Funny how it only focuses on political violence from the left. I mean, yeah the government is completely owned by the right at the moment, but it seems odd to completely ignore the other side

I think it's meant to be an internal debate about the left's tactics. It's not meant to ignore or minimize very real right-wing violence.
