> The extremist-related murders in 2018 were overwhelmingly linked to right-wing extremists. Every one of the perpetrators had ties to at least one right-wing extremist movement, although one had recently switched to supporting Islamist extremism. White supremacists were responsible for the great majority of the killings, which is typically the case.

Let’s look at that number again. Americans killed by politically motivated left wing extremists was ZERO. In the same year the right lost their shit over Antifa and violent “leftist” mobs. And I STILL hear people saying it right is peaceful and it’s the left that is violent.

Please, tell me more about how “both sides are the same.”
