Our work of sharing self-development is to help make sure you continue to move toward love and less toward fear and hate. Or to say that more philosophically, less a part of the Empire - which is a movement of assimilation or slavery or death. And we're very transparent in saying that in the United States the lion’s share of its Empire comes from the rightward side of the house, the old confederacy, who with all their disparaging of the government working for working people, turns their version of "gov mint" over to American robber baron criminal oligarchs - who, along with Israeli and Russian Oligarchs that co-fund it, want the working people in-fighting, which is called divide and conquer. As that's the whole point of conservative media.
The contemporary vector of that oligarchic grift money fueled media is regressivism - as everything is about going backward. To channel the spirit of the Wild West founding when violence was sanctioned and sanctified in the birth story of the Republic. So to the backwards mind, to speak violently is to speak authentically. Now, in 2025 we had a key propagandist co-member of such media and co-member of their end times death cult die, and before even knowing who did the killing, the cult was calling for more death. And since it thrives on outrage the fear based gun culture rhetorical lie machine ecco chamber results in cultists all trying to out hypocrasize themselves via an atmosphere of embattlement. Presenting the world as a zero-sum struggle, a war of “real Americans” against shadowy others - immigrants, intellectuals, bureaucrats, globalists, thinkers, non-oligarchic ball garglers, multiculturalists, religions actually coexisting in harmony, etc... That multiethnic, multicultural, multi-religious community, which they call "The left", for all its challenges, problems, struggles, and rhetoric of revolution for the people, tends toward protest action and its disruptions can be irritating but rarely lethal and within said groups, violence is overwhelmingly denounced. But for however many progressives in that camp that slip through and celebrate a killing, you'll find 1000x more regressives doing so because for them violence supposedly becomes not only permissible but virtuous, and is viewed as a defense of civilization against decay. And since their cult is based on projection, inversion, and confession the opposite is true - as they are the primary group in a devolutionary decay.
For example, around 80%+ of shooters all fit the same profile - internet radicalized slep fascistic white males that have spent way too much time in the darker corners of the internet, who are in some variation of theocratic end times cults such as Mormonism which thrive on guilt and shame, not to mention sexual repression - as one of the incubating factors to fascism is based on sexual insecurity, they nurture a fetish for weaponry cause they are their dark falices. But beneath their BBK's they wish they had is a deeper psychological crisis. The right-wing fascination with violence is a symptom of their unprocessed grief. The world they thought they owned—the stable hierarchies of race, gender, religion—is dissolving before their eyes. Instead of mourning that passing and seeking renewal, they mythologize it as a battle to the death. The violent word becomes a spell against the chaos of change, a way of insisting that the old cowboy order is still alive.
The real antidote lies not in counter violence, which only fuels the paranoia, but in each of us in the pro-democratic majority continuing to become active - speaking out, acting and participating locally, engaging in non-violent civil disobedience, which is as American as apple pie, and the general sharing of better ideas to continue the construction of a richer cultural story. One where strength is measured in resilience. The right-wing obsession with violent speech is a symptom of it's spiritual impoverishment because virtually all of them are in these not only sexually repressed but also spiritually bereft perverted supremacist cults which are just factories of hate. And until they address that poverty, until they are offered alternative visions of belonging and purpose that are more compelling than their fantasies of civil war, the war will continue to be in their own minds.
