      Some conservatives on Twitter are on a whataboutism kick about Farrakhan. No doubt: all anti-semitism is horrible. But that version (or anything on the ~left) isn't breeding a violent movement that's killed more Americans than ISIS, and isn't an excuse to ignore the one that is.https://twitter.com/peterwsinger/status/1056532234155503616 …

      However, the data shows that, despite the "both sides" mantra, in killing our fellow Americans, violent right wing extremism is well ahead (data before the attacks: 71% of the deaths caused vs 3% by left wing, 26% jihadi; 17 to 1 ratio in attacks overall https://www.defenseone.com/threats/2018/02/national-security-pros-its-time-talk-about-right-wing-extremism/146319/ …

      Whataboutism in politics and both-sideism in mass media are poison to understanding, sanity and healthy conversation. It's rare that anything is completely one-sided (there is fake news grifters on the left, for example) but a lot of things aren't equally balanced. Just aren't.
