Hi @kathleen_belew
Really great podcast w @SamHarrisOrg! I learned a lot. I appreciate the way you clearly explain how the danger of white nationalism is so much more than only body count. I feel the same way about Islamic extremism-the body count is just the tip of the iceberg.

This may be generally true of nearly any dogmatic ideology. Because they root themselves in dogma and superstition (or appeal to a authority) rather than science, they can only guide society away from truth and justice, except perhaps by occasional accident.
Right. But govts/ law enforcement are too fixated on body count to see the bigger picture. Islamic extremism gets a lot of attn because of high body count, while white nationalism gets less because of lower body count-but that’s inaccurate. It ignores the insidious dangers.
