People under 18 are represented by their parents.

You see, that's why nobody can take the alt-left seriously. You state a simple fact of life and they pile up on you as if you just said that eating live babies is good for your health.

No one takes the "Alt-Left" seriously because it doesn't exist, dude.

Michael Tracey and the whole Young Turks crew, Glenn Greenwald, Amazing Atheist, much of reddit, H.A .Goodman, yes there is an "Alt-Left".

That's not the "alt left", its a bunch of random idiot blowhards. Some aren't even "left" (H.A. Goodman even has "TRUMP 2020" in his Twitter name now)

I haven't seen much activity from Goodman lately, so not surprised he swung to the right. Point is that most of those above commentators have engaged in online left bashing that's been common since the 2016 election. Just to be clear, as much as I steel clear of Bernie Sanders he's nowhere the vitriol of the surrounded group of people cited.

Anyway, its because there's a strong bias against declaring (christian) right wing terror as terror.

This comment is in regards to an explicitly anti-Christian group.

I was referring to how islamic terrorism is treated.

It's treated as a bigger problem because it is the bigger problem.

White terrorists kill more people than islamic terrorists by a pretty big margin.

1-White != Christian. Not all white people are Christian. There also are white people who are Muslim, including some terrorists.

Until last year I didn't realize that Timothy McVeigh wasn't actually Christian, but an open agnostic who happened to be right-wing. It's dangerous to presume any right-winger is some wacky fundamentalist Christian if the motives have nothing to do with religion or lack therefore.
