No, the vast majority of mass killings in the US are by right wing extremists, resulting from the vast number of calls for violence from right wing leaders and social media posters. Misinformation and mass delusion like QAnon is way more prevalent on the right. And so is denial of reality like Alex Jones' attacks on Sandy Hook parents. Where are the equivalent of QAnon and Alex Jones on right?

What is your source for this? As far as I understand the vast majority of mass killings in the US have no political motive.

Source? Most mass shootings were related to gang violence last I checked.

The vast majority of mass killings are not politically motivated and are in fact gang related. The vast majority of politically related mass killings are committed by people with severe mental illness and the political leanings of the perpetrators are irrelevant. Of the politically related mass killings done by people of sound mind, the distribution is fairly even politically speaking.
