Jordan Peterson shares poll showing white liberals embrace using violence to
pursue political goals more than conservatives

This breaks the narrative the corporate MSM is telling you

Following the summer of regular riots in American cities by Black Lives
Matter and Antifa members (and they were at it again in Seattle yesterday)
as well as the January storming of the Capitol by

Trump supporters, there is debate about which side of the political spectrum
embraces violence to achieve their goals. A poll found that white liberals are
far more likely to support using violence to advance their political agenda.

Participants were asked: "How much do you feel it is justified for people to
use violence to pursue their political goals in this country?" Respondents
could answer with "Not at all," "A little," "A moderate amount," A lot," and "A
great deal." The study has a total of 8,280 interviews that were conducted
before the 2020 presidential election.

The survey found that 95.8% of "very conservative" white respondents said
violence should never be used to pursue a political ambition, which was up
from 93.3% in 2016. "Conservative" respondents were nearly identical, with
95% disavowing political violence in 2020 and 93.3% in 2016.

However, on the other end of the political spectrum, leftists are more likely to
embrace political violence as a means to an end. According to the poll, only
66.5% of "very liberal" white respondents said it was wrong to use violence
to attain their political goals. That means that over a third of "very liberal"
Americans would justify using some or a "great deal" of violence to pursue
their political goals. In the 2016 survey, the percent of "very liberal"
respondents willing to endorse political violence was much higher at 86.9%

Jordan and the pollsters have no ties to Blaze - they are reporting the tweet and findings which are illuminating yet sadly not surprising

Are we still pretending BLM was behind the Coup to keep Trump in charge?

I'd say it's more a case of ad hominem rather than strawmanning or whataboutery.

Anyway, I wish people would stop using the term "liberal" when describing the more violent brand of leftie...

And posted in among others The conservative review and Bull dog reports. I cant find the original poll on the original sites,

So start the discussion off for us. Why do you think this is relevant?

I believe in facts, I like my news without an agenda. I don't believe in reading news that is slanted to one side or another while Blaze is aimed at a conservative audience, telling them what they want to hear with no regard to reality.

A right wing 'news' website telling the world how dangerous the left is, is like Oil companies trying to tell the world not to invest in renewable energy.
