Payton Gendron’s brutal and vile attack that killed 10 people is the direct result of the racist and xenophobic rhetoric espoused by right-wing talking heads. In the years since Donald Trump’s presidency, we’ve seen growing incidents of white supremacist attacks motivated by conspiracy theories peddled by prominent far-right figures.
During a time of national tragedy, Democrats and others in the liberal media are trying to pin the tragedy on their political opponents. Not only is it vile to exploit a national tragedy like this, but it is also factually incorrect, as the shooter’s manifesto rejected conservatism and its ideas.
