I don't think that thousands of people holding the same view in any way provides enough of a statistical sample to satisfy yourself that you're not crazy and it isn't all in your head. Millions of people (if this thread is to be believed) believe that "death to the infidels in the west" is the only path forward for humanity. I don't think that anyone should conclude from that that this idea is not crazy.
