this is the perfect response to protests where a handful are violent and destructive. not spraying crowds with pepper spray so Trump can hold a bible upside-down for a photo.

Right wingers always pretend like left wingers want violence to occur at protests. Lock up the people who commit crimes, leave everyone else alone

There is absolutely a small faction of leftists who do fetishize political violence. You see them all over Lemmy.

Out of all of the domestic terrorism that occurred in 2022 how much was committed by the right wing versus the left?

100% by the right. Every single instance.

Taking about violence is not the same as committing violence.

You guys will literally find one single violent liberal and then say that it is "both sides"

Get real, look at the numbers. Go over to truth social and see what they are saying. One guy literally just got arrested for announcing his plans to kill Kamala Harris.

If someone is committing violence against you you have the full justification to be violent back. That is self defense, that will never apologize for it.

violence against who?

edit: there's a big difference between advocating for violence on people surrounded by security personel who have personally ordered deaths of thousands of people (eg Netanyahu, Putin) vs some random person who happens to be a minority.
