Or rather why do people care about Hamas at all? Their activities are contained in the Middle East, they aren't the West's problem, , they are mostly israel's problem and their main goal is to get Palestinian land back , so they are mostly Palestinian nationalists. Im not sure what is the problem with that exactly. The only people who should logically have a problem with hamas are israeli shills but even they should only really blame themselves because Netenyahu admitted that he helped to fund hamas.

I'm spazzing out because I'm fixating on your incorrect use of the term "over representation".
But sure, if you redefine terms to explicitly limit the scope of discussion to Antifa then you can better make your case to lay this all at White people's feet.
I didn't say all. I'm just not going to be un-nuanced and include normies as Leftists, when I'm always being accused of labeling everyone as Leftist.
Ok, but a large portion of normies are leftists and support leftists.
Almost no normies are Leftists. When we're talking about Progressives, Socialists, Communists, and Fabian Socialists, almost none are Leftists.
The only kind of Leftists that normies are are 'default Liberals'. Or basically "Keynsian Socialists because it's the single narrative I've heard from literally all influences in authority, and have never even pondered the concept of Liberalism divorced from Socialism, let alone Illiberal political views."
Ok, but they're still carrying water for the other varieties of leftist and providing that veneer of acceptability and I take umbrage with that.
