Wasn’t that assumed because of the family, but he actually turned left?
Utah County prosecutor Jeffrey Gray said that Robinson’s mother told investigators that her son had become more political over the last year and had started to “lean more to the left, becoming more pro-gay and trans rights–oriented”.
My hypothesis is that the reason we’ve been seeing a lot of significant assassination attempts come from people who had been far right but are recently disillusioned or having a leftward turn is that the right has been priming and training itself for political violence for years (since about Ruby Ridge and Waco) and been engaged in the behavior they’re justifying their training and rhetoric by saying they need to violently stop governments from acting this way. So you have people ready to do violence, prepared to stop overreaching or totalitarian governments, and when these people stop being blinded by the propaganda, they start to see that behavior in their party and the ones who were actually ready to do violence do it.

Fair enough.
This does not support my hypothesis
