It's worrying to see it from the conservative elites and it's also happening to more rank and file right wing posters, too.

The thing these people are really doing is permission-structuring themselves to support actual political violence against their opponents in the coming years.
Somehow I doubt they were this concerned about the Melissa Hortman assassination.

One of the interesting things in psychology is that once a person does a bad thing
it becomes easier, and easier to do the bad thing.
It's the initial doing of the bad thing that is the hardest part, breaking a social norm, crossing that rubicon.
And the primary reason for that is normalization

We applied U.S. intelligence tradecraft to assess democratic decline. The indicators were clear: executive overreach, weakened checks, manipulated elections, and loyalty over law. We must take the risks seriously.

there was never going to be a world in which the right didn’t claim the left was celebrating the death of charlie kirk, no matter how respectable anyone tried to be.

Before knowing all the facts, voices on the right are now exploiting the tragic death of Charlie Kirk & calling for all-out war on the left. This is sad, but not surprising, at a time when we should all be denouncing political violence. They were not so upset when Minn. Democrats were assassinated.

people on the right don’t tend to wait for any information about the motivations of the shooter before blaming the left. But Kirk had enemies on the right too; some of them surely live in Utah. And as with any shooting, the shooter’s motivations may not map onto any coherent politics at all.

Hannah Arendt said 'The death of human empathy is one of the earliest & most telling signs of a culture about to fall into barbarism'
We saw the recent cruelty of MAGA denying empathy to Melissa Hortman
Empathy for Kirk—not because he ever acted like a decent human—but because we are decent humans

Rufo calling for mass arrests, Blake Masters & Cernovich calling for RICO against Dem & left funders, and a whole lot of everyday people begging for martial law, or, even worse, "gloves off." 99.9% of whom are just spouting off, but today if anything teaches us the damage that one .1% fool can do.

Terrified to think of how far-right fans of Kirk, aching for more violence, could very well turn this into an even more radicalizing moment
Will they now believe their fears have been proven right and feel they have a right to "retaliate," regardless of who actually was behind the initial shooting?

This is not some kumbaya “go high” shit. It’s me telling you when I’ve had a gun pointed at me—literally, not figuratively—it wasn’t the time to posture. Fascism’s guns are at the ready. Think before you spout off. Winning the struggle against fascism is what matters.

I’ve been writing about what I call “slow civil war” for some years now. This won’t tip us into the fast kind but it could bring us much closer. & friends, nobody would win that war. Nobody.

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.
