Unfortunately the problem with the right is they refuse to understand why the left acts the way it does, and then puts the dumbest shits from the left on their programs so that they can make it seem like we’re all a bunch of loonies. I don’t have the time right now to look into that video/transcript specifically, but realize that Fox News purposefully cultivates an uninformed and distorted view of complex issues.

I don’t need to understand someone’s philosophy behind using violence as a way to get your point across to know that is a fascist based ideology that makes zero sense and is for idiots who would rather use their fists than words. I do not deny however that Fox News cherrypicks certain incidents to support their agenda. I’m with you for the most part on Fox News. Especially Sean Hannity. I can’t stand the self-righteous, fact denying prick.

I simply find this is a recurring theme at major leftist universities to shut down discussion. The liberals I am most fond of are Sam Harris, Bill Maher, and Dave Rubin because they still stand up for free speech and blatantly will call out how idiotic much of the left has become. Sam Harris makes it clear that supporting Islam is inherently an attack on feminism, Maher consistently laughs at how politically correct and snowflakeish his leftist peers have become, and Dave Rubin has publicly said he is leaving the “left” because they longer correspond with classical liberal ideas about free speech and he constantly has on guests who he disagrees with on MANY topics but he has no problem discussing these issues without resorting to just yelling “White privilege! Bullshit! You racist bigot!”.
