Survey: Most Self-Identifying Lefties Say Killing Trump Is Justified

Start the geofencing and start getting warrants to raid old liberal women's homes.


SURVEY: 55% Of Self-Identified Leftists Say Killing Trump Is Justifiable

The more troubling trend is the rising violent rhetoric isn't just coming from the 'fringe' left, it's being 'normalized' by the left.

M.D. Kittle

The unhinged left, fueled by Trump Derangement Syndrome and seething hatred for Elon Musk, is trending more violent, according to a new study that finds political violence targeting President Donald Trump and his billionaire adviser is "becoming increasingly normalized."

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."

...

"The reports found widespread justification for lethal violence -- including assassination -- among younger, highly online, and ideologically left-aligned users," the authors of the latest study write.

They note the spillover effect beyond the online world, illustrated by a proposed California ballot measure macabrely named "the Luigi Mangione Access to Health Care Act," celebrating the alleged leftist terrorist and murderer of United Healthcare head Brian Thompson. The ballot measure targets health insurance denials, one of Mangione's reported flashpoints.

On Friday, a California man reportedly "angry with pharmacies" was arrested on charges of murdering a Walgreens employee just days after the Luigi Mangione Act was filed with the state. ABC 30 reported that Erick Velazquez, the victim, was not a pharmacist, and was a respected husband and father of two.


How many times did you hear about the "gallows" outside the White House? It was a miniature model of a gallows, not a real working gallows.

J6ers were surveilled and arrested not for taking any criminal action but just for writing about the #Rigged election. Leftwing prosecutors and judges claimed that repeating forbidden ideas constituted joining a conspiracy against the US.

So they should get the J6 treatment, on steroids. They're openly calling for the assassination of the president.

Jack Black, at the advice of his PR agent the next day, canceled the rest of the tour and said that Gas was wrong for saying something so obviously wrong.

37 There is no such thing as "political violence" in this debauched nonsensical version of leftism.

Everything moral is political. Everything political is moral. Eventually, nothing is political or moral anymore. It's beyond the Moral Equivalent of War, because it's beyond War. This is all existential for them.

"Politics" and "Violence" don't signify anything to a movement that is pure unthinking id. They've turned themselves, through whatever it is they have that passes for a philosophy, into little more than vermin. Pests. A nuisance animal little better than a strand of a virus or a fungal spore.

41 When James Carville and other prominent Democrats talk the way they do, using violent rhetoric and comparing anyone in Congress who votes for a Trump-supported bill to a WW2 Nazi collaborator, this is what happens. Ordinary people start to think political murder is somehow acceptable.

I think Carville looks at the exposure of massive corruption that is happening, thanks to DOGE, and figures he can only save himself and all his mysterious wealth by provoking this sort of violence.

I actually saw Carville close up years ago, in the United Concourse at O'Hare. He is pretty weird looking close up, too. Stomps around like a crazy guy. Had on a nice 3-piece black suit. And speaking of nuts, went across from the bookstore he was in (I was literally about 5 feet away from him) and got a big tub of nuts from some vending place.
Yes, he's nuts, and I should have complained to the airline about letting him in the building.

It goes a bit beyond that.

The "applecart" is all-encompassing. Trump is an existential threat to global system of corruption and theft that underpins literally everything. That threat is fairly small in reality - it is all so big and so entrenched that it is probably unfixable - but even marginal degradation is life-threatening.

Anyone not in the club runs a real risk - intentional or not - of ending the world. Those dependent entirely on the world as it functions today *and* aware of the stakes (or being paid by those who do) are rightfully terrified.

But it has to happen. The system is too corrupt.

60 Just to indicate the prevailing culture (I posted this on the ONT last night):

Amazing story out of DC - a couple was charged with vandalizing five different Teslas over the course of the last month.

They're both accused of writing political hate speech on five different Teslas over the past month in Northeast D.C.

The phrases included "I like what Musk is doing," "ask me about my support of Nazis," "Let’s do away with the administrative state! Buy a Tesla," "I love Musk and hate the Fed Govt" and "Go DOGE. I support Musk killing the Dept. of Education."

The husband was formerly employed by the General Accounting Office, and the wife is a lawyer and is the
"Chief Strategy Officer" with the Smart Electric Power Alliance NGO, doubtless funded by the US Department of Energy.

Prior to that, she was a senior official with the Edison Electric Institute for sixteen years (the Edison Electric Institute is the national trade association for private electric utilities).

Fortunately for them, a DC jury will never convict them, so they'll be able to go back to Tesla vandalism before you know it.

The bien-pensants were chuckling approvingly of films like Death of a President, about the assassination of George W. Bush.

This was one of the more prominent cases where a judge was trying to force Trump to pay out USAID contract money, and the judge has seemingly given up on any sort of emergency motion on it. The money's not going out.

103 Completely callous to the implication that the success of their political philosophy rests upon the necessary assassination of their opponents.

In theory they should be afraid to do so as the obvious response from people that don't want their revolution is to visit the same sort of violence back on them - imagine, in 1938 an SA thug, IN FRANCE, telling French Jews he's going to kill them when he gets a chance.

112 I am again reminded of a thought I had in maybe 2014. I was driving down the highway and there was a little news break on the radio. The story was about a new survey that said some non-trivial number of people - under half, but a big number in the teens or higher - thought a civil war was a real possibility.

I told my father at the time that I had never heard a greater signal that things were irretrievably broken. Not that some plurality thought this, but that pollsters were *asking* it seriously in the first place. A healthy society doesn't need to ask that question. If things were wrong enough that the question was being seriously asked and studied, it's already a signal of monumental decay.

That decay continues. The notion of a new civil war is no longer "far out" on the fringes, and lots of people want to imminatize it through casual murder of political opponents - and that attitude is not limited to the lunatic fringe.

Think about kids entering college in 2015 or guys just starting to pay attention to why you as a male have to say you'd murder all the babies all day long as a way to get into the pants of girls your age. Ten years of that. Nazi, Nazi, Russia, Nazi. They know nothing else.

Just like the Luigi guy felt it permissible to take the life of someone because he was disgruntled. Same with the pharmacy killer. The Democrats, and let's face it, they are now mostly hard left, believe you either agree with them in all things, or you deserve death. Hence, the normality in their minds in thinking it's okay to kill Trump because they feel it's their moral imperative. This toothpaste isn't going back in the tube. It's only going to ratchet up worse. It's complete cultural rot and I'm sorry to say I don't see it turning around.

211 I think this case where the judge has ordered Trump to demand Salvador return that guy is the big one.

The one where the Judiciary, the SCOTUS, either decides it wants to remain co-equal or irrelevant.

Because there is no clearer violation than a judge ordering the President on how to conduct foreign policy.
They can pound the desk. They can scream. They can holler. They can list all the horribles and evils done.

And fuck right off.

1) they gave fuck-all when Obama was KILLING American citizens in other countries.
2) His return is not the only sole remedy
3) And I think this is the one all the courts are dancing past--he's still in this country illegally.
Just because there was an order was to not deport him to one country, Salvador, does not mean he wasn't subject to removal.

235 Everyone is waiting for someone else to do something. Waiting for: the courts, Congress, common sense to kick in, external pressure from foreign countries, a military coup. Anything.

Meanwhile, Project 2025 just keeps rolling over us.

We are in the streets. We are the people. We will prevail. And there will be another on April 19 with many more to come. It's all we've got right now, unless you have other and better ideas.

Do you have some suggestions that won't get people arrested/disappeared at this point? We should have been out in the streets and maybe taken over the Doge building at the get go, but we don't have the numbers we need. I am waiting for the younger people to get involved in this in meaningful numbers. The apathy is scary.

Nobody wants to be the one to shoot Trump, but everyone wants to go to the party afterward.

Grassroots is fighting back! From yelling at repugs in Congressional town halls to protesting this past Saturday in all 50 states to yelling at Congressional dems for not doing enough to fight back in their town halls.

In Red China after the revolution one there were power struggles between the communist elites - Mao seeing he was weakening tapped the young and dumb children to throw another revolution from within the revolution to give himself more power again

Posted by: Lithiated gp For Refreshment

Not really. The main reason is it has its own massive direct tax to feed it even the so called panic about the trust fund meant that tax only supported about 70-75 percent of benefits. Raise the retirement age to 70 and early retirement to 65, that pushes such an outcome to 2070s or more.

Medicare is the one that is broke because its dedicated tax rate was set too low and too many people are aging into it. Needs to be increased something on the order to social security payroll tax to restore solvency.

Medicaid is on a similar flight path and both are about 1.5 trillion of the current budget. Medicare is 950 billion more or less and Medicaid the remainder.

He is.

He has an aborted asylum claim saying he's afraid of a particular gang in El Salvador. But...the gang no longer exists in any real form because of the reforms in the country that have turned it into one of the safest countries in all of the Americas.

The order is supposed to be that he should be deportable anywhere but El Salvador.

But...he's already there and the judge demanding that Trump somehow get him back is borderline demanding that he take military action against the country to get this guy back and dump him in another country. It's real dumb, and it's not going to last.

It's also why McConnell should no longer get credit for judges.

He ceded majority rule to Schumer for 2 years when the Senate was 50-50. Arguably, it was 50-48 since Sanders and King aren't actually Democrats.

And with that, Schumer forced through, in particular in committee, a host of terrible judges that McConnell, had he actually asserted his authority as real majority leader, could have prevented.

They THINK they have that ace.

It's a wildcard. And a weak one.
The ones they think will be their cannon fodder, their foot soldiers, are ill-trained except in terrorism and will flee before fighting for ... gringos.
The rest? The free-loaders will protest and such, sure.
And be ignored. (Oh no! Another protest in a deep blue city!)
While, Trump the Dealmaker, will offer just enough of a carrot to the largely law-abiding and industrious that they will join us.

I am again reminded of a thought I had in maybe 2014. I was driving down the highway and there was a little news break on the radio. The story was about a new survey that said some non-trivial number of people - under half, but a big number in the teens or higher - thought a civil war was a real possibility.

I told my father at the time that I had never heard a greater signal that things were irretrievably broken. Not that some plurality thought this, but that pollsters were *asking* it seriously in the first place. A healthy society doesn't need to ask that question. If things were wrong enough that the question was being seriously asked and studied, it's already a signal of monumental decay.

You are correct. There are significant savings to be had, but ultimately this is just nibbling around the margins. It's taken about 80 years give or take for the health care "system" to get to its current state of fuckery. Reducing waste and fraud is a worthwhile goal but the fuckery will remain.

As of 1.21pm EST, she is still walking around free. And I am betting that at 1.21pm EST next Monday she will still be walking around free. Maybe Homan could take a few minutes between hopping around TV stations to flap his lips and deal with this twat? Or is that just too, too much to ask?

Yes. Dred Scott decision made it impossible for political branches to fix the problem. Judges are not and cannot be arbiters of policy because they suck royally at it. Legal and adversary training does little to actually develop management skills and so judges end up relying on special masters to do it which are unaccountable cat paws for the judges themselves. Every time judges, including the Supreme Court, wade into management decisions on policy, they end up making things worse.

E.g. are our urban schools better after having judges run them for nearly 40-50 years on deseg orders? Are our prisons and general public safer after judges have tried running prisons and jails? Etc. Etc.

I suspect the Pareto principle holds, and 20% of cops deal with 80% of the worst stuff.

423 Maybe missing some things but I thought TSLA revenue was 40% sales of tax credits? Fake tax credits for absurd climate/environmental nonsense. So, an entirely artificial "thing" being sold. This would amount to a massive, massive subsidy. And the subsidies that *have* gone away - and have they all, taking into account charging stations and de facto subsidy for uncompensated extra road wear-and-tear? - enabled the company to become first-mover in a small niche market, which is all it's ever going to be.

So not wound up about it, but seems to me that TSLA only exists in its dominant-for-niche form due to past subsidies, and still receives massive de facto subsidies from "sale" of ridiculous tax credits.

The anti-Elon, anti-DOGE, anti-Trump protests in D.C.? They aren’t grassroots. They are payroll-driven theater.

- Buses rolled in packed with hired protesters.
- Pre-made signs handed out assembly-line style.
- Scripts distributed to keep messaging “on brand.”
- Protesters all left at once—just like a shift change.

The protests are organized astroturf—NGO-backed, donor-funded, and as fake as their outrage.

They shouldn't shoot them, they should vote them out, but we know that will never happen.

430 I've begun to realize that's mostly just a marketing campaign, similar to teachers being underpaid. And eventually the teachers (and cops) begin to believe it.

I suspect the Pareto principle holds, and 20% of cops deal with 80% of the worst stuff. Drugs, molestations, etc. Yes the other 80% of cops will encounter someone with a stolen weedeater or get to stop a bad guy running a stop sign, but the ad campaign has influenced their thinking more than reality has.

Very true. Most counties, murders are rare occurrences but urban ones are the most dangerous. Changed a bit due to cartel operations in rural areas from what it used to be but those invaders are easily identified with a good federal government intent on law and order.

Any bullets fired after a Trump assassination will come from the left, not the right.

That's a fair point.

Though I can't imagine a world in which the Trump Administration orders the military to fire into protestors.

The next Democrat president, though, absolutely would.

440 A Chinese woman, who overstayed her VISA, commits suicide at detention center in AZ.
Pramila Jayapal is decrying why she wasn't checked on more, etc. One thing that Jayapal doesn't mention is that the woman and her partner where pulled over for a traffic stop and cops found $220K in cash and believe it to be linked to Fentanyl drug sales. She probably thought death was preferable over being returned to China. As far as detention center staff not conducting rounds more frequently maybe true and should be corrected but that has not been established as fact yet.

Several have called for arming yourselves, stocking the three Bs, becoming trained and proficient in skills that would matter in such times, and so on.

Working toward peaceful solutions while preparing for what may come is not advocating for "no shit, bloodbath civil war." It's just historically cognizant and prudent.

The "right" is not just this website. We've been fairly careful in wording things and the hotheads, including myself in the past, have excused themselves from posts rather than get banned, but don't say you haven't seen it unless this is the only webpage you visit on the right.
Barky's first term comes to mind.
IF the right were actually rash, they would've done something stupid around that time because of the sheer number of glowies pushing for it. When it didn't happen, they had to make it up for the press, like the militia in Mi that was going to take over the capital in DC, or the militia that was going to kidnap Witmer. All fake and gay.

442 But the best example by far was the Back the Blue march where antifa showed up and the cops let them through to beat up the old ladies marching to support law enforcement.

Cops, by and large, understand who is to be touched and who is not to be touched. Better to consider them as mercenaries rather than taking one side or another. Some ideologues exist in police forces but that depends on the locale and the socialization of officers--most are there for a job and not qualified to be firemen.

Speaking of cartels: listened this weekend to an interview with an expert (published and renowned newly-local doctor from Colorado Springs who specializes in pain management) on the dangers of marijuana -- legal and otherwise. Pretty scary ...

He notes that, in addition to Big Pharma and Big Tobacco, Cartels are heavily invested in that industry nationwide --- including those from China and Russia (these latter two surprised me).

Doping every day is no better than drinking every day and far too many dopers are on the road doing stupid shit where I live. The DUIs are mostly illegals nowadays.

If you want to do that shit stay at home until you sober up to drive on the road.

And no, people cannot drive stoned better than they can sober.

447 "Here we are almost 60 years later and we are reaping the poisoned seed he and his allies planted all those years ago. THey'd do us in in a heartbeat if they had the means and opportunity."

Yup. When you think about it, they seemed to be a radical fringe back then. I was a frat guy but I knew a lot of lefties at my college back in the early 70s. There was a lot of making fun of the other groups but typically only some random violence to speak of.

Sure, there were some hard core folks. But most of them were more interested in wearing the clothes that distinguished them back in that time, getting laid, experimenting with drugs, going to concerts, throwing frisbees on the quad, and blasting music from the AR speakers in their rooms.

There did not seem to be near as much of the angry and violent edge that is present today.

453 447 says the Left in the 70s didn't seem as violent as today. Disagree. I remember bomb after bomb being used by the Weatherman. Police being killed by the Black Panthers and other radicals. What is different is that todays Left is more sophisticated and destroys people through legal means rather than blackjacks, but remember a few years ago they, Antifa and BLM, were burning down cities. The Left are a violent, crazed lot. If you aren't prepared you will wind up in a camp.
