It's really a stupid anachronism to be comparing the repressive policies against anarchists more than 100 years ago, and the policies against Islamic terrorism. The "larger context" is not the same, even if it DOES involve disposed migrants. There's "denial" of the larger context, but there's also its streamlining down to a unidimensional comic-book explaining away of the spread of the Takfiri groups, who're even bigger at fascism than your usual Western Alt Right and Neonazis and have been taking money and weapons out of imperialist regimes.

This comes in as specifically relevant in the context of the current Turkish invasion of Rojava.
