The statement claims that 'very liberal' individuals are more likely to support violence against political enemies compared to 'very conservative' individuals, using a statistic to support this claim. The tone is accusatory and divisive, suggesting a significant ideological difference in attitudes towards violence.

1. Principle 1:

   I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.

   The statement potentially causes harm by generalizing and attributing violent tendencies to a political ideology, which could exacerbate tensions. [-2]
2. Principle 2:

   I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.

   It does not respect the dignity of individuals with liberal views, as it generalizes them as more supportive of violence. [-2]
3. Principle 3:

   I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.

   The statement does not promote understanding or empathy, instead it highlights division and conflict between political ideologies. [-2]
4. Principle 4:

   I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.

   The statement does not engage in constructive dialogue and instead makes a broad accusation without acknowledging complexity or nuance. [-2]
