It's such a cute narrative.
Anybody who doesn't reflexively agree with liberals is a hate-monger. The most public voices of disagreement are are inciting hatred.
Yet, when killer after killer turns out to hold leftist sympathies they may have been corrupted by rightist hatred.
In fact, right-wingers so hateful the only proper response is to hate them.
Call me paranoid but methinks this is but a precursor to trying to frame us as unfit for civil discourse.
