I checked their domestic terror list and went back through every right wing case up till 2020. There were only 12. Five of them are highly questionable. Let’s get into them.
Up first: Henderson, Solomon Sahmad Charlie. Umm look at him. They called him right wing because he was an incel and shot up his school. Image
Considering how all white supremacist violence is categorized as right wing it’s surprising how much diversity is classified as right wing violence. The second one is Garcia, Mauricio Martinez. Now, I’m not one to take the ADL as a source of truth, but I thought it worth sharing their commentary on this one:Image
Image
Next is Robert Aaron long. He’s the guy who shotup those Asian massage parlors because he was mad that he kept hiring prostitutes. Someone might need to walk me through how this makes him right wing… Image
Image
Finally a double, two men (two races) did a drive by shooting of federal officers during a blm riot. You know, the famous right wing riots directed against law enforcement. Image
Image
Bonus from the foreign terrorism list. I didn’t really bother with this one because it’s basically 100% islamist, but one marked as right wing extremism is an Indian man who tried to drive a u-haul through the White House gates, thinking he could kill the president and make himself the new Nazi leader of the United States. Like I said lots of racial diversity in the far right.Image
Image
The inclusion of school shooters as “right wing” is usually based off their time spent on racist message boards and their adoption of Nazi/ white supremacist talking points. Him being black takes that off the table. His actual beliefs were a nihilistic satanist. Which at best is apolitical, and more honestly a product of left wing ideologies. There is simply nothing that puts him in line with any right wing thinking.
I don’t have the time or resources to check the endless omissions but both Darrel brooks and Rodney Hinton are not on their list of terrorists. Another notable missing event is the Las Vegas shooting. Image

When you pay attention you quickly realize how many of their arguments are disputes about framing disguised as disputes about facts.

“White flight” was a response to the crime wave American cities saw in the 1960s-1990s. Libs are taught this was white america being racist fleeing from black neighbors as segregation was formally ended. Point out that what the whites fleeing the cities really didn’t like was the violent crime and their governments inability or unwillingness to stop this crime, and they will start calling you names. You’ve recast their narrative’s illogical hateful villains as not only pragmatic reasonable citizens, but as victims.

You can throw a stone into any American conflict and hit some sacred cow that justifies the progressive hatred of this country and her people. By simply explaining the point of view of the villainized, exactly as they would have explained themself, the progressive reacts in horror.

“How can you say that? My Zinn inspired history book said the opposite!” This is when the insults come raining down.Image
Ask any of these guys why they moved to a nice neighborhood and they’ll say, ohh it’s safe, the schools are nice etc etc etc… then ask them why grandma and grandpa moved to their neighborhood to start a family and it’s, “ohh they just hated black people.” Like really? That’s what you honestly think? It’s just silly.
It’s a completely unexamined line given to them by authority figures when they were too young to recognize communist subversion.

In 1862 during the civil war the Sioux used the opportunity to attack undefended frontier settlements. They killed nearly 400 men women and children. They took as hostages 300 women and children. They drove some 30,000 settlers off their land.

The military took time to rally enough troops to respond amidst the civil war. When they did, they killed some 150 natives and captured hundreds more. The freed the hostages and hanged the leaders of the attack in one of the largest mass executions in U.S. history; 18 in total. Part of the unconditional surrender of the Sioux was moving westward, away from the border they attacked.

20 years later a Sioux cult emerged. The belief that Jesus Christ had returned to earth as an Indian. The Sioux believed he had returned to cleanse the land of the white man and would restore the lives of the Indians that had fallen. The cult developed a ritual known as the ghost dance, which included a black shirt many Sioux believed to be bullet proof.

The ghost dance was a prayer, a prayer of genocide. A prayer that the white man would be exterminated. It spread to every Sioux tribe.

Given the history of unprovoked attacks on undefended settlements this call to genocide was taken seriously by the citizens living near the Sioux. They pled with the government to take action.

The U.S. ordered the Sioux to disarm, turning over their fire arms. During the disarmament members of the tribe started performing the ghost dance. Soldiers were on edge. One Sioux refused to turn over his rifle firing at the soldiers. Several others revealed hidden guns beneath their cloaks and began firing on the soldiers. Unarmed tribesmen garbed in their “bullet proof” shirts grabbed blunt objects and axes and struck at the nearest soldier. The army opened fire. It was chaos. There were mass casualties on both sides.

The Sioux lost. They were forced further back from civilization. They were never able to fulfill their prayer of white genocide.

Thank God our government did not allow a band of genocidal tribesman to exist near our borders. Our world is a better place for removing that threat.
Think about the insane amount of social conditioning that it took to make people ignore the sacrifice your ancestors made to protect you from a genocidal threat, while sympathizing with the genocidal threat.

Ok, I guess I’ll give you an opportunity to be smug. The study he’s referencing is only looking at tech start ups. The h1b process is fairly complicated, so I believe the study is measuring something else. It’s measuring the logistical competence of start up companies. Its measure of success wasn’t revenue or patents, but IPO and VC investment. What makes these early companies attractive to investors? The corporate logistical structure to handle complex legal and administrative tasks is good indicator they’re a serious player. This has nothing to do with the HIB employees they hire.

Now there are other studies that actually focus on existing firms and the impact of H1B workers. They find modest to no impact on revenue or patent filling, they find that the hiring crowds out native applicants, and most importantly they find hiring prices down workers wages. Which is exactly what opponents of H1B visas argue.Image
At a certain point you have to be willing to say, hey, those guys who dismissed this out of hand were right. They’re often right, what keeps making them right?
From the people who brought you “Did you know women are paid 77 on the dollar compared to men?” “Did you know black employees make firms better?” “Did you know firms with more women execs are more profitable?” Bring you “did you know foreigners are better hires than natives?”

The weather underground where are they now?: Kathy Boudin

Kathy was one of the original members of the weather underground, a group of left wing terrorists that bombed 25 state buildings, including the pentagon, DoD, State department head quarters, and the capitol building. In a desperate attempt to get more funding the group targeted a bank truck. I’ll cover the robbery in a different thread, but the short version is three men were killed, and Kathy was one of the getaway drivers. She was sentenced to 20 year to life for felony murder.Image
In 2003 after 23 years of her sentenced served she was released by the parole board. She started to work in a hospital in an AIDS clinic. In 2013 she started teaching a Columbia as a professor in social work. She specialized in anti-prison ideologies, founding the Center for Justice. The organization is dedicated to… reduce prison populations. Radical communist murderer goes on to teach our children why we shouldn’t have prisons.Image
Speaking of children she had a son with one of her fellow terrorists involved with the armored truck robbery. His name? Chesa Boudin. He was adopted by fellow weather underground terrorist bill ayers, mentor and ghost writer for Barack Obama. Chesa went on to get a law degree, following his parents footsteps in focusing on de-incarceration. He ran for San Fransisco district attorney, funded by George Soros. He assumed office in 2020. His platform was to let criminals out of jail, and decriminalize “minor” offenses. Like homelessness loitering, shop lifting. The results were predictable and well documented elsewhere.Image

I don’t have time to do all of that, but I did check the three month period starting Nov 2021. Worth noting this time period includes date of sentencing, not date of incident.

There were 26 cases listed. 7 were dismissible outright. I’ll get into those in this thread.

In addition to the 7 dismissible ones, two were prison violence by white prison gangs. The database tracks no other racial gang violence. One was a dispute over littering that lead to violence, the guy was white his neighbor Mexican this was also marked as right wing violence. Two cases were guys putting hateful stickers around town, definitely political and hateful, but they were stickers… One was a Chinese man who had a hit list of people, mostly dems but his motives seemed to be anti-USA and was targeting the current administration. Then there were two firearm charges, white supremacists charged with converting rifles to full auto. They were white supremacists, but their crime had nothing to do with ideology. So I would categorize these 8 as questionable.
Right off the bat, two of the cases were people arrested and charged for protesting peacefully at abortion clinics. The inclusion of these should be enough to throw out the rest of the data as worthless. Image
Next we have an armed robbery targeting Mexicans. The armed robbers were black… this was counted as three different events since there were multiple perps. Idk if the forth perp was charged he wasn’t on the list. Image
