haha

I'm going to stop calling the Proud Boys right wing. As I am sure that the negative aspects associated with them are not representational to the right wing as a whole.

people lump christian into right wing all the time as well

Believe it or not, the Proud Boys have some ideological statement that I agree with. Just as BLM has some statements that you fine folks likely agree with.

let me tell you, the proud boys are not well received by christians

But it looks like you're citing there is mostly vegans and eco-activists. Not exactly antifa terrorizing the streets.

Religion is generally a right wing position but yea it isn’t exclusively right wing

In fact, I don't see a single "left" organization listed there that isn't enviromental or vegan.

@Katelyn once again the data for 2020 is not over yet.

But you have no basis for your beliefs then.

i can give you all of the protests

@Katelyn regarding gathering and weapons, I don't see the presence of weapons themselves as violence.

burned buildings

and riots

from left wing advocates

10% of blm protests turn into riots

Ideologically, ISIS is a right wing movement. You guys cool with that nomenclature?

would you like me to just give you 6 months of articles?

and 95% of the riots this year are related to blm

@Malachi excellent point

I would be.

@drenath that table @brucebruce screenshotted though, shows entirely eco-activists and vegans. Do you think that those groups are equally dangerous as say, white supremacist groups listed there?

I just finished writing an ancient philosophy paper. so pardon me for asking a bunch of questions.

Before you attribute causes to sides, and sow further derision. I think it's bet to examine the stances for their merit.

@Katelyn I'm not going to make a claim either way

yeah well i just committed 578 lines of code this morning. let's not get the measuring stick out just yet @Malachi

🙂

Spray me with your bluster dear friend.

> nowhere close. the death toll from left-type riot activity is probably in the triple digits. right wing, one?
@drenath
it sems like you were making claims though.

It's different to categorize events that have occurred than to assess the lethality of groups that may or may not commit acts of violence moving forward.

@Katelyn Katelyn join voice?

and Kaizen

I’ll join after I finish class

@ThePangburn Do you think it's ever justified to relieved by someone's death, i.e. in cases where someone is doing something very bad and their death results in positive effects because they're no longer able to do bad things? One can prefer that those positive effects would have come about in some other way, but that doesn't change the fact tnat relief is a very sensible reaction to the end of something terrible. I'm not particularly interested in arguing whether or not Trump meets the standard of badness to relieved about his death - I'm curious if you think that it's possible to have that feeling in a way that isn't "morally bankrupt."

I'd stay but I have a trolley to catch 😂 😂

What’s this ‘cancel rent’ movement? 🧐🤨

the belief that rent is theft

I agree with Travis that anyone wishing for Trump’s death is morally bankrupt. Unfortunately, our government forces me to associate with you. I couldn’t disassociate if I tried
