I think all parties should be banned to start. Here is the issue in America we let the two party system run our country and this is a huge issue. If we did not have any parties we would not be as divided if divided at all. Extremist are groups of people who are extreme and you can see most of them doing bad things. Trumps supporters have been seen as extremist for breaking into the capitol building and it is just not okay to allow this. If you can not handle that extremist are not an OKAY group of people fine so be it. I can admit that "Antifa" has been classified as an extremists group and that is factual they are. Extremist do things that we just have to stop allowing in America it is fine to protest as BLM did but it isn't ok to destroy, loot, burn buildings, or break into buildings things Trump supporters and ANTIFA did. You can not use free speech as an argument as to why they should not be banned. "Free speech does not exists in a vacuum. It can be restrained specifically in this case on grounds of harm" (https://debatewise.org/2645-extremist-political-parties-banning-of/#yes1). As I said earlier most extremist groups are seen as harmful.
