My point being, the calls for violence are
not from both sides, the calls for violent revolution and for killing politicians are not from people escalating the rhetoric on "both sides".
It is
ONE SIDE tha is consistently escalating with that kind of rhetoric.
And we all know which side that is. The Democrat/Left. From grassroots Democrats, to Bernie Sanders campaign volunteers, to Democrat House and Senate members, to Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Cory Booker, A O-C, Rashida Tlaib, at the very top of the Democrat food chain.
Former attorney general "when hey go low we kick 'em" Eric Holder. Under Obama, the chief law enforecement officer !
BLM, Anifa, the anti-ICE movement, and "No Kings" movement, all Soros-funded astro-turfed protests/riots orchestrated across cities nationwide, with trucks in city afer city dropping off palettes of bricks close to federal buildings, to further foment and escalate violence of hese organized protests. Just as they did in the 2020 George Floyd riots nationwide. On and on.
Up and down the Democrat heirarchy, it is THEY, not conservative Republicans, who are constantly escalating the rhetoric, since at least 2000.
It is not a vague "coarsening of the culture", it is not "both sides", it is ONE SIDE, the
DEMOCRAT/LEFT SIDE that is constantly escalating with the most incendiary rhetoric, and openly calling for violence, and the death of political leaders they don't like.
And if someone on the conservative/Republican side like Senator Mike Lee dares to point that out, even in a humorous context, he is labelled by the M E M's of the world as "vile" and a "P O S".
I would argue that Mike Lee would be even more liked, and re-elected by an even greater margin in his next election, if he
didn't retract and take down his comments.
But he chose to tone down the rhetoric, even though he gains nothing from it.
Mile Lee stood down.
The Democrat-Bolsheviks, carrying effigy severed heads and guillotines invoking the French Revolution and Robespierre's reign of terror, never will.
But yeah, Mike Lee is "vile".
Just pointing out also:
There is no evidence to date, NONE, that this shooter was motivated to shoot these people by "right wing" rhetoric, violent or otherwise.The violent rhetoric is virtually all on the Democrat side. Certainly the worst of it.
