The leader of a conservative think tank claims that most recent political violence in the U.S. has been caused by left-wing extremists, but the data paints a different picture.
So I have very, very long copy-pastas I made from my reddit days detailing that this is pure and utter bullshit. Not just in recent history, but throughout our history. There was a momentary blip where leftist eco terrorism spiked but it was nothing comparable in terms of the homicidal violence of the right at any point in our history.
For every left-wing act of serious violence, I can name 3 or more from the right.
this is only one metric, but i think it’s notable that there are about 80 references on the left wing page and approximately 3.5 times that many on the right wing page.
That’s just the notorious Wikipedia Far-Left bias.
Like, consider the Comet Pingpong Shooting. You counted that as an act of right wing violence. But what about all the cases of adrenochrome harvesting that happened in the basement? Why aren’t Hilary Clinton and John Podesta on this list?
Hell, not a single victim of the Hilary Clinton Death List is anywhere in these articles. Why aren’t we counting the brutal murder of Jeffrey Epstein as an act of Left Wing Violence, eh?
If you want to be a crazy conspiracy person like you are acting at least believe in the conspiracy that epsteins kiddy partners (like trump) were the ones who ordered the hit on him.

there are wikipedia articles about both of these topics:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_terrorism
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-wing_terrorism
and, of course,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_violence

Trump was a white hat pedophile.
