We don't even really need to check who has been defending or denouncing what if you want to see who's committing violence, there's an even more damning statistic.
Number of People Killed in Deadly Attacks in the Post-9/11 Era, by Ideology
Far Right Wing: 134
Jihadist: 107
Ideological Misogyny/Incel Ideology: 17
Black Separatist/Nationalist/Supremacist: 13
Far Left Wing: 1
It should also be noted that Jihadist terror attacks have almost as many victims as far right terror attacks because the former are just more efficient, but far right terror attacks are far more common. Check the graph in the article.
The fact that the far right candidate has been under a murder attempt by another far right loon is just the cherry on top.
Doesn't even count the OKC bombing, which would shoot up those numbers
