Let me fix that for you. Lots of maga are idealists (even if their ideas are not based in the real world), a number of them are LARPers and a small number are hard core intent on eliminating “the enemy”. To think that no maga member is violent and entertains violent options, is denying reality. Also it’s disingenuous to think they are all out of their minds looking to overthrow the government. Many just have ideals that don’t align with the mainstream. https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115398251623299921 https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/1153982516232... https://www.gettyimages.com/videos/jan-6 https://www.gettyimages.com/videos/jan-6

That doesn’t work. maga aren’t idealists, they are deeply cynical, atavistic reactionaries.

Its not controversial to say that right wing extremists exist, some of which even commit violence, so your analogy isn't the brilliant whataboutism gotcha that you intended it to be. So yes, just like some very far right people exist, that can justifiably be called terrorists, so to do some very far left individuals.

  > just like some very far right people exist The difference being they have support from the president. Whereas on the left, it's just some random "person" on Twitter. Republicans and MAGA literally supports terrorists. This isn't a debate. It's fact.

    No, its not random people on twitter. If you read the statements that were put it, it involved actual terroristic actions of a variety of groups to sabotage critical infrastructure.

        Name the people in the US government on the doing this? Go ahead. I'll wait. Oh wait... Go ahead and show me the the people in the German government on the left doing this?

      Name the people in the US government on the left doing this? Go ahead. You can't. You can't even name the people that I weren't even referencing. It's random people. But I can point to the literal President of the USA.

        Yeah so I said this: "it involved actual terroristic actions of a variety of groups to sabotage critical infrastructure." I would say that people who are sabotaging powerplants count as being called far left terrorists. And that is both dangerous and bad. It is not just a random person making tweets. Instead its people sabotaging powerplants. It is silly to dismiss that all as just being on twitter. When power plants are sabotaged that can kill people.
