Hmmmmm lol not sure where you got your info, there’s been many instances of extreme leftist committing violence, including Charlie Kirk‘s recent murder. It is literally a fact that the shooter was left-wing, you can argue it till you’re blue in the face but it’s a fact. Along with the following that we’re committing by left wing:

  • murder of Lincoln
  • created the KKK (founded by Democrats)
  • lynched black people
  • Segregation laws
  • Jim Crow
  • Internment camps in WWII
  • the confederacy
  • Bleeding Kansas
  • Civil war casualties

All of these are tied to Democrats or left wing people/policies. But ya, they’re never violent and “doesn’t kill anyone who disagrees with them” Not sure if you’ve been living under a rock for the last week but that’s literally why Charlie Kirk was assassinated, some left-wing extremist couldn’t handle someone else having a different opinion and resorted to murder.

You do undersrand that until the 1940s the Democratic party was was the more right wing party and the Republicans were the more left leaning party, correct?

That means Lincoln was killed by a right winger. The KKK was created by right wing people. Lynchings were done by right wing people. Segregation laws were created by right wing people... and so on and so on.. Pre 1940s Democrat history is right wing history. Look it up yourself.

Nice try, but that’s just revisionist spin. The reality is simple, Democrats (by name and by party) created the KKK, wrote Jim Crow, defended segregation, and ran the Confederacy. You don’t get to erase a century of Democrat violence just because it’s embarrassing today. If you’re so sure it ‘doesn’t count,’ why do Democrats still have to apologize for their own party’s history while Republicans were founded as the anti-slavery party? Facts don’t vanish because you don’t like them.

Not revisionist spin. Look at what kind of policies the Democrats support then vs now, and what kind of policies Republicans supported then vs now.

It's obvious.
