Most of the political violence in the U.S. during the past 50 years has been by RIGHT-WING FANATICS -- especially mass casualty events.
Some of the violence attributed to left-wing actors was actually the result of white nationalists who hoped to foment RAHOWA (racial holy war). For details see: "Minneapolis police say 'Umbrella Man' was a white supremacist trying to incite George Floyd rioting" at
Another example came to public attention when Donald Trump Jr. posted a message on social media which DTJ attributed to "ANTIFA" -- calling for violence. However, it was later determined that the message was authored by another white nationalist -- who (like the Umbrella Man) wanted to incite a racial civil war in our country.
During the 1950's and 1960's the Klan and similar white hate groups (like the Birch Society) would attribute racial crimes to "wet squads" whose actual affiliation was to the left-wing. However, subsequent investigation and trials convicted members of the Klan or members of white hate groups like National States Rights Party.
The right-wing in our country wants to create the impression that ALL evil and ALL mayhem and ALL corruption is exclusively a product of LEFT-wing actors and ideology. What they are trying to do is claim that the ONLY enemies we have in our country are motivated by left-wing individuals and organizations because, in their minds, the right-wing in incapable of doing ANYTHING illegal or immoral or unethical. That way, the right creates an "enemies" list which they think makes conservative values and political positions the only legitimate political discourse in the United States.
The most recent sham is an attempt to persuade Americans (as the John Birch Society just has done on its magazine website) that the Buffalo murderer actually had LEFT-wing beliefs and objectives. But historically, the John Birch Society has always aligned itself with the worst racist elements in our country---including people they hired as speakers and writers who were racial bigots and some were even Hitler-admirers.
