    Except the right is a lot more serious about it and much more willing to back it up with violence.

      eh, the large number of mass shootings in America lately tell a different story with an unusually high number of perpetrators being trans people.

                Okay, glad you shared with all of us your view.

                You’re free to have it, and everyone else is free to criticize it. You’re horrendously biased, that’s why you’re focusing on the statistically insignificant number of trans people who commit murder while ignoring the overwhelming majority of people who do that are white and right-win.

                Even if you’re not a troll, you are not arguing in good faith. You’re supporting an agenda and ignoring facts that go against it.

                    Because even after adjusting for their portion of the populace, white right-wing males still commit exponentially more murders.

                  False take. Calling anyone who is white and male, “right-wring” is sort of the go-to for transactivists and their often louder “allies.” But it’s always the transtactic that when faced with a particularly damning fact or allegation, you must attempt to deflect it with all sorts of whataboutisms, and when that fails, to simply make elephants into flies and handwave it away like it was never really a big deal. Look, you are probably pretty young, liberal minded and in college. Virtue signaling the way a good woke academic indoctrination mill wants you to. But until you put your thinking cap on, you are not going to see or think clearly. Especially if your defacto response to any kind of alarming information is to pick a side, or dig your heels in even further. But also, villifying people as must belonging to some conservative or Christian faction because they are the only ones who could possibly be opposed to the evils being perpetuated is sort of laughable and shows how disconnected you are from reality. I don’t need to be a conservative Christian to agree that mutilating children is wrong.

                    No, it’s completely true based on the manifestos and social media profiles of the killers.

                    They’re proud to tout their neo-nazi rhetoric, and the neo-nazis are happy to accept it.

      Lol left has been doing that, so let’s not pretend left is pure and innocent in terms of violence.

        Let’s go 1:1 left and right violence. I’ll go first, Dylan Roof, 2015, killed 9 and injured 1. Motivation: white supremacy/neo-nazi ideology.

        Your turn.

        Never said the left was pure and innocent, just that the right tends to be more violent.

              Stop being such a snowflake and learn to take some criticism on your chin.

              Any real man wouldn’t care what other people think of him because he’s secure in his position. Are you one of them? Or are you one of the boys complaining about voting on a digital platform?
