The whack jobs on the left are a vanishing minority, so if you're pretending they're equivalent to the right wing who actually attempted a fucking coup and want to do another one, you're either disingenuous or an idiot.
I've seen far more calls from the left for actual violence since the rise of trump than probably combined the rest of my life. I agree the right wing is currently more violent, but the claim that they are vanishing, rather than rising, doesn't match up with the reality I've experienced. Especially surprising to claim it here on Lemmy where I see it most.
How many right wing people do you hang out with?
Lemmy is not reality.
