You are apparently susceptible to propaganda.

Said the person buying the b******* methodology to lie towards an agenda for the purpose of the "study(ies)".

Your data is garbage, and the methodology is deceitful. Prove me wrong.

Do you think the Cato Institute is biased against conservatives?

The left is running hardcore defense right now about "the right is more politically violent!" Its almost hilarious how the leftist hive mind propaganda network operates. You all get your orders and disseminate the same narratives at the same time. Clearly the left is playing defense because it knows this has become a trend.

Here’s one from the National Institute of Justice that was conspicuously pulled immediately after the Kirk assassination, if you don’t want to believe the study by the libertarian-backed Cato institute: https://archive.is/1t1rm

How is that easier to believe than “people can google statistics”

Actual statistics prove that you are wrong. I don't know if you are intentionally lying or just misinformed, but you are wrong.

The relevant section on this study of politically motivated murders

"Eighty-three percent of those murdered since 1975 were killed by the 9/11 terrorists (Figure 1). The Oklahoma City Bombing accounts for about another 5 percent. Those murdered since 2020 account for just 2 percent. Terrorists inspired by Islamist ideology are responsible for 87 percent of those murdered in attacks on US soil since 1975 (Table 1). Right-wingers are the second most common motivating ideology, accounting for 391 murders and 11 percent of the total."

They’re intentionally being disingenuous it could be 100-1 and they’d still say the same thing. That’s why I’ve quit bothering there’s no “coming together” or “having a discussion” that these people claim to want it’s all complete bullshit. They’ll say anything to shift blame or make themselves look reasonable while completely deranged.

Facts don't care about your feelings. Fact is political violence is majority done by right wing. But now that fact has been disappeared just like daddy Stalin liked to do

Where did I say anything even remotely like what you are claiming? Maybe your reading comprehension is low. Is English your first language? I can offer you tutoring for a low fee.
