Centrist here. I don’t think the point of horseshoe theory is that the far-left and far-right are the same. The point is simply that they have similarities. Like both wanting to use violence to achieve their aims.
Further note that of the vaguely possible candidates, the far left just isn’t in play in the US. The far right is somewhat represented in the Republican side.
That’s the difference currently, that both the far right and far left are dangerous in theory, but currently only the far right is a threat in practice today in the US
Well, if we’re talking about actual physical violence against people, I don’t think advocating for that is a great idea. Especially since, if you try to use violence against people you don’t like, they will probably try to use violence against you.
