Yes, you're perpetuating systemic oppression, murder and sexual abuse.

Let me put it very plainly. Let's say someone is bullied for a year and every week for a year the target of bullying gets beaten up. And then after a year they decide to throw a punch at the bully. Which of the two reactions sounds less evil? "obviously the bully had it coming they've been beating the shit out of the other person." or "I can't believe what a violent piece of shit the other person is for punching the bully."?

In case it's not clear, you're the latter calling people terrorists for being violent against the violent oppression that they've been subjected to for decades.
