Maybe it's not direct yet. And that's what makes me a little nervous about where this all could head.
If people are willing to hunt and cancel people without giving the accused a chance to even defend themselves (leading to reputation, job loss, etc), physical harm seems like the next logical step.
Meanwhile, protestors are now routinely being run over by actual physical automobiles driven by right-wing terrorists (https://www.npr.org/2020/06/21/880963592/vehicle-attacks-ris...). But sure, the hypothetical harm done at some future date by progressive-minded folks is far more concerning.
This sounds terrible. Can you provide some recent sources including proof of the drivers motivations?

I suppose you could say that being a kkk member, or shouting racist abuse at protestors before hitting the gas and plowing into them doesn’t count as proof of the drivers’ motivations, but, well, you would say that, wouldn’t you Chase?
