or years, we were told by government officials and outside “experts” that the terrorists in our midst were mostly right-wing fanatics – a list that under the Biden administration came to include parents who spoke up at local school board meetings and Catholics who like the Latin mass.
But even the left is now admitting what everyone else already knows.
Namely, that despite their constant bleating about tolerance and peace, it’s leftists who pose the greatest threat to Americans.
This week, the Trump-hating Atlantic magazine published an article titled “Left-Wing Terrorism Is on the Rise,” written by scholars at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).
“We found that left-wing terrorism has increased since President Donald Trump’s rise to political prominence in 2016. Indeed, 2025 marks the first time in more than 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber those from the far right.”
By early July, “far-left extremists had already been responsible for five terrorist attacks and plots, putting 2025 on pace to be the left’s most violent year in more than three decades.”
And their list doesn’t include the killer who slaughtered two children in a Minneapolis church, the gunman who shot up ABC10 in Sacramento, the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the killing in a New Hampshire restaurant by a gunman who shouted “free Palestine,” or the attempted assassination of ICE agents in Dallas by a shooter who engraved bullet casings with “Anti-ICE” (but who ended up killing an illegal immigrant). All of these political attacks were committed by leftists — in just the past month.
It’s likely even worse and much more lopsided than that.
We don’t know what the CSIS authors are counting as “left wing” or “right wing” terrorist attacks, but our guess is that – based on other such assessments – they have downplayed the former and exaggerated the latter. Does CSIS include the 2020 BLM riots or the pro-Hamas campus sieges or the multitude of Antifa attacks as left-wing terrorism?
A widely cited report from the Anti-Defamation League claimed that three-quarters of “extremist” killings from 2015 to 2024 were carried out by right-wingers. But a closer look found that the ADL stretched the meaning of “right wing” to the point of absurdity to increase those numbers, while ignoring some even obvious left-wing killings – such as the assassination of the UnitedHealthcare CEO by an overtly leftist (alleged) attacker.
A recent paper published by the libertarian Cato Institute made the same mistake. For example, the Cato paper counts Peyton Gendron, who murdered 10 people in a Buffalo supermarket and whose manifesto described himself as an “eco-fascist national socialist,” as “right-wing.”
The Cato report also “omitted genuine left-wing killers from his list entirely, including the Waukesha Christmas parade attacker who drove his truck through a crowd in 2021, killing six people,” notes PJ Media. And it failed to count any of the Black Lives Matter violence of the 2020s as “left wing.”
Yet, even with these caveats, the CSIS report found a sharp rise in left-wing terrorist attacks — which should come as no surprise to anyone.
For years, we’ve been pointing out polls that show that those on the left are far more likely to say violence is an acceptable form of political expression. (See, for example, “ Will Left’s Violent Tendencies Lead To U.S. Breakup Or Dictatorship?” March 16, 2021, or “Left-Wing Rage: Don’t Pretend It Doesn’t Exist,” Aug. 18, 2023.)
For most of the past decade, Democrats, the mainstream media, and academia have provided a steady stream of strident and increasingly radicalized language to describe Republicans and conservatives. A new report from the Capital Research Center finds that George Soros’ Open Society Foundations funneled more than $80 million to groups “tied to terrorism or extremist violence.”
They called Trump a fascist. They called Charlie Kirk a fascist. They called ICE officials fascists. Heck, they called anyone they disagreed with a fascist. Over and over and over and over again. Worse, they actively encouraged attacks and celebrated assassins.
How hard is it to believe that all this talk is motivating their fellow leftists to take direct and violent action? These days, it’s not hard at all.
How likely is it that they will admit their culpability and tone down their rhetoric? What’s a snowball’s chance in Hell?

What are they calling far-right terror?
Praying at abortion mills.
Since the early 1900s. Somehow, after over 100 years of this happening repeatedly it still seems to surprise people.
For the love of your country pick up some old books and READ.
It is important to know what happened in the past so you are not continually blind sided by the same thing happening on repeat.
[[What are they calling far-right terror?]]
Wrong-think
“What are they calling far-right terror?”
Refusing to use preferred pronouns?
Demanding males stay out of female’s private spaces?
Insisting our children not be forcibly injected with poison?
Wanting America to be for Americans?
Speaking truth without intimidation?
All those things are considered elements of the “far-right”.
I find that much easier to live with than the “far-left” ideals.
“ 2025 marks the first time in more than 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber those from the far right”.
Pure bull💩. That claim is mostly based on the far left anti-defamation league (ADL) studies that target conservtive, Christian pre-schools etc.
They didn’t even count the literal thousands of acts of violence and arson that occurred under the George Floyd/Brianna Taylor BLMTIFA riots.
Bald Faced LIE! Making noise to blame Trump.
“Indeed, 2025 marks the first time in more than 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber those from the far right.”
Fooken liars.
But I refer to the fact that people just seem so very shocked that those dear sweet fresh faced leftist moppets would be involved in terrorism.
It has happened repeatedly for the past century and every time people are somehow shocked.

Our military has a great deal of recent experience with building to building pacification and city fighting.
“”Praying at abortion mills.””
Well, if you think about it... logically... praying would be a form of terrorism to the leftists opposing us. Praying terrorizes the demons we’re fighting against.
Just look at how the Congressional Democrats refused to hold a moment of silence or prayer for Charlie Kirk.

BREAKING - An active shooter opened fire on a church in Grand Blanc, Michigan, with multiple victims confirmed, and then set the building ablaze. The suspect is believed to be neutralized.
Insurrection.
It will be non stop until the election. Liberals are THAT desperate

The above is why they despise Charlie Kirk
Force a discussion, go to a BlueSky or Reddit-like site and pose the question: if the non-left were to behave like the left, who would be targets? Throw in a few beloved names to get things rolling, like Destiny, Sam Harris, Jkimmel etc.
What right wing attacks, exactly? Be specific. I don't recall any but there were plenty from the left for YEARS.
For Marxism, anyways.
