Several injured after UAW strikers hit by vehicle
I get frustrated by average things, like the kids not closing cupboard doors or leaving their stuff everywhere. I have yet to run over anyone due to these average frustrations.
The person at the UAW picket was not dealing with average frustrations, they were a terrorist.
Stochastic terrorism is the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act, which is statistically probable but whose specifics cannot be predicted.[1] Dehumanizing a targeted group or individual in a way that could incite violence[2] may also provide plausible deniability for the instigator.[3] Since 2018, it has been used to analyze possible inspirations of lone wolf attacks.[4] Sociologist Ramón Spaaij worries the increasing prevalence of this type of rhetoric in the discourse will lead to more political violence.[5]
