    Time to stop treating these very obviously right wing affiliated school shooters as long wolfs. They’re not lone. They’re part of a cell style right wing terrorist organization.

      Correct. With what modern insurgency looks like, the only reason we don’t call it a civil war is no one has struck them back. While I don’t believe civil war is a forgone conclusion, if the US does spiral into one I can guarentee Historians that study it will look back to a date well before 2025 as when it started.

        Stochastic terrorism is different from an organized civil war. These are not the actions of a united front but lone individuals who are encouraged to be violent with the people they are told to hate.

          are encouraged to be violent with the people they are told to hate.

          Encouraged by who? Told by who? The fact that the people doing the fighting don’t understand they’re part of an organization that is coordinating them to fight a civil war doesn’t change the fact that it’s an organized civil war.

            What organization? It’s literally hundreds of little echo chambers that spew variations of the same bullshit but distinct for their region, like sects of a religion. If one big organization is doing this it should be easy to point to them. Which one?

            It’s like criminal convincing homeless people to do their dirty work. Except it’s probably most orchestrated through social media.

        I mean, it really started with the founding of the country, leaving wealthy people in control of everything by having capitalism be the system of economics, but a more recent date can be 1973, when the Heritage Foundation was founded.
