The frequent targeting of U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi by online extremists and political opponents likely contributed to the violent attack on her husband Paul, terrorism and extremism experts said.
Le fait que la présidente de la Chambre des représentants des États-Unis, Nancy Pelosi, soit souvent prise pour cible par des extrémistes en ligne et des opposants politiques a probablement contribué à la violente attaque contre son mari Paul, selon des experts en terrorisme et en extrémisme.
@EricVandal Of course, conversely MTG's swatting is also politically motivated, the politicians have gone too far with their "vitriol" is good campaign and the people who still think the election was stolen are in a great position to improve their hand, fun times.
@MidnightRider some believe it could be an example of the growing threat of so-called stochastic terrorism, in which sometimes unstable individuals are inspired to violence by hate speech and scenarios they see online and hear echoed by public figures.
@EricVandal Feels like a description of our reality more than a hypothesis. The GOP not calling out law breaking and the government not enforcing laws upon people of position and power seems like a recipe for exceptionally grim decay and our society is already "out of my way, it's a busy day" as Pink Floyd noted.
