It argues that years of political correctness and reluctance to address issues like left-wing violence, crimes involving transgender individuals, and black-on-white crime are coming to an end. Pollsters note a growing willingness among the public, especially on the political right, to <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >openly discuss previously taboo subjects<\/a>, signaling a backlash against liberal ideologies and political correctness.<\/p>\n<p>Experts cited in the article suggest that these killings have awakened conservative voters and could catalyze a broader movement akin to the civil rights era, with increased calls to confront left-wing hate speech and violence. The piece highlights views warning that liberal ideologies promoting cultural changes are seen by some conservatives as leading inevitably to violence and societal decay.<\/p>\n<p>the article underscores concerns about an &#8220;assassination culture&#8221; purportedly spreading among the political left, pointing to social media rhetoric supporting violence against prominent conservatives. the piece conveys that the political landscape is undergoing a profound conversion, with conservatives feeling empowered to challenge what they perceive as harmful leftist agendas and with political correctness losing its hold on public conversation. <br \/> <!DOCTYPE html><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Charlie Kirk and Charlotte slayings ending political correctness<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2227202\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Years of looking the other way at Left on Right violence, excusing shootings by mentally disturbed transgender assailants, and shrugging off black on white crime may be ending with the assassinations of conservative political activist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/3803227\/fbi-photo-person-of-interest-charlie-kirk-killing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Charlie Kirk<\/a> and Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska.<\/p>\n<p>Fed up with being victims and the political correctness that required silence, pollsters are finding that more are speaking out, and the killings signaled the start of a massive blowback.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\/3801136\/new-warning-chinese-student-espionage-costs-us-600-billion\/\">New warning about Chinese student &lsquo;espionage,&rsquo; which costs US $600 billion<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\/3799261\/gen-z-and-millennials-would-seize-excess-wealth-for-themselves\/\">Gen Z and millennials would seize &lsquo;excess wealth&rsquo; for themselves<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/washington-secrets\/3798383\/collectors-eye-impossibly-rare-bottle-of-hitler-bordeaux\/\">Collectors eye &lsquo;impossibly rare&rsquo; bottle of Hitler&rsquo;s Bordeaux<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;I think what happens is people get complacent, they get comfortable, and then things get bad, and so people are called to action,&rdquo; said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/rasmussen-reports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rasmussen Reports<\/a> pollster Mark Mitchell.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Imagine people out there talking about a new &lsquo;white lives matter&rsquo; movement,&rdquo; he said.
