The public perception of the Assassination of the UHC CEO and how it informs Political Discourse

I wanted to provide a space for discussion about the public reception of the recent assassination of Brian Thompson. This isn't meant as a discussion of the assassination itself so much as the public response to it. I can't recall a time where a murder was so celebrated in US discourse.

to mods that might remove this post - I pose this question to this sub specifically because I think there is a cultural force behind this assassination and it's reception on both sides of the political spectrum that we do not see expressed often. I think this sub will take the question seriously and it's one of the only places on the internet that will.

What are your thoughts on the public discourse at this time? Is there a heightened appetite for class or political violence now and is it a break from the past decades?
