GobbledygookYou use the term FACTS, but don't present any. What you did was link to a Washington Times article that made assertions (that you apparently assumed were FACTS), but this article doesn't link to any FACTS. I looked thru it, and they obviously wrote it on the assumption that folks would just take their word for the claims they make. But they present ZERO EVIDENCE for the assertions they make...
Meanwhile, mac "liked" your post, but his presentation of facts was a WSJ OPINION. Full disclosure, I wasn't able to read the actual WSJ Editorial commentary, and maybe they actually cited sources.

Meanwhile Plax clearly linked to the actual study which disputes both of your claims and was published in 2020. So while Plax posted opinion, as did both of you Plax provided evidence while both of you basically linked to other OPINION pieces...

"German argued that the impulse to paint both sides of the political spectrum with the same brush, despite the fact that only the far right is actively killing people, is among the most dangerous features of modern American law enforcement. In his review of the documents produced in response to the recent protests, German said purported “threats” from antifa were routinely overblown, often framed vandalism as terrorism and were typically absent of concrete evidence of serious criminal activity.
And this passage points out why it's dangerous for the people on this board who get their NEWS from Facebook (then post it here). And why these stories gain traction...
“It’s chatter, it’s ‘intelligence reporting suggests,’” he said. On June 2, for example, the Department of Homeland Security circulated a tweet to law enforcement agencies across the country reporting that antifa was stashing bricks to “fuel protests.” The intelligence made its way to a law enforcement fusion center in Main
