Part 6/9:
One troubling issue is the use of extremist labels that can foment division and violence. An example cited is a 2019 deleted tweet from the ADL that labeled Turning Point USA as a right-wing group linked to extremism and bigotry. Critics argue such rhetoric can incite violence, referencing the alleged assassination attempt on Charlie Kirk, which was falsely linked to accusations of racism and bigotry. The danger lies in how such narratives can be weaponized to discredit or threaten political opponents.
