Both parties are not the same.

Left-wing rage also gave us the Jacobin Terror and the Russian Revolution, so let’s not get cocky. Left-wing activism has definitely produced better results than right-wing activism (I mean, what did that ever get us – immigration restrictions, union-busting, and the end of desegregation efforts?), but rage on either side can be dangerous and destructive.

Good rule of thumb: if you find yourself killing a lot of people who aren’t actively trying to kill you, you’re probably doing something wrong.
