What? You mean the terrorist who was arrested for trying to blow up a house of parliament? What's problematic about that?

Do you know why he wanted to do it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

He was a papist (i.e. a Catholic theocrat) who was fighting against the Protestant theocracy in England. He wanted to replace a Protestant theocracy with a Catholic theocracy.

That's about all I know. I'm not an expert or anything.
