For the last century, almost all of the major genocides have been carried out by left-wing governments. And virtually all of the recent mass shooters were leftists

Challengers from the Sidelines: Understanding America's Violent Far-Right
In the last few years, and especially since 2007, there has been a
dramatic rise in the number of attacks and violent plots originating
from individuals and groups who self-identify with the far-right of
American politics. These incidents cause many to wonder whether these
are isolated attacks, an increasing trend, part of increasing societal
violence, or attributable to some other condition. To date, however,
there has been limited systematic documentation and analysis of
incidents of American domestic violence.
This study provides a conceptual foundation for understanding different
far-right groups and then presents the empirical analysis of violent
incidents to identify those perpetrating attacks and their associated
trends. Through a comprehensive look at the data, this study addresses
three core questions:
(1) What are the main current characteristics of the violence produced
by the far right?
(2) What type of far-right groups are more prone than others to engage
in violence? How are characteristics of particular far-right groups
correlated with their tendency to engage in violence?
(3) What are the social and political factors associated with the level
of far-right violence? Are there political or social conditions that
foster or discourage violence?
It is important to note that this study concentrates on those
individuals and groups who have actually perpetuated violence and is not
a comprehensive analysis of the political causes with which some
far-right extremists identify. While the ability to hold and
appropriately articulate diverse political views is an American
strength, extremists committing acts of violence in the name of those
causes undermine the freedoms that they purport to espouse.
