No, I am not good with those definitions, I am not your friend, and I am not cool with the gaslighting.

The Definition of Structural Violence Originally coined in 1969, the term structural violence refers to a form of violence where one or several social structures or institutions harm people by preventing them from meeting their basic needs.

The structures in question include social, economic, and political systems that create disadvantages and risks for certain populations.

Structural violence perpetuates health inequalities and contributes to higher mortality rates in vulnerable populations. Unsurprisingly, the theories surrounding structural violence are closely linked to the social determinants of health.

Structural violence does not exist in a vacuum: it is created through persistent violence across communities and institutions. In the trauma-informed model, we view structural violence as the culmination of other types of social violence in order to explore the power we have to challenge structural violence across every level.

Individual Violence - Individual violence includes acts of social discrimination, which can be physical or emotional

Individual violence refers to specific moments of violence between individuals. We can think of individual violence as “violence that harms an individual.”

Community Violence- When we look at instances of individual violence on a larger scale, we can see how it develops into community violence. We can similarly think of community violence as “violence that harms a community.” Community violence happens when a community is exposed to intentional acts of interpersonal violence, such as sexual assaults, gang violence, or public shootings. These acts of violence can happen suddenly, or they may be anticipated.

Institutional Violence- The next level is institutional violence, where institutions possess organizational traits which:

• are inherently violence
• promote moral abandonment
• normalize structural oppression

Systemic Violence- Institutional violence leads to systemic violence. Systemic violence encompasses the inequalities and continued or worsened disadvantages to marginalized populations through social customs or official policies. Systemic violence is worsened when those in power limit the power or potential of oppressed groups. They may do this intentionally or unintentionally, but the impact remains the same

Structural Violence - Built upon and surrounding all of these forms of violence is structural violence, where social structures, institutions, and policies do harm through the prevention of basic needs and social exclusion.

Structural violence occurs when inequity is perpetuated through discriminatory beliefs and power structures, such as racism, ableism, sexism, etc.

We can see Charlie actually enacted violence at every level through his speech. That also makes him an extremist, along with targetting multiple groups with his violence and organizing and pushing hate campaigns and doxxing campaigns.

Charlie Kirk himself directed his followers to doxx and harass professors per the first link in that section, which is victim testimony, which they carried on after his death. The Spain professor (3rd link) was being harassed WAY before he died. Bob Ross’s fans don’t struggle with doxxing and harassing professors. Jane Goodall’s fans - nope. Not Steve Irwin’s fans either even though he died somewhat as expected like how Charlie did (eg guy who messes with dangerous animals dies by a dangerous animal; guy who advocates for shooting people dies getting shot).

Those quotes were violent and racist, I have seen them in full context and they are actually WORSE in context. “But some black people are sad he died,” is racist af by you as a rebuttal by the way.

We are not of the same opinion. I am not like you. Don’t project.

his ‘all life is sacred’ stance on abortion is run of the mill in those circles

That might be. But it doesn’t mean it isn’t also violent. If your political stance on an issue can be directly traced to people dying, that’s violence. Any definition of violence which does not account for that is manifestly inadequate. (Note that I am only giving a sufficient condition here, and not a necessary one.)

Women who cannot receive access to proper medical treatment because of extremist evangelical laws restricting abortion die all the time. That’s violence.
