Stochastic terrorism is political violence that has been instigated by hostile public rhetoric which is directed at a group or an individual. Unlike incitement to terrorism, stochastic terrorism is accomplished by using indirect, vague, or coded language that allows the instigator to plausibly disclaim responsibility for the resulting violence.[1] A key element is the use of social media and other distributed forms of communications where the person who carries out the violence has no direct connection to the users of violent rhetoric.[2]

Sorry to hear about Springfield under attack by Trump and his terror organization. You get to be close to it all.
They do this because they know they can't win in a fair fight. And this is in their tool chest because they have EXTREMELY loyal supporters who wll do their bidding.

Logic won't work on them.
The only cure is to vote them out of office.

Are the Haitians going to vote for Kamala?
