Has anyone heard about the FBI and the DHS partnering up to combat extremist gamers?

I did a quick search so let me know if I missed any info.

And this is what they declare makes you an extremist/terrorist.

Looking a bit more it looks like the U.S. Government Accountability Office has made a list of actions the FBI and DHS do that involves strategies and goals for sharing threat information with social media and gaming companies.

Should normal people need to worry that they get accidentally put on the FBI & DHS lists?

If you’re not a violent extremist than you probably don’t need to be worried about getting put on the violent extremist lists.

Yes I agree as well. I guess this is more of a paranoia idea. In the other category it says “Such agendas combine personal grievances and beliefs with political concerns and aspects of conspiracy theories, as well as bias related to religion, gender, or sexual orientation.”

Correct me if I’m wrong but if someone gaming says that they believe a certain religion is trash, they would be put on their lists? And if that’s the case who decides what is allowed? And what is a terrorist remark? Is there a fine line or is it an arbitrary line?
