I am not lumping school shooters as far-right, I am separating the two. Also I am not talking so much about the methods or motivation but rather the demographics of those involved. Obviously they are not connected in terms of their politics or religion.
What I think they have in common is that they tend to be young men who are isolated from wider society. Maybe it's a case of collation not implying causation and maybe it's just a function of the mindset that would do such a thing to be isolated. But why is it rarely women too? It's also not a new observation to say that isolation makes people more susceptible to being radicalised.
That said it might be a bit of a simplification so this isn't a argument I would argue too strongly
