And some examples of domestic political violence off the top of my head:

partial list of Black people murdered by police

maternal deaths rise in states where abortion is banned

trans lives lost

deaths on the border

wheelchair using protestor attacked by police

armed police raid homeless camp

child working in meat processing plant

And there are many, many more (the treatment of Indigenous people, for profit healthcare, school shootings, food deserts, "the war on drugs", the prison industrial complex...).

E: since I'm not sure if the image ID 's are visible, just a quick description of each photo, from the top:

A partial list of Black people murdered by police
Rise in maternal deaths in states where abortion has been banned
A memorial for trans people who were murdered
Photos of people who disappeared attempting to migrate to the US
Police throw a Black protestor out of their wheelchair
Armed police raid a homeless camp
A child working in a meat processing plant
