It’s more that incidences of gun violence and mass shootings are so astoundingly common in the USA that at this point you can find representations of anything in the data, because there’s like 6,000 points of it in the last decade.
Are there trans mass shooters? Yes, definitely. Are there violent people who endorse democrats or are “leftist”, whatever that means when mass media says it? Yes. But does that change the fact that something like 80+% of domestic bombings and mass shootings done since like 1998 have been committed by right wing nutjobs and religious extremists (and that’s not just code for Islamic extremism, it also includes the many bombings of abortion clinics, the bombing of the Olympics, and the assassinations of abortion providers done by Christian fundamentalists that gets swept under the rug bc we only care about religious extremism when brown people do it).
But now you’re starting to talk about math and people hate that shit. And even when they don’t the right will handwave away or memory hole tons of stuff. The guy that assassinated the democratic senators doesn’t count, the great replacement shooters don’t count, etc. go on kiwi farms or /pol/ and you’ll literally see people say that there’s only been left wing violence in the us since 2006 or 2008, which is just patently absurd.
The ones tying transgender to violence probably tried to pick up a transgender once upon a time and got slapped when they tried to SA.
