Why do conservatives project onto others traits they themselves possess?

Philosophy behind using violence involves "You are going to listen to me, or I'm going to make you listen". It also involves "the only way you'll get the point is if you're afraid of injury or some other byproduct of violence".

And there are right wingers resorting to violence.

Open a history book. Riots are nothing new, nor are they confined to the left.

Godless Socialist/Communists believe that if you don't agree with them, you must be terminated. This is why the Nationalist Socialists ad Communists killed over 100 million people last century.

Why liberals always resort to violence/riots/chaos?
The G-20 rioters are anti-globalist anarchists.

Who is the anti-globalist in-chief these days

Oh, that's right, its Donald Trump and his supporters.

Political Extremists from anarchist to the far right and hard left often cause civil disturbance.

This is because they are never going to win an election or gain much power through democratic means, as most people reject their views.

They therefore take to attacking the police and smashing up city areas and shops in frustration.

That is all true,

G20 protestors are anti-globalist, but they are mostly liberal, conservatives can be anti-globalist too of course but the protestors are liberals.

Trump did run on anti-globalism, nationalism, America first, etc etc. Although Trump isn't a die hard conservative, most die hard conservatives are anti-globalism.

So to me it seems like there is anti-globalist on both sides, liberal and conservative. Both it is the liberal politicians who push for globalism.

Most of the 'free trade' agreements were GOP babies, including NAFTA, which was signed by Clinton, but invented and insisted by the GOP. They exist to boost corporate profits, so lets not pretend only liberals are pushing for such things. Its is ironic and hypocritical they insist on globalism, and then blame every negative aspect of their own creation on liberals.
