Antifa have committed numerous enough acts of violence to be labeled a domestic terrorist group and instead of plots you have actual congressmen (Steve Scalise) being shot by a leftist. HN is a place for avoiding our biases not doubling down on them.


Don’t forget Aaron Danielson, Lee Keltner, David Dorn, and Antonio Mays Jr., if for not other reason than to understand anger on the right (and from moderates) at their deaths.

edit: Downvoted for relevant, if uncomfortable factual statements on HN? I thought we were better than this.

Anybody can label anybody as a terrorist group. I’m not sure that says anything useful. The shooting does count though, as far as I know.


Why not double down? Go on - a few more clicks and you won't even see be reminded anymore of what everyone has seen over the summer in many US cities. And it worked!
