I agree with this. Anti-Trump protestors seem a lot more violent than the other protestors who get mentioned when people want to defend them. I find it rather dishonest for someone to claim "both sides are equally as bad"... No, not at all. Like you mentioned, the level of violence of Anti-Trump protestors far outweighs the anti-Obama protestors. Sure it is a minority of all the anti trump people who do these shitty things but is that really a reasonable argument when violence is occuring so often? Nobody is saying most anti-Trump protestors light people on fire but rather that violence is a very serious concern at these protest, more so then it should be. Imagine if only 1% of KKK members lynched people...... and there were a million KKK members! The threat of violence in this case is VERY real and there is clearly something about the movement causing these people to commit violence. An extreme example, I know, but I want to point out that just because it is a small minority doesn't mean it should be overlooked. In this case would anybody ever dare say "well it is less than %1 of them doing this, most of them are non-violent". The anti-Trump people are more violent than other peaceful protestors, we should try and understand the cause of this as clearly it has something to do with the movement itself. I think the cause is when the media (Young Turk's Ana Kasparian being the worst) and Hillary Clinton claims every single Trump supporter are bigoted, racist, sexist, homophobic, islamaphobic, transphobic and xenophobic. To most reasonable people this is just silly, but many people actually believe it (especially college student on my campus). Who really feels bad when a person who is all these things is assualted? A lot of the anti-trump people become detached from reality. picture an actual Nazi getting punched by Jewish man or a black man punching a KKK member. That is how anti-trump liberals view themselves as they punch a Trump supporter.
Have you seen what happens at every Milo Yianopolis college speech? at literally every single one of them protestors arrive to block the entrance from people to get into the lecture hall. and in most of the recent ones it turns violent as the protestors start screaming and assualting people (usually spitting on them or shoving). These protests are mostly because Milo is a Trump supporter lol. If Milo were to come to any big University across the western world, it is almost certain crazed protestors will show up to intimidate the attendees. Once again a minority by far but the threat they present is very real and in this case it is literally unavoidable for most who want to see Milo speak. |
Just to give some more info on that...
It's quite common that the head of several movements in Brazil that are linked to left wing incentivate the disturbances, violance and the like.
The head of MST, MTST, CUT and some political parties publically say that rightwing deserve to die, to be shot down, etc.
