@Malachi also I don’t understand the second question, can you elaborate?

Here's some delivery on the empirical evidence I promised. Here's a key plot for discussion:

Full report from the US Senate: https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Testimony-Braniff-2019-09-25.pdf

Is it a democratic ideology to support violence in the streets? Jacksonville and Fort Worth have seen violence but are staunch Republican.

You guys are claiming an ideological lean, but not backing it with actual ideology.

Ive read the GTD. The categories for "Right" are ambiguous at best. Look closer at hat data. Just because a guy posts on reddit gets lumped into "incel" which is right wing?

Perhaps those cities are "run by dems" because they have major schools. We all know that smart people are Democrats.

joking slightly...

@drenath Isn't that true for leftists too though?

@Malachi jacksonville and fort worth are a spit in the bucket as far as daily unreset goes Chicago takes the cake

Jokes are very genuine

if you don't like the term leftist @Katelyn let's drop far right or right wing

this is not recent data either

I don't have a problem with the word leftist.

from this year alone

Bruce. Again, these are also larger cities with other problems.

Ok, cite some empirical evidenece. @brucebruce

@Malachi no disagreement

@Katelyn I didn't find it particularly unfair to the other side. But you're welcome to disagree.

Do you think that it matters that the left doesn't really have organized groups gathering weapons in a coordinated way like the right does?

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.
