Far left

Far left antifa BLM-wiggers Gaige Grosskreutz, Anthony Michael Huber and Joseph „Jojo“ Donald (Don) Rosenbaum tried to kill Kyle Rittenhouse on 25 August 2020, but the young patriot defended himself succesfully, killing two and wounding one.

The term far left refers to ideologies and ideological movements perceived to be further to the left than the centrist left on the left-right spectrum.

Definition

The radical or extreme left may be used as a synonym or may be used to refer to an "extreme" subset of the far left. One criticism of such classifications is that the left-right spectrum is too simplistic and there being many very different "left-wing" ideologies outside of the "centrist" left. See also the article on Political spectrum. The term itself may be seen as negative, as implying extremism or abnormality. It is rarely used by the groups labelled as far left by outsiders.

Quotes

• "Let’s be clear here, the murder of Charlie Kirk is not an aberration, no more than the near murder of President Trump was. Violence is not an aberration, it’s at the heart of what the Left is. The Left is a terrorist movement. Period. The Left exists in two states. 1. In power. 2. In terrorism. That’s it. When the Left is in power, then it kills people legally, and when it’s out of power, it strives to take people by killing people ‘illegally’. Charlie Kirk was murdered by a Left that is not currently in power. If the Left were fully in power, it could have done so legally as it did to so many in Russia, China, Cuba, North Korea and across so much of Latin America. Charlie’s death, like Trump’s attempted assassination, reminds us of what the real stakes are. We are up against people who want to kill us. Not just Trump or Charlie Kirk. All of us who defy them." – Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center as well as an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism
