Democrats are increasingly leaning toward terrorism and becoming a danger to this country, a new study reveals.
According to the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), more average Democrats than ever are rationalizing political violence and celebrating others who push for it.
Per PJ Media:
“What was formerly taboo culturally has become acceptable,” Joel Finkelstein, the founder of NCRI, told Fox News Digital. “We are seeing a clear shift – glorification, increased attempts and changing norms – all converging into what we define as ‘assassination culture.’”
The NCRI study links this cultural shift to the December 2024 assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione. In the aftermath, researchers observed a disturbing surge of viral memes glorifying Mangione, which effectively turned him into a folk hero among certain corners of the internet. As a result, there has been a surge of copycat behavior targeting wealthy and conservative public figures.
“It’s not just Luigi anymore,” Finkelstein, the lead author of the report, explained. “We’re seeing an expansion: Trump, Musk and others are now being openly discussed as legitimate targets, often cloaked in meme culture and gamified online dialogue.”
According to the report:
NCRI conducted a nationally representative survey of more than 1,200 U.S. adults, weighted to reflect national census demographics. The findings were stark: Some 38% of respondents said it would be at least “somewhat justified” to murder Donald Trump, and 31% said the same about Elon Musk.
When counting only left-leaning respondents, justification for killing Trump rose to 55% and Musk to 48%.
When asked whether destroying a Tesla dealership was justified, nearly four in 10 respondents agreed it was, to some degree. Among self-identified left-of-center participants, support for vandalism and property damage was significantly higher.
Sadly, this is all no surprise.
Democrats are a danger to this country. Not just the party leadership, but all the way down to every last, violent, hate-filled, anti-American voter. They are all dangerous monsters. All of them. ALL of them. Every. Single. One. Of. Them.
