    The far right wants people to die because they are not in the in-group.

    And your evidence for this is?

      it’s literally in the intro summary on wikipedia:

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-right_politics

      Key to the far-right worldview is the notion of societal purity, often invoking ideas of a homogeneous “national” or “ethnic” community. This view generally promotes organicism, which perceives society as a unified, natural entity under threat from diversity or modern pluralism. Far-right movements frequently target perceived threats to their idealized community, whether ethnic, religious, or cultural, leading to anti-immigrant sentiments, welfare chauvinism, and, in extreme cases, political violence or oppression.

      Far-right politics have led to oppression, political violence, forced assimilation, ethnic cleansing, and genocide against groups of people based on their supposed inferiority or their perceived threat to the native ethnic group, nation, state, national religion, dominant culture, or conservative social institutions.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-left_politics

        Historically, violence has been widely accepted by the far-left as a means to enact societal change.[262] The anti-authoritarian far-left may consider violence justified in combatting repressive forces.[73] Revolutionary far-left groups might organise themselves into underground movements or carry out violent insurgencies. Insurgencies are only viable in developing nations where the state is not capable of defeating the group.[263] As support for the far-left decreases, violent groups shift their focus from attacks against the state to attacks for survival, such as freeing its members from prison.[201] Leon Trotsky rejected the use of violence, saying it does not benefit the working class like other measures such as striking.

          Pol Pot is your choice of historical figures to try to call out leftist violence? Are you playing dumb, or are you genuinely that fucking stupid?

          Also, are you saying it’s wrong to use violence to fight back against violent authoritarian regimes? Is it ok for them to use violence and it’s only wrong when leftists use violence?

      They are arresting, caging, deporting anyone not in their in-group and protesting with slogans such as “Kill ‘em all. Let god sort them out.”

      Maybe open your fucking eyes.
