It seems I'm not getting my point across correctly.Although over here we’re discussing the graph where they’re separated. The right wing terrorism on the graph is not religious therefore emjay’s point stands.
The graph is in response to me not acknowledging right-wing violence.
What we talk about and what we categorise are two different things.
If a bunch of Muslims did something tomorrow. There'd be a lot of right-wing people shitting on them and pointing the blame at left-wing people (because Dems seem to support Arab/Muslim more) even though by definition, religious attacks are right-wing. Does that make sense?
Me talking about religious attacks was not whether they're actually grouped in that graph, but how we would talk about them on this forum.
OK now...to the point.
I'm complaining about BLM destroying stuff. I call them left-wing because of the party that seemingly backs them.
Under these actual definitions, BLM would be considered right-wing attacks...even though it's the Democrats who seem to support them.
I'm making a differentiation between spoken definition and actual definition.
A better way to explain it would be, Democrat-liked groups and Republican-liked groups, I guess. I interchangeably use left and right to mean Democrat and Republican. I assumed that's what we were all doing when we said left and right...?
Basically a right-wing thing can sometimes be supported by Democrats and vice-versa.
