I was a little tongue and cheek, but also serious. No left-wing violence is generally labelled as such... If it's a left-wing anti-govt group, still gets labelled as right-wing violence, for example, because anti-govt always labelled as right-wing. All the Floyd riots, none of it ever labelled as left-wing violence.

Yes it was, by the right (including the current administration.) People on the right (including plenty here on HN) literally called BLM a "violent Marxist terrorist organization" that "burned entire cities to the ground."
ICE protests are called "violent leftist extremism." Anyone ICE shoots dead was a violent leftist terrorist all along. Protesting Israel is violent leftist antisemitism. Making jokes about Charlie Kirk only shows how bloodthirsty and violent the left is. Every single US mass shooting is linked to "stochastic leftist violence" regardless of the shooter's actual politics.
