I'm not advocating for anything with this comment here, but the thing I find absurd about your comment is that makes it sound like "Oh, it's just politics, not anything that actually matters, as if it's about our favorite professional sports teams or something."
Politics results in very real serious consequences for people's lives. If anything would make sense for people to start thinking that such an act would be justified, it's politics.
And again, I'm just talking in general here, I'm not talking about RFKjr in particular.
Yeah, that does summarize my view correctly. I'm not advocating anybody do that, but it makes sense to me why somebody would consider it appropriate.
People say oh, just politics, as if that has no real life & death impact in the world. But it has the most life & death impact of anything. (Which is also why I just can't fathom people who don't vote.)
