What makes the most recent and highest profile example somehow invalid just because it’s been turned into a meme? Trump also got shot and there was cheering too. Steve Scalise. OP says nothing about quantity, just the celebration of people dying. Why argue with such an obviously true statement?

because quantity does actually matter when we are talking about the intensity of an issue. if the most recent example for one issue was months ago, comparing to an issue where there are like, countless examples every day (ICE brutalizes people constantly, and folks, including the govt, cheer it on. Incessantly) Yeah one is a bigger problem than the other

Not to mention the folks celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk are like, a fringe of leftists and edgy teenagers the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES celebrates attacks on people he perceives to be enemies, which includes liberals

Don’t you think if conservatives were interfering with law enforcement they too would be affected at higher numbers? And nowhere until rn did “intensity of an issue” come up. OP brought up a concept with the inference it was a one-sided problem. It’s not

Plus these cases are apples and oranges. You’re comparing someone who put themselves in between federal officers with their car and people who were: Talking at a college campus, practicing on a baseball field, and holding a campaign rally

see exactly. Your response is that the shit happening to folks on the left is justified - it’s not a two-sided issue. one side is being literally persecuted by the state, with the govt serving as a propaganda arm claiming it’s justified. The “other side” is a bunch of edgelords who made up a rhyme. not comparable

I’m talking about Renee good. I’m also talking about the one year old American citizen child who was bruised by ice this week. I’m also talking about the American citizen child with cancer who was deported bc her mom was undocumented. I’m also talking about the inhumane conditions in US facilities. I’m also talking about CECOT

Or actually, hear me out: It’s one side where there’s even a possibility of debate as to whether what happened was a result of actions on the scene. Whereas the other 3 are undisputedly assassinations or attempts at such. Apples and oranges. It’s a straight up lie to say there isn’t widespread cheering and justifying for violence on both sides. You can twist it all you like to fit your specific criteria but it’d be a lie.

was the murder of Renee good an “assassination attempt”, in your mind

bc I would like to know why you even brought up Charlie Kirk if you don’t think my examples are comparable

By the definition of the word "assassination" no. But murder or manslaughter, yeah most likely. I brought it up because the only thing being discussed was a member of a political party's death being celebrated. Which we literally see happen by both groups. So to say it's only a problem with one group is a lie. Or at best just untrue

Republicans celebrated the assassinations of two Minnesota state reps.

There was not celebration. They denied it being right on left violence and claimed it was left on left. That’s not celebrating

Sitting republican congressman joked about it and the president refused to even acknowledge it as a tragedy

The entire political movement of the right largely centers around simply owning the libs. Looks at trumps cultural policies. Look at his rhetoric. No elected democrats have ever centered their policing around giving a middle finger to the right

Since day 1 of Trump’s first term that’s literally been the central goal of the left; to oppose and demonize everything Trump does and says. And the left has every right to do so, but not to pretend like only the right does it

Even if this is true, no elected democrats have EVER insinuated or joked that republicans should be killed, or joked about conservatives who have been attacked/killed. Trump says he hates his enemies and that they deserve the worst. Trump ran on vengeance towards his political enemies and has needlessly hurt millions by revoking funding or executive orders.

There’s opposing someone’s policies and citing historical examples to evaluate those policies, and theres being ruthless and hateful
