I just don't see how they're supposed to control it
It's easy. Think of it like distillation. If you control the media, you raise the temperature just enough that the volatile compounds start to go off but the stable ones don't. More of the left is composed of loons than the left. And the the right is more likely to value rule of law and order. That's why they're on the right to begin with.
Soros has been enemy #1 of the right for decades. Quite possibly had more rhetoric aimed against him than any other figure. I remember a single assassination attempt: that guy who spammed pipe bombs by mail in 2018.
Make no mistake, the media is trying to make this shooting into a "moment" and the goal is killing anyone the left sees as enemies. They might lose one or two, but the violence would be massively disproportionate.
As a side note, consider the prevalence of preppers on the far right. They're willing to take action but only once order has completely broken down, so they fantasize about that scenario.

Thank God there's still some intelligent people on this forum
