“He cited what he termed the “Mangione effect,” in which individuals latch onto a grievance, find validation online, and come to see violent action as justified.”


Individuals don’t “latch onto a grievance” by themselves, somebody, something encourage them to do that. And they don’t need to find “validation online”, they find validation everywhere, from the local and national news to their teachers to their preferred leftist politicians to the late night comedy shows.

The diversion and euphemisms used to avoid talking about the real instigators (Democrats and their lapdog the media, learning institutions, the assassination culture of the left...) is disgusting.

“ the real instigators (Democrats and their lapdog the media, learning institutions, the assassination culture of the left...) is disgusting.”

A new term which I just learned last night is “Stochastic terrorist”. It describes the Dems in DC and their willing accomplices in the propaganda media.
