Pretty sure everyone with 2 brain cells knows the motive. Maga traitors did it.

Likely, however, Zionists also don’t like him right now. A high-profile popular Jewish politician speaking out against Israel’s actions in Gaza? Yeah, there’s a lot of high emotions there and he’s probably made some more crazy enemies. Right now, I’m 50/50 on which one of these two it might be.

The timing is what made me lean toward a zionist, since it comes directly on the heels of him telling Netanyahu to quit murdering innocent people. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a MAGAt, but I haven't seen anything outside of what he normally does that would've particularly triggered one of them.

Party of law and order!

That is the obvious answer, but until the investigation is completed and a suspect is arrested and charged, people making official statements need to choose their words carefully.

If it is, they're gonna get a slap on the wrist like the January 6th insurrections. Once their attempted murder becomes political, they're afraid to look tough on them out of fear of being called politically motivated, which is stupid.

If anything, political motives for a crime should be far more harsh.

I read on reddit that they police have to be absurdly cautious about ascribing motive before trial to the media. That it can break a case.

But yeah we all know what the motive was.

That's exactly what is happening in this statement.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Cops investigating so they obviously have no idea.

motive is unclear

looks at US politics

Is it?

I guess it could be a number of progressive things he has sided on over the years, but it happened now so yeah

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago

He is very often demonized in conservative circles, I suspect simply because he utters the s word ("socialism").

Yes lol. Do they hate that he's Jewish? Or that he's anti-Zionist? Or maybe they hate socialism? There's a lot for shitty people to hate about Sanders

Is “Republican” a motive?

Can… can it be one? Please?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

i would venture that the motive is likely, almost certainly. Political.
