How come the left is more upset about Trump’s shooting than the right was about Jan 6 (basically an assasination attempt on Biden and other politicians)?

Don’t act like the parties are the same.  One has a consistent anti unwanted pain ethos and applies it even to people they hate; the other is only interested in power and they only like Trump because of his vibes (which while I admit Trump’s vibes are entertaining, they should be frankly irrelevant for an election).

Why are you upset that the bullet missed? You should get more practice at the range. Learn to inflict pain.

Because the extreme left has always been the most violent and fanatic, and hence they carry more deads in history. That's a historical fact.

There should be something about the left rethoric that make people so savage.

Jan 6 is evidence to the contrary.

Simply because the left is more active on social media...

When I had an Instagram account, I followed an equal # of left and right accounts.  The right wing accounts made up like 90% of my feed.

It turns out Big Tech wants to promote right wing accounts because the more they get promoted, the more people vote right wing, so the lower Big Tech's taxes will be.

That is factually incorrect-

Social media recommendation algorithms work, according to your preferences , and create a sort of 'echo chamber', where you don't really get to know the views of the other side.

No, thats only if you are stupid.

I intentionally seek opposite views on YouTube, so YouTube always gives me opposite views.

Its the opposite of an echo chamber. Its only an echo chamber for the brainless people who dont have a brain anyway.

I tried to be in as little of an echo chamber as plausible with 50/50 left/right accounts.  90% of the content I saw was right wing.

I think it could be since you followed really big and famous right wing creator's, and relatively newer left wingers.

But generally speaking most corporates are center left aligned.

Possible, but I tried to follow big names on both sides.

Why would corporations align with the party that wants to raise their taxes?

Many companies changed their logos during pride month, that is pretty clear messaging

Elon Musk supports trump though, I have seen him talk shit about leftists on YouTube.

They are grifting/virtue signaling.  They know that out of the people who buy their products the following information:

  1. About 67% of their customers are left wing.  57% of the US population is left wing; but given that women (more left wing) do most of the shopping and given the left is more likely to spend while the right is more likely to invest, this leads to about 2/3 of shoppers being left wing.
  2. If a company leans into right wing causes, this 67% is less likely to shop from them.  If a company leans into left wing causes, the right wing customers more or less ignore it.  I've seen so many conservatives consume starbucks; it's way less common for a left winger to consume Chick Fil A.  Conservatives care less about a company's politics than liberals do.
So it makes sense for a company to pretend to be socially progressive to make more money in this capitalistic economy so liberals spend more money so their stock price grows so investors (who are disproportionally conservative) get richer.

They aren't. Just because Ol' Joe says that doesn't mean that most leftists wished the bullet didn't miss

Hey FLRW, do you ever get the idea that some folks on this forum have been out to lunch since day one?

Hang Mike Pence! Hang Mike Pence! Hang Mike Pence! Oh yeah, they { MAGA } dont believe in the truth as being of any sigificance to humanity. To MAGA truth is like a gnat { the truth } buzzing around their eyes, and they just want to slap it away.

I think truth is the pudding.  And not the strangers crotch of  pudding who Trumpet and MAGA support grabbing eating if possible.

Bodily autonomy for women is last on most MAGA Republicans mind. Virtual rapist, crotch grabbers, and their  list of a lack of moral integrity goes along with the evangelical Bible court { some Supreme Court justices perhaps }.

Watch CNN for an hour they still lie about stuff like claiming Trump told people to inject bleach and yet you still blindly believe that Trump is lying about stuff

Chatgtpai.....To "grab pudding by the crotch" is a colloquial expression that means to take control or assert oneself in a situation, often in a bold or audacious manner.

This phrase is typically used to convey a sense of confidence and assertiveness in taking charge of a situation, similar to the way one might seize control of a slippery or elusive object. It can also imply a sense of taking a risk or seizing an opportunity with determination and gusto.

Overall, grabbing pudding by the crotch signifies a bold and assertive approach to handling a challenging or uncertain circumstance. "

Obviously chatgtpai is likened to Data or Spock, sort of not totally in tune with the context of the moment.

Thank you for finding the clip and confirming he didn't tell people to inject bleach.  I appreciate you helping his credibility

Oh that is your point. He didn’t tell people to inject themselves with disinfectant, he simply said at a press conference in the White House this is something his people are going to be exploring, suggesting it could be a game changer. Ya, that’s so different, thanks MAGA MORON.

And bleach is so, so different than disinfectant. Those two things are completely different to MAGA MORONS

I appreciate you helping his credibility
Oh ya, this clip totally helps his credibility with MAGA MORONS.

yes, if we elect Trump we can wipe out the Republican party and all poor (worth less than $300 million) Republicans.

  1. Murdering people for being republicans is a crazy idea.
  2. At this point in time, Trump is the republican party (just like Biden is the democrat party).  This is like saying if you elect Bernie Sanders, then you will wipe out Judaism.  You don't wipe a group out by electing one of their members to a position of political power.

It's not murdering them, it's financially wiping them out when the dollar collapses. Oh wait, yes, a lot of them will commit suicide.
