You are correct. The poison spreads into healthy political areas then slowly rots the place. The main stream media has to be disbanded if they produce the hate instead of the actual, factual news!
Excellent analysis. I may post it on my dusty and unused facebook account as a final finale. The comment before mine is ridiculous, and not an appropriate response to your article. Where did all the decent teachers go? Who poisoned our faculties? It will take decades to root out this cancer in the educational system. And it’s all over the western world.
What is interesting is that we ALL know where the freedom of speech red line is. We all know the difference between criticism and threat. And we should be able to stop this without endangering free speech because it is literally a no brainer. Rant against ideas and policy all you want, but threaten physical harm and you need to feel the cold weight of total isolation from any public platform UNTIL reformed! And adult time out, if you will.
The problem is, as Alex says, a lack of buy in from the progressive Democrats. They take their cues more from Marx and Marcuse than from Madison and Jefferson.
The democrats who take to violence are almost cult-like in their zeal and fanaticism. My point is that attacks on President Trump and the murder of Charlie Kirk were premeditated with the goal being murder. They planned out their attacks much like the Unabomber did. Hate and rage are the motivating forces.
Unless you are a government employee. They threaten us, the citizens on an hourly basis. Every law is basis upon the threat of "Do what I say or I will send men with guns to kill you.". Which is fine when you are talking about rape or murder, but most laws should be repealed as none of the government's business.
I definitely felt intimidated by an employer in 2016, but not to the level of an actionable ‘threat.’ Church where I worked just objected to a post criticizing an ‘official’. I didn’t even mean to share the ‘heading’ picture with criticism. I intended to share quotes IN the article from our Founders! (Warning of the incompatibilities of Islam) I deleted it about 45 minutes later. Then, I changed churches within months!
When the leadership does not hold themselves accountable for their rhetoric, how in the world do we expect their cult base to be any different?
It is a mainstream issue that is front and center at every step of the way. Pelosi, Schumer, Jeffries, and all of their club push the labels, push the outrage, push the lies. And then claim innocence when bullets fly in answer to their rhetoric.
They intentionally use the same lies and labels. And it is repeated by the cult. It is a truth above all others just because its the same in every infested corner.
The cult of destruction and death (the Democrat cult) will not rest until they have achieved the totalitarian power they lust after.
We are in the midst of a full on, multi front color revolution. There is no doubt.
Pray for this country like your life depends on it. Because, it does.
Does anybody believe the party ( and their cultist adherents) embracing the two most deadly ideologies in world history is going to somehow change course?
Unfortunately it appears another person deleted their response when I provided multiple links of evidence disproving this whole article. Here's the links again. Decades of studies show political violence is by far a right wing phenomenon. This whole article is not supported.
That’s undoubtedly true if you include all the Democrat racism in the ante-bellum South as… “right wing.” But what about now, Malik, the last few years. You’re good with progressive rhetoric that has already led to 3 assassination attempts on a sitting president?
Actually you don't see left wing violence overtaking right wing until you go back a century basically. As for the current spate, all of the links show that left wing violence only outstripped in 2025, and barely at that. The long term reality is as stated.
So a century and a half of anti-black racism by Democrats becomes “right wing” when convenient? The preponderantly Democratic KKK has now become “right wing?” Next you’ll say that Woodrow Wilson, our first progressive president, loved Blacks. Democrats have a two century history of intolerance, to say nothing of their economic policy failures. The GIGO rule still applies to AI. Do your own research.
The doors at the Capitol were designed to prevent people from breaking in. They were unlocked from inside. If you watched any of the videos, the Capitol police invited people in and escorted them through the building.
Oh my, that’s the worse example you can use. Jan 6 was a Democrat witch hunt with paid antifa activists in the crowd, FBI informants and FBI agents, refusal by Pelosi to call the National Guard, fake bomb scares, arrests and prosecutions by crooked Biden’s DOJ of peaceful protesters who many just walked through the Capitol after Cap Police opened the doors. Stop spreading Dems big lies about Jan 6.
Because the entire thing was a joke and these people were not given due process. It is quite simple if you actually pay attention to what happened. It is a no brainer.
Every appellate court found due process. Can you be a little more specific in how it broke down in dozens of trials? How come only MAGAs showed up to a protest if it was all some deep liberal plan?
Actually, Jan 6 is just one of the staged fraud false flag conspiracies hatched by Democrat leadership and fake news that convinces the brainwashed Left of its false Narrative about the “violent” Right.
The asymmetry is the finding. Permissiveness toward political violence in 2025 and 2026 is not symmetric across the ideological spectrum. It is concentrated on the left, and it is most concentrated among the young left and in particular those with advanced degrees, which is to say, in the demographic that consumes the largest volume of the rhetoric described above.
The pattern is not new, and it is not confined to Trump. In June 2017, James Hodgkinson, a devoted Bernie Sanders volunteer, opened fire on a Republican congressional baseball practice and nearly killed House Majority Whip Steve Scalise. Hodgkinson had marinated for years in Senator Sanders’s own framing of Republicans as authoritarians, dictators in waiting, agents of oligarchy, enemies of democracy, and threats to working families. In June 2022, Nicholas Roske traveled across the country with a firearm, knife, and burglary tools to assassinate Justice Brett Kavanaugh at his home, an act that followed Senator Chuck Schumer’s open warning on the steps of the Supreme Court that Kavanaugh had “unleashed the whirlwind” and would “pay the price.” Chief Justice John Roberts rebuked Schumer publicly and explained the obvious risk. Roske made the risk literal. In November 2017, Senator Rand Paul was tackled from behind by his neighbor René Boucher and suffered multiple broken ribs and a punctured lung. In July 2022, David Jakubonis attempted to stab Republican gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin on stage with an improvised weapon. John Cameron Denton, a man with no shortage of his own pathologies, made a credible assassination threat against Representative Paul Gosar, acquired a firearm, and assembled travel plans before his arrest. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has been the target of repeated swatting attempts and arrests involving threats with firearms and explosives. Of course most us watched as Charlie Kirk was gunned down on a college campus by Tyler Robinson.
The years the article refers to are 2017 to the present. All three of your links go back 40 years and are not relevant to what the author was referring to.
It is 100% germane. This article is trying to make it seem like political violence is some new thing. It isn't. I made a claim about decades of political violence. You asked for receipts.
I provided them up through this year. Not focused on a single year but decades.
Convenient but still incorrect. According to all studies, the first time left wing incidents outnumbered right wing incidents was 2025 in volume. Yet when factoring actual death and violence, right wing is STILL higher.
When the Dems say they are going to make your life a misery they mean it. They aspire to run gulags. Why do you think so many have volunteered to work in Cuba or Nicaragua?
Does anyone think to tell the Democrats and media (sorry for the redundancy) that if they do manage to assassinate Trump, there will not be many of them breathing in a year?
This is why I left Portland. They don't just dislike me, they want me dead. When people tell you who they are, believe them.
Yep, and we are the ones who are being called fascists.
Yes. Portland will move to Asheville NC, Texas, Florida and everywhere else. What then?
Asheville NC is kind of a mini-Portland already.
We need a campaign, “stop the rot” and educate the youth with actual truth not propaganda.
That's a tall order with both the internet and a teaching profession that is overwhelmingly left-leaning.
They wanted to be attractive real estate and they… were.
Greater Idaho (http://greateridaho.org) is what we are trying to do here.
The first thing built should be walls, like Afghanistan and other places. Then build the houses.
And be heartened by the fact that you could walk coast to coast through red counties.
You are correct. The poison spreads into healthy political areas then slowly rots the place. The main stream media has to be disbanded if they produce the hate instead of the actual, factual news!
None of us can do that, we could check our neighbors greed to sell land to strangers.
Excellent analysis. I may post it on my dusty and unused facebook account as a final finale. The comment before mine is ridiculous, and not an appropriate response to your article.

You might consider what happened to members of the Weather Underground. They got college teaching jobs, including members that had been in jail

Hate and rage are very much in style with the Left.
“Threaten physical harm” indeed a red line standard/ prohibition.
Unless you are a government employee. They threaten us, the citizens on an hourly basis. Every law is basis upon the threat of "Do what I say or I will send men with guns to kill you.".

"The rhetoric is not separate from the violence. It is the cause of it." Exactly right.
Greg Gutfeld has a great take on how the media trains people like Cole Allen. (4 minutes) https://rumble.com/v7938uc-greg-gutfeld-goes-off-on-democrat-media-complex-for-radicalizing-whcd-shoot.html?e9s=src_v1_cmd%2Csrc_v1_upp_a

Why are the calls to arms of Carville, Schumer, and Jeffries not considered death threats ?
According to Democrats and leftists, "words are violence." If that's true, then what is "violence?"
Does anybody believe the party ( and their cultist adherents) embracing the two most deadly ideologies in world history is going to somehow change course?

That's what you got from my reply? Sigh.
Anyway, just so you know, those southern democrats became what we now call Republicans. In the 1960s. So, Yea......

Jan 6th and decades of political violence studies disprove this entire article
Oh my, that’s the worse example you can use.

Uh huh
Jan 6th was a Fedsurrection set up by the LEFT and the only violence comes from ONE PARTY; The DemonRats
Malik is one crazy leftist.
Then why did Trump pardon all the participants? Who all seem to be MAGA?
I think you just answered your own question 🤦♀️
Because the entire thing was a joke and these people were not given due process. It is quite simple if you actually pay attention to what happened. It is a no brainer.
Every appellate court found due process. Can you be a little more specific in how it broke down in dozens of trials? How come only MAGAs showed up to a protest if it was all some deep liberal plan?
Did you mean to write “I am a no brainer.”?
I responded to Silent scorn when asked for receipts. The record is clear.
Actually, Jan 6 is just one of the staged fraud false flag conspiracies hatched by Democrat leadership and fake news that convinces the brainwashed Left of its false Narrative about the “violent” Right.
If you think is was just the Democrats, you are a fool.
Sure. https://newsletter.amuseonx.com/p/political-violence-in-america-has/comment/250154776?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=df05j
So two unarmed conservative women is your idea of political violence? They were invited in.
Huh?
If so, then make your case with facts. This is not a high school forum.
You're late to the party. Already done
Receipts?

Please reread this part of the article:

I provided them up through this year. Not focused on a single year but decades.
You asked, I provided. What else would you like?
Nothing. The article is summarizing the rise in leftist political violence in the last decade. Not decades.
Convenient but still incorrect. According to all studies, the first time left wing incidents outnumbered right wing incidents was 2025 in volume. Yet when factoring actual death and violence, right wing is STILL higher.
So you can't even hang your hat on that. 🤷🏾♂️
When the Dems say they are going to make your life a misery they mean it. They aspire to run gulags. Why do you think so many have volunteered to work in Cuba or Nicaragua?
Wow, Cole followed Hakeem, AOC, Warren, JBP & Sheldon.
That's some team.
Does anyone think to tell the Democrats and media (sorry for the redundancy) that if they do manage to assassinate Trump, there will not be many of them breathing in a year?
Asking for a friend.
