If you ever want to get really mad, start reading about the historical and current differences between how the American justice system treats people on the Left vs. the Right I hear you shaking your head and scrolling past but seriously. Blatant, systemic imbalance.https://twitter.com/BetasGamma/status/1229208380163493888 …

Knee jerk reaction is there is likely very little data that people on the political left are judged more stringently.

I don't have a study. However, that book I mentioned has a bunch of historical examples of white supremacist violence and a shockingly low conviction rate. People who react against that violence tend to fare much more poorly in the courts

I’m willing to believe that some white supremacists are punishes lightly, but I’m not ready to broad stroke this to right and left at large.

Then I posit that you have a look beyond your immediate community.

Without data it seems like a pretty wild claim with a tall order of burden of proof.
