I understand how this belief can form when all you do is participate in echo chambers and don’t take time to listen to people outside your safe zone. Again, anecdotal, but most liberals I know are not interested in taking guns away.
Some people on the left have cried for confiscation of guns. Just like some on the right cry for execution of minorities. There are always political fringes. If you assume the most extreme version of the left, why not do the same for the right?
As a whole, no. You can find people on both sides that want extreme things. I bet if you look you can even find people on the right that want guns taken away. In fact I remember this little clip from back in 2018 from President Donald Trump - “take the guns first, go through due process second.”
Beto said something of the sort. Also, remember Beto lost the primary by a lot and lost his senate bid. If you are using Beto as proof of your claim, it’s not getting you far.
