This is horrific, straight up fascist terrorism. Only gonna get worse.
That's mental. I wonder if right wing terrorism will even be stopped.

Not by itself. At this point, the only way forward is by fighting back.
A couple of weeks ago a right wing nutjob planning to do a terrorist attack was killed during a police raid. This was in Belgium and heavy weapons were found in his house. It made me realize that we need to step up our game as the left, because the right is doing so as well. This is in a country where almost no one has weapons, so to see them arming themselves was a bit of a shock.
Was he ex-military by any chance? Otherwise I don't get how he obtained heavy weapons as a civilian, and managed to obfuscate them.
I tried looking for it but I can't find the reason for him having so many heavy weapons. They mentioned he was a member of a shooting range, so some might be legally owned (which you can still do), but it doesn't explain the dozens of weapons they found. So I don't know unfortunately. My city is the main drug port in Europe, and illegal weapons are big, so that might be the case.
Amazing how military-grade equipment is falling into the wrong hands this easily.
They are arming themselves.
So why aren't you?
The cost of everything related to guns is becoming increasingly prohibitive, with for example a single small box of ammunition costing up to a whole weeks worth of groceries. Along with that, all places to learn/practice skills are infested and crawling with these same types of right-wing delusional terrorists. I also don't know if I'd trust myself to own a weapon such as a gun due to my mental health, despite how much I might like to own one.

Damn, even places like the Socialist Rifle Association?
Adding onto ComradeSalad's points, they're 100% a last resort if you can't find some actual communists to shoot with. I was in a chapter with about 8 people 5 years or so ago and I was the only self-identified Marxist. Social democrats, anarchists, left-liberals. "Left unity" out the ass (unless you're an ML, good luck).
They've got a sex pest and ideological chaos problem. The SRA subreddit is evidence enough of their nonsense.

The shit?! What are they doing in a SOCIALIST GUN CLUB?! Why even call it a Socialist Rifle Association at that point?! I thought there already was a Liberal Gun Club, why don't they go there instead?
Sorry, I've never been to a SRA before (doesn't exist here), so I'm shocked to see SRA members not being S.
EDIT: Also what's with this "sex pest" problem?
All those people think they are the "real" socialists
