Assassination chic: Survey shows majority of progressives say political violence justified | The College Fix

The ‘peace, tolerance, and love’ folks are charlatans - Dave Huber 

A new survey shows that over half of self-identified progressives believe “at least somewhat” that killing President Trump is a justifiable action.
The report by the Network Contagion Research Institute and Rutgers University Social Perception Lab notes that after the first Trump assassination attempt last July, “tolerance – and even advocacy – for political violence appears to have surged, especially among politically left-leaning segments of the population.”...
Specific findings of the report include:

• — Almost 50 percent of “left-of-center” respondents said murdering Elon Musk was at least “partially justifiable.”
• — Over 57 percent agreed at least somewhat that destruction of Tesla dealerships is a legitimate action.
• — The “strongest predictors” of violence towards Musk are “far-left political identity” and “left-wing authoritarianism.”
• — Time spent on the social media platform BlueSky also is a “significant predictor” of justifying violence.
