Much of this research suggests that compared to left-wing extremists, right-wing extremists may be more likely to engage in politically motivated violence. In comparison to left-wing supporters, right-wing individuals are more often characterized by closed-mindedness and dogmatism (9) and a heightened need for order, structure, and cognitive closure (5). Because such characteristics have been found to increase in-group bias and lead to greater out-group hostility (10), violence for a cause may be more likely among proponents of right-wing ideologies.
I should emphasize this:
may be more likely.
May be more likely based on some specific criteria determined by the researchers. In the real world, antifa and blm caused virtually all politically motivated death and destruction in the last 10 years.
Also you're just interpreting it wrong. That's language they have to use because you can't determine individual actions with certainty - but you can group a bunch of like people together and analyze them from there. The key words you're ignoring is much of the research suggestsmuch
However, over the past 12 years, their number has greatly increased. Most of these mass killings were committed by right-wing extremists, but left-wing and domestic Islamist extremists were also responsible for incidents. The Center on Extremism has identified 62 extremist-connected mass killing incidents since 1970, with 46 of them being ideologically motivated. Disturbingly, more than half (26, or 57%) of the ideological mass killings have occurred within the past 12 years. Of particular concern in recent years are shootings inspired by white supremacist “accelerationist” propaganda urging such attacks.
It is likely that non-ideological murders committed by extremists other than white supremacists are underrepresented in ADL’s data.
White supremacists are easy to identify. Other politically motivated extremists are tougher to identify due them not normally having their political affiliations tattooed directly onto their skin.
Yes, extremists are scum, no matter the political affiliation.
But this article is talking about mass killings. None of blm’s or antifa’s killings or destruction are listed in these stats because they weren’t mass killings.
You’ll have to try harder if you’re gonna make excuses for left wing extremists.
You got this from a study, right?
Note the language… may be more likely.
May be more likely based on some specific metrics in the study, i would guess.
In actuality, left wing extremists actually engage in more politically motivated violence.
Any extremist is a retard, anyway, left or right.
All the studies i see in the Reddit comment section confirm that anyone not me is a Nazi
The studies are clear folks.
all the research shows that right wingers are more dangerous. https://ccjs.umd.edu/feature/umd-led-study-shows-disparities-violence-among-extremist-groups almost twice as likely 0.33 for left to 0.61 for right
Notice how you're not referencing anything but your own prejudice? That's not going to get you anywhere but more stuck in your own mental ruts
It’s EXACTLY as I suspected:

That's a bold claim with no backup.

Plus you're just objectively wrong:
