Office of judge presiding over Trump’s New York trial bombarded with threats
The office of the New York judge overseeing Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial has been bombarded with death threats and antisemitic abuse following the former president’s online attacks.
Judge Arthur Engoron and his clerk, Allison Greenfield, are said to have received hundreds of threatening, harassing and disparaging messages via telephone and social media.
Attorneys for the New York state court system made the case for the imposition of gag orders on Trump, citing “serious and credible” threats against Engoron and Greenfield.
Transcribed voicemail messages, disclosed in court filings, revealed the extent of the abuse directed at the pair. Alongside racist and sexist attacks the messages contain several death threats. “I mean, honestly, you should be assassinated,” said one. “You should be killed. You should be not assassin executed [sic]. You should be executed.”
Why does “the right” think it’s good to send death threats.
Does “the left” do death threats?
Sometimes, but it's not as widespread. Everyone is capable of things like that.
And the left generally disavows people who threaten or commit acts of violence. For example, a few years back a Bernie Sanders supporter went to a Congressional baseball game and opened fire on Republicans. Bernie quickly disavowed this person and said that he didn't stand for violence at all.
The right, meanwhile, celebrates violence. Just look at how they've treated the January 6th insurrectionists. They regard them as heroes and patriots of the highest order for trying to kill members of Congress. Even Republicans who were present and feared for their lives that day have claimed that these people are "political prisoners" and "they did nothing wrong."

Low intelligence and impulse control
The majority of what would constitute the “far left” - those openly conducting or advocating political violence - were largely taken out by the FBI in COINTELPRO. Note that they also went after peaceful protestors and student groups, and to this day groups like ALF and ELF are considered terrorist groups.
Left doesn't need to.
