Calling for violence is speech and sure as shit leads to violence. In fact if we want to be intellectually honest speech should be recognized as a legitimate form of violence. If you ever decide to do violence you’re going to be a lot more effective if you have a mob at your back. To be clear I’m not calling for mob violence. I’m Just being intellectually honest. Speech is an effective tool in the execution of violence. Whatever else your politics we can all agree that “Go to the capital and fight like hell” led to a mob attacking, entering and committing violence at the capital. It was certainly more effective than the speaker showing up personally with his fists up. Was the speech itself violence? No. Did it directly encourage violence and then that violence happened? Yes. In that sense was it an effective orchestration of violence? Yep.
