Excellent piece. I may not be fully able to articulate the “what” of your closing question, but the “how” is crystal clear: the right wing media machine stokes fear of the left and other out groups by activating the amygdala; convince people their way of life is at stake & that they must become soldiers to defend it; put lethal weapons into their hands; sow chaos & fear.
