Follow the money, you will find russians
Far right is historically responsible for most terrorism. Religious extremism, facism, colonialism and authoritarianism
No no no no no
This is police statistics This only means how many people were suspected of a crime
Innocent until proven guilty!
I am so tired of seeing this every year. Yes our inherently racist police aprehended lots of PoC. That does not mean shit except maybe that our police needs to stop racial profiling.
Also yes I know this is mainly about a rise in far right violence but guess who those stupid fucks try to blame!
So potentially more than half of them are motivated by far-left ideology?
Nope. Scroll down to the first graph. Bars are (in the graph, not legend), form top to bottom: Total, right, diverse, left, foreign ideology, religious ideology.
So the large majority of these “crimes” were people saying mean things?
Not even necessarily that, if you take a marker to an election poster and draw a dick on it that's a political crime, property damage, orientation "diverse".
It's a statistic, a very raw statistic, not an analysis, which is why politicians love to throw those numbers around. It's also not amount of crime as in "someone got sentenced" but "police has a file on this". Cases are counted as long as they're open so a single one can show up in the statistics for multiple years.
