The wrongs of the alt right are covered here pretty extensively already, for pages and pages. I've made it clear on multiple occasions that I find Trumpism to be awful. If you want me to come out and condemn it again, then yes, I condemn it. I'm not criticising the alt left to defend the alt right, I criticise it because in my view it contributed to the conditions that allowed the alt right to thrive. |
The condition that allowed the alt right to thrive is not found on the left but rather the right cultivating there base to be angry people who are happy when you tell them there problem is caused by other groups of people. It's the right politician and especially Trump not giving any consideration for facts and allowing conspiracy theorist to thrive because it serve them. You even had Trump promoting conspiracy theory in the wake of Paul Pelosi attack. Trump promoting violence against peaceful protester, Trump actually using violence against peaceful protester for a photo op. Trump asking supremacist group to be on stand by, Trump pardoning it's actual violent protester because they like him.
Political violence is increasing simply because politician on the right have made conspiracy theories that demonize people they don't like all what they are about while excusing most heinous act they are doing themselves.
