OK. I will stay humble in my assertions since I’m too lazy to research the matter myself. But I am almost certain that there is not proportionality. That the far-right terrorist acts tend to be much smaller in scale and creating few victims and far fewer fatalities. Arson, that sort of thing. And that this qualitative difference in the terrorism is therefore the cause of much misunderstanding and indeed bad feeling in this debate, as some feel that they see an obvious false equivalence. But I’m straying from confirmed facts and liable to get accused of terrible things so I will stop there.
This whole line of argumentation is lazy. Claiming that arson doesn’t create victims and doesn’t potentially kill people. wtf?
The whole “difference in quality” comes down to reporting. Burning refugee homes is so normal that it often only makes local news here.
