They have also stated in multiple cases that their purpose is to silent right-wing speakers through violence and threats of such, which undeniably amounts to terrorism. And I lived in Berkeley when that was happening there.
What does extremism including terrorism have to do with anything? That only makes sense if it's the other way around.
Like the way antifa practices it?
Really? This is about as intellectually honest as saying the Earth is flat.
I wish I didn't have to explain this. You were talking about a comparison between the numbers of left and right extremists. Comparing the sizes of a subset of each doesn't do that. Even if you leave out Antifa and say there's more right-wing terrorism, there's way more left-wing extremism in other forms, enough to easily give them the greater number.
Don’t you go hitting them with facts. If violence is in a liberal’s favor, it’s not violence, it’s called protesting.
It's going to be interesting to see the reactions to the violent protests in France. Already NBC has given it the headline "violence, destruction," etc, while they always called the very similar riots here something else. Because the violence there is the right, or more precisely those against the French socialism.Don’t you go hitting them with facts. If violence is in a liberal’s favor, it’s not violence, it’s called protesting.
Violence is violence no matter how you want to spin it.Don’t you go hitting them with facts. If violence is in a liberal’s favor, it’s not violence, it’s called protesting.
I never refuted that, but it's also not what you originally said. I'm pretty sure there have been more *deaths* caused by right-wing extremists. Antifa, for one, is smart enough not to kill anyone so they don't get shot themselves.
Agreed. Imagine how the media would react if white conservatives were walking into restaurants and harassing prominent liberals? They would be calling these people members of hate groups, etc, but there was no outrage because the left is completely blinded by a sickening level of vitriol towards Trump and Conservatism. I’m no Trump fan but the fact he’s been so disruptive to Washington means he’s done something right. After all, decades of being sold out to the Republican and Democratic establishments has given us the America we have today. And we only got Trump because we had a disastrous 8 years of Obama. America loves radical political shifts.
