Left-wing media do not consider their political narratives dangerous
< < Go Back
Even after the first assassination attempt, Joy Reid was blaming Trump. Going back to the 2016 election, Reid says their were men with long guns parading in front of her position in Arizona in 2016 specifically to intimidate her. She forgets that during Obama’s term, in Philadelphia, BLM gangs were parading with firearms in front of a polling place. And, AG Holder said that was not intimidation.

Notice how the left excuses their inciting rhetoric in the following quote:
In the wake of Sunday’s apparent assassination attempt, the Republican candidate is already on the offensive and pointing fingers without regard for evidence or propriety. Less than 24 hours after the alleged would-be shooter was taken into custody, Trump told Fox News Digital that the suspect “acted” on “highly inflammatory language” of Democrats.
People on the right do say that Democrats want to destroy our country and are destroying our country. Such language should be moderated for sure. But, ‘without evidence’ seems to only affect accusations from the right. By the way, there is mountains of evidence. When they say Trump is an existential threat to democracy, is Hitler, has endorsed an authoritarian-style vision for our country, and there will be no more elections after his election, thee media say they have no evidence for this. These are just political narratives, and very dangerous ones at that. The truth is the left’s actions and policies are the threats to democracy, but when he calls the left & the media on this, they claim he is the one that is using inflaming rhetoric.The media then spins Trump’s statements, like ‘bloodbath’, into different meanings to fit their preferred narratives. But, why, when the left uses the same and worse language, like Trump must be stopped, we have got to put a bullet in him, is that not considered inflamatory? Would the left and the media ever allow a Republican to get away with saying that? Of course not.
Free speech is the first thing taken away in authoritarian regimes.
The White House, two days after the 2nd assassination attempt, calls Trump a ‘threat’.
Columnist David Marcus joined ‘Fox & Friends’ to discuss the potential impact of rhetoric labeling former President Trump as a ‘threat’ to Democracy.
Marcus says the left has normalized assassination attempts. When he was in Ohio & Pennsylvania, locals told him they were not surprised at the assassination attempts.
