Left-wing extremism is linked to toxic, psychopathic tendencies and narcissism, according to a new study published to the peer-reviewed journal Current Psychology.

Over the past decade, the Anti-Defamation League has counted about 450 U.S. murders committed by political extremists.

Of these 450 killings, right-wing extremists committed about 75 percent. Islamic extremists were responsible for about 20 percent, and left-wing extremists were responsible for 4 percent.

Nearly half of the murders were specifically tied to white supremacists:

As this data shows, the American political right has a violence problem that has no equivalent on the left. And the 10 victims in Buffalo this past weekend are now part of this toll. “Right-wing extremist violence is our biggest threat,” Jonathan Greenblatt, the head of the ADL, has written. “The numbers don’t lie.”

Since the Times article is behind a paywall, and they are most known for pushing left wing policies, I believe nothing they publish.

Now back to the original theory.

Left wing violence linked to mental health issues.

Here is a list.

Don't forget the summer of love burning and looting

Any thoughts on Portland?

450 killings by white supremacist in 10 years?

That’s a slow weekend of killings by black people in left wing Democrat cities.

Apples and oranges. Most of that violence in cities is gangs fighting and criminals robbing. Has nothing to do with politics.

So, are you ignoring the list that SS linked to with 179 acts of Leftist violence, or are you unable to recognize apples?

If one has never tripped on something on a stage they haven’t been on a stage very often.

There is enough insanity to go around for the entire political spectrum.

We're not talking about "tripping". We're talking about falling. Again. And again. And Again.

Most things people dismiss as insane are things they just don't understand.
