For many on the Left, what most see as incendiary and violent rhetoric is simply contextualized as the necessary talk of social justice.
United States Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) hit the airwaves to connect the recent assault on Paul Pelosi with “fascism” and “white nationalism.” She insists that both are now ubiquitous. And both prompt increasing politically motivated violence. (Ocasio-Cortez remains oblivious to the greatest sustained political violence in our recent history; the 120 days of Black Lives Matter and Antifa-fueled rioting, arson, looting, and mayhem of summer and fall 2020—often cheered on or defended by public officials and social media.)
The deplorable violent attack on Pelosi, husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), has been described as the logical reification of increasing bitter political discourse. Shrill accusations spread even as full details of the attack are still not known. But the general picture of the assailant is one of an unhinged conspiracy freak of all flavors. He seems to have been a lunatic, drug-crazed white supremacist and anti-Semite, a former hemp jeweler, and nudist, who was either homeless or was living in a cluttered hippie-like commune in Berkeley plastered with pride and BLM flags.
Nonetheless, almost immediately the Left has seized on the attack to blame supposed right-wing political rhetoric as the cause.
As we enter the final week before the midterms and likely near-historic Democratic losses in Congress, this effort to manipulate violence in the news for last-minute political advantage will increase—but certainly it is not new.
In late October 2018, after the despicable mass lethal shooting of worshipers in the Pittsburgh Tree of Life synagogue, the Left immediately blamed Donald Trump and his supporters. That useful pre-midterm narrative insisted that Trump had provided the rhetorical fireworks that set off anti-Semite and conspiracy nut, Robert Gregory Bowers.

It looks like the Pelosi Attacker being a right-wing conspiracy theorist is just a leftist hoax, but I keep seeing it repeated, even on Fox News.
yep
Pelosi’s alleged assailant’s blog, filled with extreme right content has no record of ever existing before Oct 28 2022 per Wayback machine.
Second Rule of Woke World: Always take credit for anything good, even if it is only a fantasy.
Third Rule of Woke World: If nothing good has happened, make something up.
In reality, the left represents everything they say they are against when it comes to racism and fascist.
The Right always plays along. Even VDH. What’s so “deplorable” about the attack? It was Pelosi’s hammer.
Pay the hooker!
You can't start off a sentence like that. That's a macroaggression against people in Woke World.
There is no such thing as objective reality. If such a thing as reality even existed (which it doesn't), it would be a personal decision.;-)
Hey, I don’t know about you, but I have a few questions, some of which could be quickly answered with a House oversight committee deposing Paul Pelosi once he recovers and, just to be sure, sending a subpoena to Grindr.
The Woke are the most fun people to offend.
I am pissed that ANYONE would think that this bullchit story is to blame on the right.
And I am beginning to think that offending them and making fun of them may be the best way to burst their bubble.
Right. The Wokesters and Leftists, like the Devil, cannot stand to be mocked.
Yup.
Basic story: guy got hit by another guy. Probably in a tiff over a sexual encounter.
That’s a big yawn. Happens all the time. No one really cares. In many locations these days, it might not even be prosecuted.
OH! HANG ON! The guy who got hit is “important”????? Well, that changes everything!! That means our “other” layer of the justice system needs to kick into action. We need to bring out the “special justice” which is used when “important” people are involved either as victims or perpetrators.
And Step 1 of that “other” justice system is to blame the Republicans for whatever it is that just happened.
I forgot to ping you for VDH
Don Rickles would have had soooooo much fun with these Woke numbnuts,
It was a late night bar close homo hookup that went sideways. The old poofter brought home a nut.
I said it before ..the left..wether it’s the media..the FBi..or Biden..are not interested in reality.
They operate from a position of how they WISH the world was.
And that includes how they see themselves.
They do not follow rules ..mostly because they make up their own rules as they go.
That is how they can say one thing and a week later totally contradict themselves.
I’d apologize for my macroaggression but I never apologize.. it shows weakness!! ;-)
The Democrats are ALWAYS the first to be out there on the airwaves accusing the right of whatever violence happens in the country, be it this Paul Pelosi attack or some crazy person shoots up a school. They are the first to put out fake stories and blame the Republicans even knowing it is not true. When will the right have enough and start returning the favor? One of my big questions is, who charges phone in the bathroom? Just a little weird.
