Why are left-wing political parties pro-disarmament?

By left, do you simply mean liberal in general or are you going far left like socialism?

Davi; my question to TM was to clarify his comment, not to make a statement. I’m a little unclear what he means by “left”.

Is there a difference between the right and fascists? Who tried to overthrow democracy? And you want to call the left communists, too? That's rich.

What rights of the individual citizen are the "right" treading on? Neither side of the false dichotomy are fascist (but they both like to accuse the other of it).

One side didn't try to overthrow a fair election and essentially end democracy as we know it. If it weren't for a few people with a spine and morals, we would be Russia 2.0. That's a big difference between the left and right imo. God forbid facts are spoken, though. I must be an evil leftist communist for just stating the obvious.

A fair election? There is no such thing as one. There's plenty of election tampering on both sides and all that mud got thrown around.

Besides those people on january 6th weren't exactly looking to overthrow anything. If they were, they wouldn't have shown up unarmed. They were a bunch of idiots that got all hyped up from Donnie's rally, then had some "agents" that were encouraging them to rush the capital. When they got there, the police removed their baracades and let them in (plenty of videos on Twitter of this happening).

And mind you, I don't participate in voting at all. I think it's stupid and gay. From the selection of the candidates to the manipulation of the morons voting through the media, biased education system and even the culture of the places people work at. Both sides will accuse the other of all the same shit they're guilty of themselves. There really wasn't much difference in the actions of Trump and the actions of Barry or Biden. Their rhetoric was different, but at the end of the day, Donnie did everything the "left" wanted and would say "they forced me to." Depsite having a majority in both houses AND the presidency.

Don’t know where you live or who you know (nor do I want to), but in my excellent neighborhood, we have a spectrum of beliefs that span across the left, center and right. My humble opinion would be to exist in only one part of that political spectrum and to classify others as the same is not ideal and limits one’s ability to make decent judgements and decisions.
