The whole "Replacement Theory" fairy tale is now official Repub Party policy...and is pushed by both the Repub pols and it's complicit hate-filled far-right media sphere...
And as a result, you have idiots like the Dilbert author who rants that "Whites should stay the hell away from Black people"...and at the other end of the scale, murderers like this who use an AR15 to show vent their hate...
The GOP is now the party of the KKK....

How can it be described as "extremist" when the number one personality on the number one news network in the good 'ol USA promotes it?

Thanks Trump. And why do Tucker people obsess over Chicago so much? They just have scores to settle and it's bad people vs bad people basically in dark allies. Nothing to do with innocents at a Walmart or a church. It's not Trump political violence, but there is a plague of guns on the streets due to Trump open gun laws and open state borders. Patrick Crusius was told by Trump to attack non whites at a Walmart. Dylan Roof is also a Trump person. Among others. Chicago has nothing to do with politics like what Trump is doing. Proud Boys are Trump people.
US President Donald Trump suggested shooting migrants in the legs to slow them down
(News source)
Proof that Trump is causing this violence.

Right wing extremists need not only be white supremacists. Even Islamic terrorists can be categorized as right wing extremists, since they believe their ideology to be supreme.

What on earth is this writer saying? Totally incoherent.

This guy should have gotten the death penalty.
If we don't have the death penalty for this goober.....

When you factor in that more and more blue-collar Americans are voting Republican, especially in rural areas, these people cannot be trusted to bring the Dems over the finish line, so that thought come up more and more when you think about the open borders and allowing millions of illegals to just come in without papers, documents or even vaccine papers, on its face that is exactly what it is once you analyze it.
That's his opinion, I thought that in the US free speech is cherished, or is that only when it comes to minorities if Blacks say "stay away from whites" do you think we would have this discussion? Absolutely not.
If that were the case, there would be more than 100 people murdered every hour on the hour.
No, they didn't create the Great Society or implemented policies that destroyed the black family unit, which was done by the Democrat party.

"The threat of domestic terrorism remains high in the United States – especially the danger posed by white power extremists, many of whom believe white people are being “replaced” by people of color."
I hope he lives a very long life rotting in prison.

It is, but people are, and should be, judged on what they say.
Do you agree with him?

I saw his video. It can still be seen. He hasn't been arrested. So his freedom of speech is indeed being cherished.

Crusius legally purchased a GP WASR-10 semiautomatic rifle and 1,000 rounds of hollow-point ammunition online in June 2019.
Says everything about the lack of gun laws and what can happen.

Clearly.
What I find very lame is people saying ‘what about free speech?’ when someone is criticised for the content of their free speech.
I don’t think that the right to freedom of speech came with the right not to be ridiculed for the content of that speech.
I’ll be happy to be corrected here.

What the author is saying is that these murderers are not the lone wolves they are portrayed as by the press, law enforcement and by most politicians. Rather they are part of a broader movement that is deliberately leaderless and where members are encouraged to act singly or in small groups as a means to avoid government scrutiny. That movement needs to be understood for what it is and confronted. Right now we just shrug our collective shoulders and say, oh it was just one guy acting out. No, it is not just one guy, it is bigger than that.
Desert Tortoise
Why does he obsess about tanning is balls? Why does he obsess about anything? Money. He makes a lot of money saying the things he does. It's all a show and he's nothing more than a thinly educated showman.

Is this a serious question? Well, here is the answer.
Because the number one news network in the US doesn't promote terrorism, and to the contrary, is very outspoken against terrorism, such as that which poses a threat at the US' porous border.

And what about the violent extremists in the community, sizeable section of the community is all but extremely violent, since majority of this violence is internally focused so it's fine for the narrative.
