Those are largely domestic, though some have quiet foreign support. And there’s no law for designating domestic groups as terrorist. The FBI does a ton of work here though

The Trump admin infamously declared Antifa a domestic terrorist organization in September 2025.

Also wild that they're willing to just put "Anti-Fascist" in there as the enemy - if you're anti-anti-fascist, that's kind of hiding in plain sight, as if they weren't already. Simply staggering to think that in such a short space of time a country can head off the rails quite so much, but it should be instructional - whenever you look at history, the collapse often happens slowly - and then all at once...

Yes, and in this case it's because idiots decided anyone they disagreed with was a fascist, and hey, guess what? It's fine to hit a fascist with a wrench, so let's do it. The degradation of real terms such as "fascist", "racist", "misogynist", or even "rape" means, as predicted, that no one trusts the use of them any more. They only work with the full force that they should carry if they are used correctly.

  Fascism : a populist political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual, that is associated with a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, and that is characterized by severe economic and social regimentation and by forcible suppression of opposition
I fail to see how the term is being misused when applied to the current administration.

> It's wild that we've hit a point where the existence of Right-Wing Extremists is simply denied. It's not denied; it's just that anyone vaguely right wing who kills is classified as a right wing terror attack. Right wing terror is constantly talked about, so it may appear bigger than it is. Whereas in terms of groups or common causes, the three listed are much bigger. Why is it healthcare CEOs, presidents and campus…

"it may appear bigger than it is" Except that it's by far the largest in the US based on the data.

Who have they assassinated in the last 10 years?

We have leftwing examples from Charlie Kirk for speech to the live-streamed execution of Antonio Mays Jr for joyriding on leftwing militia turf.

OK, let's go 30 years back and see how many terror attacks, worldwide, were from islamists: it's something like 95% of all terror attacks. Then we take all the drug related killings (in which drug users have a responsibility btw: I don't care if they should be legal or not, they're not and you're evil if you support in a…

30 years ago - in the mid-1990s - 100% of all terror attacks were carried out by white Christians, often by groups like the Irish Republicans.

Can you give an example of even one "islamist" attack from that time period?

lol. In case you didn’t notice, dissent is terrorism, failure to kiss the ring is treason, and if you want to play in the US market there are some cryptocurrency purchases you might want to do, as a hedge against unfavorable tariffs. Also, for only 100KUSD you can join the official US insider trading chat. I wish any of this was an exaggeration.

I wonder if there are Americans on hn who already self censor their criticism of the Trump regime because they're scared of reprisals.

Trump can suck a fart out of my butt.

Yes, and Isis is a bunch of independent cells held together by an ideology too.

So is Christianity and the GOP. What's your point?

Antifacist, styled "antifa," and Republican are adjectives like Christian. Christianity and the GOP are massive, documented networks with representatives and hierarchies.

“legacy” islamist terrorists? as if a violent ideology that’s been around for centuries simply gets deprecated like IE6? if only it were that easy.

Interesting how Jewish terrorists aren't mentioned, even though Israel has a long and storied history of engaging in terrorism. I guess it's such a legacy that it's not even brought up anymore?

Yes, anyone who has been paying attention knows that this administration has been designating people who disagree with them politically or socially, or in some cases groups like antifa that don't really exist, as terrorist groups. This substantially escalated with nspm7 as reported by Ken Klippenstein.

Antifa doesn't really exist? Please explain people waving antifa flags, wearing antifa badges / clothing, putting antifa in their social media profiles? With this kind of logic, no terrorist group really exists.

That last sentence is a straight-up threat.
