How is it prejudiced? All you've done is traded the word you're using.

That's not how the burden of proof works. You made the claim that it was racist. You have the burden to prove that it is racist. I have no burden to prove it isn't.

You can't just shift the burden of proof onto me, it is a fallacy:

Jack: I have tiny, invisible unicorns living in my anus.

Nick: How do you figure?

Jack: Can you prove that I don't?

Nick: No.

Jack: Then I do.

How?

And?

So because I dont censor it, that must mean I agree with it?

Not even close to what I am saying.

What I am actually saying:

1. You are applying a double standard

2. You are failing to keep this place civil

And no I would never fit into the democrats. I’m neither woke nor a racist.

That is why so many Democrats are in prison compared to Republicans.

Democrats support illegal immigration. It’s not shocking since democrats love lawlessness.

As I’ve said many times, democrats. (Liberals) are racist.

https://lemm.ee/comment/8520157

That’s democrats who want the racial and gender caste system.

https://lemm.ee/comment/8513465

That is because Democrats love to spend money they don’t have.

It is well known the Nazis and Democrats are well connected. Two peas in a pod.

https://lemm.ee/comment/8405309

Democrats are still racist as they’ve always been.

This is just the past month alone, and just one user. Admittedly, 90% of these kinds of statements come from winter. But every single one, not a peep out of the mods saying "hey, don't say that, democrats are not a monoloth".

The exact one about democrats being violent must have been from a while ago. And tbh I don't care enough to go digging for it. My point has been made.

Wow you straight up admitted you were cherypicking. You have no argument so I'll move on.

Also it's odd that you're complaining that I'm grouping republicans together (for a post/article you guys agree with and support), but when someone comes along and says "dEMocRatS aRe VIoLenT" you're silent. What a double standard.

Saying “Gun violence” instead of “Violence” is dog whistling that you care more about disarming people than saving lives.

I'm saying gun violence because that's the topic. Getting upset over this wording is like getting upset somebody calls a ride on a plane "air travel" instead of "travel". That's the category of the subject being discussed.

That aside, yes, most political violence world wide is right wing violence. This is mainly due to Islamic terrorism, which is right wing. Note that is not American right wing.

Even if you're just limiting to domestic terrorism, right wing terrorism is the majority of said terrorism.

Define shootings

I thought it was pretty clear that I was talking about politically motivated attacks when I was talking about the straight white shooters thing. Gang violence isn't really politically motivated.

And your numbers are way off:

https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1N363273/

Guess what? They have a right wing bias. They generally don’t report shootings because there’s no angle. Left wing sites do report on them because they want to push an anti-gun narrative, that and ratings.

So when left wing sources push an angle, it's to reduce deaths. When right wing sources push an angle, it's to demonize minorities who are already at risk for violence.

And you think the chosen angle for this particular case makes you look good?

Don’t think I didn’t notice just how light on details that AP is. They talk a bunch about the victims and Joel osteen, but they barely give you her name.

Glorifying shooters only makes copy cats more likely. The AP is being responsible.

If you're going to comment, at least try to address what I'm saying.

Crazy how you guys only care about gun violence when someone other than your own side does it. Especially given that most political violence is right wing violence.

Announcing the shooter as trans front and center in the headline only serves to portray trans people as violent and dangerous, because where would fox news be if not for its continual perpetuation of bigotry against already vulnerable minorities?

Most shooters are straight, cis, white males. Yet you'll never see fox news with a headline going "X shooting suspect identified as a straight, cis, white male with 'kill all blacks' written on gun".

Meanwhile your alternative article you linked shows what better journalism looks like:

"Female suspect fatally shot after shooting at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church"

And here is an actually good source:
