    “control the lives of people, not allowing them to disagree with them” - at least in my opinion.

    The right uses political and actual violence to prevent people from being themselves. That’s not a disagreement. That’s actual fascism.

      While I don’t agree with the right’s current direction - I’m talking about Switzerland/Germany, not America here - I have not seen a single incident where they use political and actual violence to get their point across - where I’ve seen that a lot from the left.

        Right wing violence is all over the news the last three years in Germany.

        I do however see that Antifa in the EU seem to be a lot more militant than here in the U.S.

          All ‘right motivated violence’ I can find in Germany is single culprits - usually deranged people doing mass shootings. While that’s terrible, yes, that’s barely related to anything to do with the broader masses of people.

          If you have other sources, I’d love to see them
