"guy who watches CNN did something bad"
Like the other guy, I have no clue what you're ranting about. Tell me, though, how many far-left political murders have we had of late? I'll wait. In the meantime, we seem to have many on the far right, from Oklahoma City down to Christchurch. So, yeah, I hate whataboutism, but it seriously seems as if one side is fear-mongered into violence, not both sides.
It's intellectually dishonest to take crazy-ass motherfuckers who go shoot up schools and churches, and try to pin down their politics, and then go and blame an entire political movement on it.
It's really the lowest-hanging fruit. But if you want to play these games... the number is definitely not zero.
Steve Scalise was nearly killed by a Bernie fan shooting at him:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Congressional_baseball_shooting#InjuriesChristChurch shooter said "Communist China" is the closest to his ideal society. His own words, you can find it yourself. That's Far-Left, if you just must ascribe politics to someone clinically insane.
Asides from counting individual crazy mass shooters over the years, we must also take into account the continuous bullying and violence coming from the Left toward the Right, which has become as routine and normalized as harassment of Jews in Nazi Germany.
There was a phrase in "Schindler's List" which stuck with me. "It's not just your good old-fashioned Jew hatred - it's policy now."
Chilling. This is how things go. And where I live, in Northern California, if you want to experience the violence of the Left - just put a Trump sticker on your car. Try to go to a bar with a Trump hat on.
Try to have a simple peaceful rally that's pro-border control. I was attacked at such a rally - for doing nothing except wearing a red cap. Which didn't even have MAGA on it - just the American flag.
The stores in Berkeley are scared of the local Brownshirts - who hijacked the name "antifa" and smear its legitimacy with their actions. If you don't put out virtue-signaling banners and stickers about how you hate Trump, or some other Far-Left cause, your store will get vandalized.
You want to see the violent face of the Far-Left today? Here it is:
