"most domestic terrorism is perpetrated by white Christians who buy into far-right ideology"
This isn't true and has been debunked multiple times. A person that happens to be Christian and commits an act of terrorism is completely different than one that commits an act of terrorism in the name of Islam.
If you want to look at mass shootings, there are more gang-related mass shootings of 3 or more people than any other kind. This is conveniently left out to create a nice narrative that you describe.
Even if you left the above out, there are still very few white/Christian right-leaning acts of Domestic Terrorism. Much less per/capita, number of people killed, and overall totals than other groups.
If you pay attention to the press, if it is a white person that did the shooting, they are immediately demonized as a right-leaning white-nationalist before anybody knows the true facts.
This latest case of the navy base shooting? They need to investigate, even through there is plenty of evidence already of the contrary.
"sympathies lie with white supremacists, dominionists, and fascists"
Yeah, well, I deal in reality, not fantasy. White supremacists are a joke and few and far between.
I honestly have never met anyone in person like this. However, I've met plenty of hard-left antifa Fascists. Especially on college campuses that have no problem with violence.
