    The basis of modern conservatism is dishonesty. and violence.

    Not a question of if, but when they will start acting on it.

    ------------------------------------------------------

    While speaking at a Turing Point USA event, Charlie Kirk was asked when “we get to use the guns” to “kill these people” over baseless election fraud claims.

    Kirk spoke at Boise State University on Monday night as part of his Exposing Critical Racism tour, during which he condemned critical race theory and pushed false claims of voter fraud.

    Roughly one hour and 12 minutes into the event, Kirk was asked something the audience member himself deemed “a bit out of the ordinary.”

    “At this point, we’re living under corporate and medical fascism. This is tyranny. When do we get to use the guns? No, and I’m not — that’s not a joke,” asked the audience member. “I’m not saying it like that. I mean, literally, where’s the line? How many elections are they going to steal before we kill these people?”

    They make a lot of money telling the rubes what they want to hear, and don't care about the consequences.

    Reckless and irresponsible lying to your fellow rubes to make money will inevitably tip one of you self-radicalizing nutbars over the edge.

    Jan 6 was mild sauce compared to some of the grumbling I have seen. these people are echoing a lot of the violent rhetoric of ISIS when it comes to striking at their perceived enemies. Just as ISIS was a natural and more violent version of Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. We are seeing a slow radicalization of the tea party crowd that continues apace, fueled by the right-wing propaganda machines relentless drive for outrage to get clicks and eyeballs on advertisements.

    Historical authoritarian regimes or rulers have cemented their power by pointing to non-existing violence from their opponents, argues Matthew Lenoe, associate professor of history and the immediate past chair of the University of Rochester’s history department. His opinion piece appears today in the Washington Post’s “Made by History” section, which is edited and curated by historians.

    Lenoe points to a recent address to evangelical leaders in which President Donald Trump warned that Democrats will resort to force if they win the midterm elections: “They will overturn everything we’ve done and they will do it quickly and violently,” Trump said in his address. Lenoe posits that the storyline of a “wave of left-wing terrorism threatening America is wrong,” adding that “the real threat of violence comes from the right.”

    Lenoe marshalls data from the Anti-Defamation League’s Center on Extremism, which shows right-wing extremists and white supremacists were responsible for 74 percent of the murders committed by political extremists in this country, compared to 2 percent committed by left-wing radicals.

    So a random audience member asked a question and somehow that fringe example is where you think the median lies for conservatives.

    I mean, many of you applauded the killing of an unarmed woman by someone using a gun. Why so serious now?

    Sure you weren't, because there were so many other prominent libs who were talking about beheadings.

    Senior Airman Babbitt (then McEntee), Security Forces controller?

    Who was breaking into a secured portion of the US Capitol and killed by an officer protecting US officials?

    No problem with that. She knew what she was doing and what risks she was assuming.

    the "unarmed woman" narrative is paternalistic bull and insulting to Ashli Babbitt. she was a trained warrior -- multiply deployed in warzones abroad, BTW -- attacking the US Capitol, trying to stop certification of a US election.

    Ashli Babbitt trained security forces in warzones. She wasn't a parade poster waving a placard.
