As some of you may remember, the legacy media jerked themselves into a stupor a few years back over a report which claimed, somewhat improbably to say the least, that “right wing terrorism” was a greater threat to the US than Islamic terrorism.
Never mind that the claim was swiftly and easily debunked. The legacy media have a narrative to push. They clutch their pearls and faint at the merest suggestion of right-wing violence (however obviously staged – yes, we’re looking at you Jussie Smollett) while completely ignoring a tidal wave of left-wing violence which has ensued since the Trump election in 2016.
Well, because the legacy media won’t tell you, here’s a round-up of just a few of the latest outbreaks of left-wing violence.
A man in Florida is under arrest after he deliberately drove a van into a tent where [Republican] voters were being registered, authorities in Jacksonville said Sunday[…]

Luckily, no one was injured or killed, but the intent is clear. Far from remorseful, the suspect has subsequently smiled and bragged his way through court appearances.

As reported recently on The BFD, when caught committing a hate crime, leftist haters will just lie that they’re the real victims.

Remember when the media wouldn’t stop yammering for weeks because a member of Trump’s entourage merely touched the arm of a female reporter who got too close to the then-candidate?

Bernie Sanders (I-VT) rally yesterday in Austin, Texas[…]Shroyer’s security team says the crowd rushed Shroyer and his security, resulting in a physical altercation that left one man with a serious wound on his face that required stitches.

This comes just a few months after journalist Andy Ngo was brutally assaulted by Antifa, and after a Sanders campaign worker was filmed calling for gulags and violence.
The jihadis haven’t exactly been slack, either. Did you read about this particularly horrible attack in the mainstream media? Of course, you didn’t.
Corey Johnson attacked Jovanni Alexander Sierra and others in 2018 in a horrifying attack in 2018. Johnson, who had converted to Islam prior to the attack, had been under investigation by the FBI because he was viewing radicalization propaganda online, including beheading videos[…] Sierra died of his injuries, including a slash at his throat, and Johnson is to be tried as an adult for the crime.

Yet the reaction from the legacy media to all of this has been…crickets.
“The [media’s] silence was deafening. The violence against conservatives, Republicans, and Trump supporters is so prevalent and so underreported, if at all,” [Donald] Trump Jr. told “Fox & Friends.”
Trump Jr. noted that if that attack were to happen to a supporter of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., or Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., it would be the “number one news story all over America.”
“There’s not a journalist that wouldn’t be covering it ad nauseum for weeks. … It’s getting to the point of tacit complicity from the left and from the media, which are basically the same thing at this point. It’s truly disgusting,”

With Trump looking more and more likely to win another term this November, expect the leftist violence to ramp up.
