    Thank you for these great examples of how very limited the existence of “left extremism” really is. Maybe instead of trying to stoke concern about statistically non-existent threats, you could focus on the actual threat of the tens of millions of fascists who voted in the last U.S. election. Should I really be concerned about your examples that account for almost zero percent of today’s U.S. population?

    I’m not sure if you’re just trying to stoke fear about a non-existent threat or if you think playing Devil’s Advocate is helpful to someone. Either way, your comments can only serve to distract from the actual threat of conservatism.

    P.s. Ted Kaczynski was quite outspoken in his rejection of the left. He even wrote against the left in his infamous manifesto. I don’t have any idea why you would include him in your list of “left extremists”.

      All it was was someone asked what left wing extremism looked like. Why are you so offended by the fact they can exist. I have no agenda here.
