If this was Antifa people would go crazy and bang on about how the left is violent & thuggish and how they are the "real fascists".https://twitter.com/KrisGriffiths/status/1005505526380335105 …

Do you not find people are critical of far-right thugs?

Some are obviously but I sense there is often a greater intensity among some in the criticism when it's far leftists that do it because for them the issue is not political violence but just hating the left whatever chance they get.

I'm much more dismayed when the left do it. But it's equally scary coming from both sides. (Perhaps more so from the right.)

I think it's more scary from the right and I tend to hear much more condemnation of the right but this might be because I am on the left and more of my connections are.

I don't like it when the Black Bloc mindlessly destroy and burn stuff because there is no political content to it and is a sure way of alienating people off from you but I just wish there would some consistency.

I think there is at least consistency in the inconsistency of people noticing thuggish behaviour when the other side does it! But I think it would work better if people would focus on the thugs on their own side most because they are the ones who can marginalise them.
