1. Sort of a terrible article, honestly.

It goes goes to pains to say that both sides are equally capable or likely to harbour extremists that are possible of violence, and then goes through naming a bunch of exclusively right-wing groups that are either white supremacist or incels, and all right-wing. I'm getting so sick of media trying to bend over backwards to try and "balance" the coverage by saying "Oh yeah, those lefties are dangerous, too!!" when white male right wing extremism has been the biggest cause of terrorist violence. The Quebec Mosque shooter sure wasn't a leftist, I'll tell you that.
