A recently released Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) document titled “Domestic Terrorism Symbols Guide”* links common protest symbols to “terrorism” — another marker in a common theme of conflating militant protest for social justice with deadly terrorist violence within the United States. Groups like the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Brennan Center have raised warnings about such documents, citing inadequate protections for people’s constitutional rights.

    Yes, the radical right is a problem but that doesn’t mean that the radical left isn’t one. Yes, right may be a bigger problem than left but that isn’t the point

    The point is that radicalism is the bad thing here, whether it’s left or right. I’m tired of having discussions about why it’s actually ba bad thing to “kick a Nazi” as some people just don’t understand the obvious.

        And then I disagree and then you call me a nazi for disagreeing with you and now you got to the point where it’s okay to kick people that disagree with you.

        That is the point you lazy pretenders always seem to miss
