I believe that it is "technically" true but due to a few different factors:

1) the FBI is compiling the information from over a thousand different sources if I remember correctly, which is more than they did previously so that can inflate the raw numbers

2) they collect said information from sources such as the ACLU, SPLC, and others so not exactly an unbiased source of information

3) they often are going by the number of reports (which I believe are actually on the rise) not the number of proven hate crimes and we've seen numerous hoaxes of late

4) I believe they also include Muslim terrorism as right wing, which is ironic considering this is the only time they seem to actually look into the beliefs and notice that they clash with their own

All of this certainly can skew statistics drastically and no fact checkers will ever call him out on his claims.

The standard definition of racism and hate crime has changed dramatically to include as much as possible.

Real racism and hate crimes from white people are on a steady decline.

Well, that should make it easy for you to post the source material on how you've come to the conclusion that hate crimes perpetrated by the right are on the rise. Please post it, I'm interested.

Ok, can you find me a study that uses the FBI data to show a clear rise in hate crimes? This should be easy since you firmly believe it's true.

FBI data shows sharp rise in US hate crimes

Again, how bad are you at Google?

The article states the rise is largely due to an increase in anti-semitic attacks.

Why believe those are all carried out by right wing skinheads? Muslims and socialists have hated jews historically, as well.

Look at what is happening in france and england right now. The labour party is seeing MPs abandon it (7 did so today) because they believe the party is rank with anti-semtism. Their leader, jeremy corbyn, is an anti-semite.

In france, nearly 100% of the increase in anti-semitic attacks is from muslims.

They consider Muslim extremists as right wing. That’s why

You linked a news article, not the FBI report. Try again.

Not to mention the article makes zero mention of left or right wing bias.

In short your proof, as usual, is anything but.

The FBI says hate crimes reports were up about 17% in 2017

Do you have any info about how many were legit? There's new hate law legislation being passed every day. Do you think the expansion of those laws also plays into the increased number of reports?


If there is an increase in reports of alien landings, does that mean aliens are really landing?

To be fair, I asked for a link to some article making the claim using FBI data.

DING DING

The political party that is openly electing anti semites will gladly tell you that the jew haters are on the right.

The same FBI that changed the Pulse nightclub shooters transcript from Allah to God in order to make him seem like a right wing Christian?

Not only do they falsely claim Islamic terrorism is right wing, they also falsely claimed the Black lives matter cop killers were right wing.
