It can. But it’s not up to the protesters to decide if it gets worse. It’s up to the protesters to decide if the result of it getting worse is Tankman in Tiananmen Square, or Lexington and Concord.

This is why they do it. They know that liberals will let them. After Ruby Ridge the feds back off right wingers because they knew that they would shoot back.

“Without immediate calamity” bullshit. Historians will look back on late February/ early March 2025 as US’s Suez Crisis. The moment when the US gave up on being the leader of the free world.

Charlie Kirk and his ilk would kill you if they thought they could get away with it. You as an individual Ezra Klein. The fact that your response to his death is anything other than: “man who lies down with dogs dies of flea borne illness” is at best embarrassing for you, and at worst dangerous.

Bad take. Loads of times when political violence isn’t wrong. The (whatever color) pill of political history is that changes for the better often come though violence (the US Civil War and the abolition of slavery) or the threat of violence (the revolutions of 1830 and the Reform Bill of 1832)

1) None of that is an accurate description of this war.
