The issue, rather, is what picture of āpolitical violenceā this messaging serves: To say that āpolitical violenceā has āno placeā in a society organized by political violence at home and abroad is to acquiesce to the normalization of that violence, so long as it is state and capitalist monopolized.
As author Ben Ehrenreich noted on X, āThere is no place for political violence against rich, white men. It is antithetical to everything America stands for.ā
Yeah I definitely agree, I was more just replying to the quote from the article about them calling for civility. I donāt really imagine they would call for anything else after something like this as itās violence directed at people in similar positions of power to them.
