Left wing violence does happen, about 1/5th as much as right violence, and the left usually targets buildings, think of the poor poor buildings!

I will take “overly idealistic” over “cruel” any day. we can always walk back excess and tighten our belts if it’s too expensive. you can’t un-harm people

for the ppl that seem to be confused on the difference between the two: leftwing extremism: using radical (sometimes violent) means to dismantle oppressive systems in pursuit of absolute economic and social equality. rightwing extremism: using radical (sometimes but often violent) means to preserve or impose social hierarchies through rejection of absolute economic and social equality.

The fact that being pro-human fights is now considered extreme left wing politics makes me sad

Look we need to drop the whole left vs. right thing it’s unproductive and needs to stop. Guys we have been arguing over the same pointless crap since 2015, 2015!!!! Nothing is changing why because this “culture war” is designed to keep is distracted from actual issues and keep us enslaved to the rich and powerful.

Access to basic needs is NOT left wing extremism, left wing extremism is defending rioting because you’re angry government yet these people are destroying small businesses.

so Imm curious where your pulling this information from because it’s sounding a bit rich given the blm situation. Take accountability for your own party and stop pointing fingers.

I would totally take you seriously if it wasn’t for your completely braindead replies to other people’s comments

And see I would take your critique seriously if it went beyond simply insulting me, and actually said something of substance.

Left wing extremism is a lot more than just saying everyone deserves equal rights and access to basic needs

The blm situation where a lot of buildings were significantly damaged? There’s several studies from several sources across all biases including the NIJ that all show the data plain as day, politically motivated violence is disproportionately perpetrated by the right and while left wing political violence a majority of time targets property right wing violence mostly targets human beings

The only reason left wing violence is “the highest it’s ever been since the 80s” or whatever FOX told you, is because instead of 3-4 incidences there were 5 in 2025

Wanting basic needs for everyone is a general principle from the left wing, extremism is taking things to the extreme like rioting, communism, etc.

You’re calling me stupid because I don’t agree with your opinion but why post something like that on US Politics if you don’t want to debate? I said nothing disrespectful to you, I was informing you that wanting basic needs for everyone isn’t extremism, it’s a general principle. Have a good day.

That’s the thing about extremists, they’re always wrong. Neo nazis have a disgusting mindset, wanting “ethnic cleansing” is a disgusting mindset, communists are wanting to take “equality” to the extreme that turns into an oppressive government

as a right wing fascist we aren’t violent. You’re just told to think we are by the mainstream to keep you afraid.
