shifting extremism landscape. Among the evolutions is the growing role of women in extremist groups, and the new commander-in-chief would be wise to take a fresh approach to this threat. Downplaying the phenomenon or misrepresenting what drives it, as so many previous administrations have done, will only make it worse.
With women constituting the majority of QAnon followers, we should not be surprised that more women are involved in plots of violence.
Take QAnon, which will be chief among the Biden national security team's concerns.

As for female participation, shall we talk about all the women that went nuts for BLM and antifa a few months ago?Thank you.

They know Q is real. That's why they're coming at it so hard.
If they know it, why don't you? I think John meant there's Q and there are anons. There's no Qanon.

This article proves the writer doesn’t know how to do bonafide research and should go back to gossip rags.

"Radicalized American women tend to commit the same types of crimes and have about the same success rate as radicalized men, yet they are less likely to be arrested and convicted for terrorism-related crimes, highlighting a discrepancy in treatment and leaving a security threat unaddressed." I see no problem with getting tough on female extremists, regardless of the political spectrum they're coming from.

A female QAnon extremist?
Gee, it's getting to the point where you can't walk down the streets of fly over America without stumbling over the heads of decapitated QAnon victims hearing the sounds of screams and electric drills emanating from suburban two car garages.
You go girls/S

I thought QANON was a LARP. ISIS isn’t a LARP unless raping infidels and lopping heads off of teachers in France is regarded as a LARP.

From the article:
"

"
1. Donations to black lives matter are electronically footted to ACTBLUE which collects funds for the DNC.
2. One of the two women accused of attempting to derail trains as cited in the article was the former deputy field organizer for the Washington State Democrat party.
12/9/2020
According to the DOJ, efforts like theirs are not rare, ""Since January there have been 41 incidents of shunts placed on the BNSF tracks in Whatcom and Skagit counties..."
Ellen Brennan Reiche....was the deputy field organizer for Washington State Democrats, according to their now-deleted LinkedIn profile.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Given the DNC's documented links to organizations like BLM,which stage riots/burn down cities/run down pedestrians with their cars, government officials (e.g., Cynthia McKinney) who openly order their "soldiers" to "take care of" the opposition, and other "supporters' out there trying to derail trains, maybe "journalists" should investigate the command/control hierarchy of the DNC that is fomenting this kind of radicalization and dangerous attacks on the US.
Oh the examples I've given are women, but I want the law to ignore gender and simply stop thug terrorists regardless of the demographics or optics.

You’ve gotta be kidding!
Those dangerous female Qanon followers?
Really?
They always accuse our side of their side’s crimes.
Larry Nichols used to say that Hillary referred to it as a consciously chosen strategy of “projection”.

Bingo. Going to be an interesting weekend, and through New Year.
