    Of course, birdgirl's chart is cherry picked, and he doesn't know how charts work......

    Axios is left-leaning, of course. This article says leftwing terrorism outpaces far-right attacks.

    6 days agoAxios demonstrates a slight left-leaning bias. This is reflected in its story selection, which often emphasizes topics such as climate change, social justice, and critiques of conservative policies.

    It's mildly left of center and that's enough for you to stick your head in the sand cuz you don't like that data? But then you do like the data, at least part of it

    God you're just a politically blinded hack

    yes, I said it leaned left. I posted a link on the subject.

    You? Just a very ignorant, girliebird smart aleck.

  • Is this the result of anti academic Idiocracy? Or do they know what they're doing and just assume you all are morons?

    At this point I'm just convinced you two can't even read the chart. You have no idea what the data says. You just regurgitate headlines you see on you Facebook groups full of pathetic morons yelling at the world around them.

    Jackson posts a chart that reflects how left wing terrorism rose to a 30 year high in 2025, outpacing the right.

    She blames democrats, most likely politicians for planting the Nazi narrative in the minds of their lunatic followers.

    So what are you crying about?

    You’re kinda the guy on the soap box around here stumping about leftwing violence. It’s nice to see something resembling statistics on the matter. I have questions on how these numbers came to be too.

    Regardless, those statistics prove your point to a degree. At least in recent times. But the last 30 years? 

    I figured you’d be most interested.

    I can read the chart just fine... In fact My teachers were actually impressed with my ability to read and decipher charts and graphs at a young age.. I just question anything that comes from Axios...

    Yes I was very interested to know what criteria they used to determine right/left violence, and more so the actual acts that were committed. What they included and what they didn’t. Unfortunately the link to the actual study provided no such information.

    I wonder if they counted such incidents as liberals blocking traffic leading to Trump rallies or the disruptions they caused at those rallies.
    How about that liberal idiot that charged the stage when Trump was speaking. I wonder if they counted that. 

    I don’t remember those things happening when Obama or Biden ran.

    How many times must we read about someone wearing a MAGA hat get assaulted. I wonder if they counted those.

    Do you understand this graph?

    What is being overlooked with “whataboutism” is that violence is fostered only by one side….democrat politicians and those in the public eye spewing hate and encouraging confrontation... many of whose comments were deleted or apologized for afterwards. Too late assholes.

    • Vice Mayor Gonzalez’s Cudahy in southeast Los Angeles County called for criminal gangs – including the vicious 18th street gang—to commit violence against our brave ICE law enforcement.

    Thank you for this. I needed a good laugh 

  • "disrupting traffic" as a data point for left wing violence??? Hahaha you poor snowflake. Talk about moving the goalpost. 

    And what MAGA politicians and talking heads are saying, what violent rhetoric they've used, what violence they've joked about or downplayed, it's all very clear and out there. But that gets us into trying to get you to understand reality, and I know you MAGA dipshits hate acknowledging reality.

    I do understand the graph. I understood the one Woody posted as well. If we are assuming both are in the realm of plausible, we might have 30 years of left wing violence ahead of us just to balance the scales. That’s going to really suck. But that’s sort of how these things go.

    One thing l believe is every movement creates a counter movement, and history has shown this throughout the years. EG: Every Civil Rights movement we’ve ever had saw an uptick in activity from the KKK or some other opposing group. 

    If “right wing domestic terrorism” is going to dominate “left wing domestic terrorism” for 30 years, then it will in effect create a void for more left wing terrorism to come. Like l said, it’s going to suck.

  • I'm trying to remember some of the right wing terrorism over the past 30 yrs, please help.

    I'm not saying there aren't examples, I am curious as to what you guys actually recall.

    I'd also like to see how it compares to the last 16 years that the democrats have been inciting division in this country to a point where we get assassination attempts on Trump and one killing Kirk. A terrorist organization antifa formed out of the left and it's easy to say this is directly contributed to the way democrats spew rhetoric. I wonder if the right wing violence can be so easily linked to conservatives.

    You forgot this lefty below that tried assassinating as many Republican congressmen as he could during family baseball game of all places.

    But to help answering your question, in 2018 Dylan Roof shot up a black church, killing 9.
    A white supremacy dickhead,  thus will forever be designated unfairly as “right wing violence.”

    There is a stark difference though. Unlike what’s taking place on the left, the decision for his actions were not given a boost by right wing politics or politicians and their rhetoric.

  • The assassination of a Minnesota Dem politician and her husband, and the attempted assassination of another political couple, with a larger hit list of Dems was less than 4 months ago and it's already completely removed from your minds. 

    If you can't even remember that, why bother engaging you in other instances? Where you'll either not think it happened or think it doesn't actually count as right wing. 

    You're the same people now shouting that every shooting is done by a trans person, regardless of facts. Some of you still posting that past shootings were done by trans folks when we objectively know that isn't true. 

    While you simultaneously want to claim "disrupting traffic" should be considered left wing violence (an insane and incredibly biased take). 

    Why engage if you don't even exist in the same realty?

  • Timothy McVeigh comes to mind for me. Blowing up a federal building with a day care in it is nasty stuff. 

  • Sep 25, 2025Conversely, "left-wing violence has risen in the last 10 years" particularly since "Trump's rise to political prominence," the study says, and has generally targeted government and law enforcement.

    So you really don't read anything you post, huh? Just, the headline...

    Or maybe you can't read the charts in that article either
