The report, produced by the Network of Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) in partnership with Rutgers University's Social Perception Lab, finds a broader "assassination culture" appears to be "emerging within segments of the U.S. public on the extreme left, with expanding targets now including figures such as Donald Trump."

Less than a year after assassination attempts on then-presidential candidate Trump and the literally explosive violence against Musk's Tesla electric vehicles, it's no secret that leftists are ratcheting up violent rhetoric and actions. The more troubling trend is that an "assassination culture" isn't just coming from the "fringe" left.

"These attitudes are not fringe -- they reflect an emergent assassination culture, grounded in far-left authoritarianism and increasingly normalized in digital discourse," states the report, titled, "Assassination Culture: How Burning Teslas and Killing Billionaires Became a Meme Aesthetic for Political Violence."
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

Well, the political violence would be acceptable if we’re allowed to shoot back :thatsright:
Life is tough and it’s even tougher when you’re stupid

Basking in the glow of my white Privilege and toxic masculinity while I water the Begonias with liberal tears!

I will give up my guns when the liberals give up their illegal aliens

We need a Bull Shit tax to make the Democrats go broke!

See; that's the thing, though. We ARE "allowed" to shoot back whether the leftist scum like it or not, and if by some remarkable alignment of the stars one of them managed to land a hit on Donaldus Magnus, Elon Musk or one of the cabinet secretaries, it would be OPEN SEASON on blue-haired freaks of nature with no bag limit. Their pronouns would be WAS/WERE thereafter forever more.
