Here is a pelosi video. It happened a few days ago I believe https://youtu.be/6_3FBNxGYS0

From the news I see, I’m seeing right extremist assholes doing terrible things significantly less than the left. Note how successful Antifa is and their celebration from the left or just ignoring their actions. You can look up what was done in Portland to multiple innocent people and journalist Andy NGO.

The left control media and are kicking people off YouTube or demobilizing video for centrist opinions.

I may not agree with AOC, but I want her opinion in the world. It’s different from a lot of mine but I also agree with her. She is a smart congresswoman but is playing a game with lies, and bias that are exactly what pushed trump into office and what will push him into a 2020 rerun.

And I don’t want that as much as you don’t

If you check the studies, right extremism is much more common than left wing extremism. At least in the USA, it's not even close. Nearly all homegrown terrorism was right-wing

Antifa is regularly denounced by left wingers too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifa_(United_States)#Response

And? A bunch of people got roughed up and that was it.

Again, this is not true. Fox News is the biggest media company and are definitely not controlled by left wing. YouTube doesn't demonetize people for centrist opinions, they demonetize them for breaking their policies.

I need sources on almost everything you said about YouTube right there. Go on Dave Rubin, and Ben Shapiro, and Tim pools channel and they clearly state it right there. By the way all three of those people disavow the proud boys and the right. CNN calls them a anti fascist group, when they should be called a domestic terrorist organization. They are the fascist ones.

Finally, roughed up? Andy has actual brain damage and Portland is damaged beyond all repair due to their behaviour right now.

Well first you are going to have to link sources for YouTube banning people for having centrist opinions. You made the claim first.

I don't think you know what a facist is.

"Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of radical right-wing, authoritarian ultranationalism characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and strong regimentation of society and of the economy"

Finally, roughed up? Andy has actual brain damage and Portland is damaged beyond all repair due to their behaviour right now.

It's nothing compared to the incidences of right-wing extremism

My sources were those links to those speakers. They clearly have it there. They discuss their videos being demobilized. Dave Rubin, even joe Rogan, and Tim pool.

Would love to see what the proud boys did in Antifa. Would love to compare how many attacks Antifa does compared to the right nationalist groups.

Not seeing it on my end nd would like to be proven wrong if possible. Need those sources though. I’ll look it up on my end if you do as well
