In order to back claims (from Trmp) that the left is a violent threat, the DOW (formerly the DOJ) has quietly removed all information regarding right-wing violence and statistics.

Exactly. It only gains legitimacy by frequent repetition. No need to use their stupid names

There is a very marked difference between levels left wing and right wing violence. Spoiler: right wing rates of violence and death are much higher. Meanwhile there was no difference between right wing and islamist levels of violence, although islamist caused the highest rate of fatalities.
