I agree, while right-wing terrorists may be more successful in taking lives, everyone who isn't a neo-Nazi knows neo-Nazi violence and terrorism is vile, but Dagger and I's problems with the far-left is more often than not, the left-leaning media, academics, and other personalities are willing to give Antifa a pass on the grounds of the childishly black and white, over-simplistic narrative of "there's no moral equivalence between people who promote racial hatred and those who are opposed to them", while two could play at that and say "there's no moral equivalence in those who support an ideology that killed 100 million people and those who oppose it". But there is a moral equivalence between those who support using violence as means to confront their political adversaries. And it isn't a stretch to say Antifa and other far-left extremists think of "right-winger", "Republican", "Conservative" is synonymous with "racist" or"neo-Nazi" when more than half of registered Democrats think Republicans are racist and sexist https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/416189-most-dems-view-republicans-racist-and-sexist-poll.

Which also speaks to something I've been trying to say since page 2. A lot of that prejudice towards other groups exists because we get so much of our knowledge from behind our computer/phone/tv screens, and don't bother to go out into the world to conceptualize it in a real world setting. Talk to your SJWs. Talk to your Proud Boys. And dispel the myths and nitpicks that the media weaves around them. Do so knowing that the ones you read about probably do exist. And they are just as abhorrent as you may have been led to believe. But hopefully you would have met enough of them by that point that the label just doesn't hold up anymore. At the age of 23, I was already doing this with skinhead punks. When I learned that my friend Chauncey had joined the skinheads, I was like "Oh shit, what have you gotten yourself into?" And he told me "No really man, it isn't like that." So he invited me along to see his band perform at one of their scenes, and low and behold, I go there, and not a neo nazi in site. Apparently they were actually cleaning out a lot of the racism and neo-nazis in their scene.

I'm not on them right now. I need to get on them is the problem.
