#Republicans #violence

Reminder: What happened to Charlie Kirk was not an outlier. The overwhelming majority of extremist violence in the USA is coming from the right.

So that I, as a German, have understood this correctly: A Republican man k*lled another Republican man at a Republican event and the response from Republicans was to threaten the lives of Democrats.

Right? Ok.

You're very close. A right-wing man killed another right-wing man at a right-wing event at a right-wing college in a right-wing city with a right-wing mayor in a right-wing state with a right-wing governor and right-wing gun laws BECAUSE HE WASN'T RIGHT-WING ENOUGH.

The Republicans have to blame the Democrats because the only other group they could blame would be themselves. Deep down, they know the truth, but they can't face it because that would mean reassessing their whole belief system.
