Donald Trump’s new security directive labels anti-capitalist beliefs as a predictor of political violence. The irony: left-wing structural analysis actually pushes people away from lone-wolf attacks and toward mass organizing for change.
Releasing the Epstein files is something that people on both the left and right can mostly agree on. Even a subset of MAGA want it.
On the other hand, killing protesters is disappointingly more of a partisan concern. Traditional Republicans probably wouldn’t approve, but MAGA has been brainwashed into supporting “retaliatory” violence against anyone left of them.
Pushing the Epstein files will, therefore, be more effective when trying to get people together.
