Could be.
Depends on your definition of "Terrorist Attacks".
I didn't see too many white supremacists burning down cities this summer.
Just sayin'

1SG (Join to see) - The DHS also has stated that the biggest domestic terror threat is white supremacy. This report confirms what the Department of Homeland Security has already stated.

"The DHS’s “Homeland Threat Assessment” found that White supremacy extremism accounted for more fatal attacks in the U.S. than any other domestic violent extremist group since 2018, with eight of the 16 violent reported from 2018 through 2019. It also caused the majority of related deaths, with 39 of the 48, the report states."

"White supremacist extremists, or WSEs, have consistently remained prominent among domestic extremist groups, while spikes in other forms of DVE typically depend on social or political issues at the time, the report states."

"The threat analysis also identifies anti-government or anti-authority violent extremism as a factor that motivates domestic terrorism."

"“These violent extremists, sometimes influenced by anarchist ideology, have been associated with multiple plots and attacks, which included a significant uptick in violence against law enforcement and government symbols in 2020,” the report states. “Anti-government and/or anti-authority violent extremists are likely to be emboldened by a perceived success exploiting otherwise peaceful protest movements and concealing violent tactics.”"

Also, studies are showing that much of that violence that comes from protests is perpetrated by people who have nothing to do with the protests. Many instance there are white supremacists pretending to be "anarchists" or "antifa" to try to de-legitimize the peaceful protests.

SFC Kelly Fuerhoff - I see that statistic skewing strongly the other way once Antifa gets defined as a domestic terrorist group - which it surely is.
Nevertheless, it wasn't white supremacists burning down Minneapolis, Seattle, Portland, Berkeley, New York...
And that was despite numerous attempts by media organizations to say that what we saw (in my case, firsthand) wasn't what we saw; it was actually Hawaiian shirt wearing "Boogaloo Boys" or some such nonsense.

Yeah how many cities did those dang far right groups take over this year, and they kept trying to burn down parts of cities, and looted, and terrorized, and assailed and battered people for failing to conform to group think...yeah they are such a huge problem. They are using psychological ops too running around screaming BLM, say there name, kill the pigs all to make you think it's not them and throwing the blame to other peaceful groups.
Yeah definitely definitely those bad whities.
