I hate that I'm asking but what were the 'crazy things'?

Plane hijackings, bombings, kidnappings, assassinations, murders and generally doing shit that we haven't seen in quite a while (at least in Europe).

So yeah, calling anything in America or Europe "extreme left" these days is really an indication that person using those terms is a moron.

And in 2025, we have idiotic US "study" that considers mentally ill person that surrenders to police babbling nonsense as a "left wing terrorist attack".

Surreal.
