A huge understatement. One of the other articles on this topic recently put it at something like 95%+ right-wing violence. (That article made a weird artificial distinction breaking Muslim violence out into a separate category to make right-wing violence look like a smaller number, but obviously there's no real difference between that and christofascists other than their team mascot.)
