No shit Sherlock, that’s the whole point of Stochastic Terrorism—your adherents read between the lines and do your dirty work for you while your hands stay clean.
When your followers have a history of making violent threats against the people & organizations you point their attention towards, and you make no attempt to rein them in or change your own behavior, guess what? You’re complicit.
This entire comment is placing blame at the feet of someone you fully acknowledge has never called for nor encouraged violence in response to reposted public information. If stochastic terrorism is your defense, there are a literal endless amounts of accounts to blame for acts of violence and it a very long, shitty road to no actual progress on any front. It’s an avenue you’re currently in good-standing to use as a defense against ideas you disagree with, and it will not last long.
