The group defining "left wing violence" vs "right wing violence" labels almost everything right wing.
As an example, Islamic Terror is considered "right wing"
That's because it is.
Idiot.
Yes but no
They're culturally right
It's *a* "right wing"
It *is* right wing.
but it's not *the* right wing in terms of politics
in the USA
But it is...
They're culturally HARD right.
Just as Antfia is culturally hard left.
And the KKK are culturally right..
Yes they are, but the label is being used to inflate the death count in order to smear ALL right ideologies
It's not 'inflating' anything?
It's the truth
Just how you can say "The left killed millions under Mao"
I went through all the ADL's political violence in the US list.
One of the white supremacy ones was a KKK member's wife, shooting and killing her KKK member husband.
Another of the white supremacy one was 3 white supremacist males living together, one converts to Islam and kills the other 2.
Right so you tell that fiercely-NAP-adherent ANCAP that his right-wing ideology killed people when some islamofascist aloha snackbars a shopping center.
As the old saying goes, there are three kinds of falsehoods.
Lies
Damn Lies
And Statistics
And the statistics hold true..
The statistics only hold true because they're defined to do as such
Do you have the statistics against statistics?
As soon as you introduce almost any other relevant category to the false dichotomy, the group that's being smeared by those statistics gets significantly less smeared.
These statistics shouldn't even be used in debate.. Unless you're talking stupidly vague
This is the issue of statistics, people apply composition/division fallacies to them all the damn time
Which breaks their meaning
for they only hold the meaning they literally state
Which is yeah why those statistics are useless in debate.
I fail to understand why this is an issue
Culturally right are lumped together
And compared against culturally left
Hence, the statistic
Because the left uses it to paint all right groups as monsters that kill people
They do.
....
The right kills more than the left do
*Recently* that is
