...in other words, yes there may be a very small militant left minority, but let's remember that the only thing that's really connecting those people (plus the many more who aren't on the far-left and are still vocally anti-Nazi) and driving them to take action is their shared opposition to the real life actual Nazis in America right now. You can't just say "but Stalin!" because there are Nazis involved and you want to prove that the left have never been as violent in history ever.
You can't say "everything on the Left is lovely, except... when the NAZIS!" either.

And hey, I'm not sticking up for these idiots on the right. Just trying to stop people imagining that anyone on the Left is a hero and nothing else, ever.
