A list of (alleged) Right-wing political violence, compiled by the ADL: in the last three years ALL the violence they recorded was labelled “Right wing”. All of it. Hardly credible, right? Indeed not.
For I did a deep dive into the ADL stats. All of it was by neo-Nazi biker gangs. Weird. Of course these bikies are neo-Nazi nutters. But their violence is all inter-gang. It’s about drugs and territory. And Ho’s. It’s not political violence. It’s just gang rivalry.
You get the picture.
That’s the ADL. The other source the Left relies on for its BS that “most political violence is right wing” is the Center for Strategic and International Studies. Which also cooks the books. Example: All anti-Jew violence is “right wing”?! WTF?! The Left has long been anti-Semitic. For the Right, violent anti-semitism a new thing — at least in this century — by the cooks in the “Woke Reich”. Like Tucker Carlson, Candice Owens and Nick Fuentes.

An example of how the Left cook the books to absolve the Left of violence in the Wall Street Journal today: A graph it published that seems to show near parity between Left and Right wing political violence is sourced to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, which by its own admission reclassified pro-Palestinian violence as "ethnonationalist".
It classifies all antisemitism as Right-wing, and all pro-Palestinian "attacks on Jewish individuals or institutions" as "ethnonationalist." This is just nakedly partisan propaganda presented as "data" and then mainstreamed in the American press. More in my column below linked.
The third assassination attempt on President Trump’s life this weekend has reignited a debate between Left and Right about where political violence in America comes from.
The Right points to the assassination attempts on the President, the murder of Charlie Kirk, the rise of Islamist terrorism, the rabid violence of the George Floyd riots, the elevation of political violence fan Hasan Piker to celebrity status in the Democratic Party, and the recent polling showing that the more liberal a person is, the more likely they are to support political violence.
On the Left, people point to January 6 as well as data purporting to show that most political violence comes from the Right. After Charlie Kirk’s assassination, The Economist ran a piece claiming to explain “what the data show,” which suggested that most political violence was a Right-wing phenomenon. Other publications cited studies from the Center for Strategic & International Studies or the CATO Institute. [Read on…]
