      There have been multiple mass casualty events over the past several years committed by people who claimed inspiration by Islamic radicalism. Most liberals/leftists recognize the folly of using these incidents to justify more stringent government regulation of political speech.

      However, when mass casualty events are committed by people who claim inspiration by white nationalism, liberal/left apprehension about government regulation (and civil liberties more generally) often seems to go out the window. And they get really mad when you point this out.

      I'm referring specifically to incidents carried out in the United States, btw. Situation is obviously different elsewhere.

          This is just not an accurate representation of leftist approaches to counterterror and I don't know what good polarizing people and trying to make their beliefs static and moralized can *possibly* do right now.

          It's as if they believe a given principle is only valid if the context in which it is applied supports their interests. 🤔

          Some Canadian Muslims are calling for extreme measures to censor and deplatform anything seen as white supremacy. I can't find any of these people caming out in opposition to Muslim bombers or demanded a crackdown on Islamic extremism online. Seems a staggering double standard

          I see your point but from my understanding social media companies have devoted a lot of resources to (mostly) snuffing out violent Islamic extremism on their platforms. Problem is its generally not in our own language and doesnt affect the communities we are familiar with....

          ...white nationalist content is generally in a language and culture we understand, and there is a lot of overlap between the words and concepts potentially violent white supremacists use and a large portion of the "conservative" or "nationalist" movement and media in this country

          I see where you’re coming from but I think it is a fake equivalency just because white nationalist dog whistles aren’t the same as people practicing a religion if republicans weren’t scapegoating and if most attacks weren’t perpetrated by white nationalists then I’d agree more

          Name the civil liberties that liberals want to restrict in light of the rise of white nationalist terrorism? Gun control? They’ve been calling for that long before this spike in WN attacks. They also aren’t specially targeting white people like the president has done w/ Muslims.
