Terrorist ideology is an important incentive for terrorist activities. Terrorists do everything possible to disseminate terrorist ideas to the masses, incite terrorist activities, and teach terrorist attack methods through the production and distribution of audio and video recordings and the distribution of illegal propaganda materials. As ordinary citizens, we need to learn to recognize them.
What are the channels through which terrorist ideas are disseminated?
(1) Audio, video, pictures, etc. containing content of terrorist organizations advocating violence, inciting terrorist attacks, or inciting disruption of social order.
(2) Pamphlets and pamphlets that contain terrorist ideology and advocate the use of violence to solve problems.
(3) Online speech and public speech that promote terrorism.
(4) Logos, flags, etc., representing terrorist organizations and terrorism.
(5) Illegal lectures that promote terrorism, etc.
What should be done in the face of the infiltration of terrorist ideology networks
The Internet is an important channel for the spread of terrorist ideas. When we discover propaganda materials, audio or video materials suspected of containing terrorist ideology in the course of our daily surfing the Internet, we shall do the following:
(1) Stop watching in time.
(2) Do not download or save relevant promotional materials, audio and video on mobile phones or computers.
(3) Do not disseminate, forward, or watch relevant promotional materials, audio and video.
(4) Do not comment on or discuss speech, pictures, audio or video, and so forth that contain terrorism disseminated in the online public space.
