‘Distressingly unhelpful’: Wil Wheaton’s attempt at political snark falls flat

Would love to read a good essay about the wave of far-left terrorism that wracked Europe in the 1970s and why it dissipated.

I would read a good book on this. https://t.co/zjYsc3QiZ7

@chrislhayes Oh, it’s because of something something Saint Ronald Reagan, of course!

@SonnyBunch Is he ever helpful in any discussion that doesn't have something to do with sci-fi movies or tv?

@SonnyBunch Speaking as an "unserious political tweeter" Wil's problem is that he doesn't seem to have a setting beyond "unserious & angry".

@SonnyBunch Hilariously out of his depth

@Peetweefish @SonnyBunch Reminds me of his best scene in TNG. https://t.co/yoil0mznDN

Leave aside Wesley Crusher's unhelpful nature: anyone know of a good book about left wing domestic terrorism in Europe in the 1970s?
