I've heard it put as 'the left's violence is speech, the right's speech is violence'. Just another maddening aspect among hundreds more of the Clown World we live in.
The really maddening aspect is conservatives just sit back and take it like a battered wife. There's no excuse for why they've let the discourse shift so badly against them.
Because if we have to do it, If we have to get up and acknowledge the abuse, it doesn't end in divorce like a marriage. The police aren't going to take the abuser away and we don't get to start a happy new life in a new state. That leaves very few options left after we decide we aren't gonna take the abuse any longer.

Sure, but the response is long overdue at this point. Sustained endurance of the abuse is just admitting defeat.
