    Eventually we're going to start needing to frame these mass shootings as part of a low-grade, unofficial civil war, and our discourse that follows can no longer merely be about gun control.

        The civil war never ended for a lot of people. That's not speculation or hyperbole, it's what they've been happily telling everyone and anyone who'll listen.

        How do you think we manage that framing? I'm thinking about how the term "war" has been devalued - war on christmas and so on, combined with the antiseptic language that's to talk about real war - conflict, action, operation, so on.

        I guess what I'm asking is how do we describe what's happening in language when words have lost so much meaning?

        In fairness since the invention of nuke traditional warfare between nation state has been dead so even in world less alergic to meaning "War" alone wouldn't fit so I guess "hybrid civil war" could be way to define it.

        You know how in the 70s, there were a lot of bombings to go along with the civil unrest? I think that's what mass shootings are in 2018. They are the violent symptoms of a sick polity, and we need to start thinking about them as inherently political acts.

        like many terrorist organizations, white nationalists realized that being centralized made them too easy to target. this is why we see loosely-affiliated groups putting together general blueprints for attacks and general targets, which can then be acted on by "lone wolves."

        It's the latest casualties of a culture war that's been going on since 1492.

        We arleady have total mass shooter casualties that surpass actual line of duty military deaths. We are already at war. Alt-right white males are the Taliban here. They are driven by a cult mentality, religious extremes & have easy acces to guns.

        I think the present term is 'stochastic terrorism'.

        I've kind of seen this coming for a while. An out and out civil war seems very unlikely, but small, "independent" proxy conflicts that have long lasting ramifications that, when added up, could be the meat of any change brought on by a civil war? A lot easier to believe.

        Would the indirect incitement to random violence, and the nature of the violence itself, be captured by the term “stochastic terrorism”?

        Well on the upside you could probably get the NRA to come on board because people have to arm themselves for civil wars and you're not going after gun control
