Radicals View On Violence

In our society, we not only have the Left and Right political viewpoints. However, we also have the Radical Left and The Radical Right. I will be reviewing their similarities in this essay, and what both points of view believe. The Radical Left and Radical Right both view violence as an act of insurrection. People on the Radical Left and Radical Right believe that violence is the result of too much control in the government. Both sides also believe that acts of violence is an act of rebellion against the government by people who have no power.


Even though the Radical Left and the Radical Right agree with those viewpoints, they disagree on others. How they differ in their views on violence is that while the Radical Left believes that a shifting in political institutions are necessary, the Radical Right believe that society should be independent from the control of the government. While the Radical Left believes that the Capitalist agenda should be shut down, the Radical Right believe that society should have the right to bear fire-arms. Also, the Radical Right believe that laws such as the Welfare System and banning prayer in schools disables individuals from relying on themselves and running to the government for help. However, the Radical Left believes that we need a economic and political system which is not controlled by wealthy individuals.


In conclusion, both the Radical Left and Right agree and disagree on the solutions to violence. We can also hope that violence will decrease over time.
