Eh, that lady that was straight up executed in her car in Minnesota was targeted because they knew she was involved in following and identifying their vehicles. The nurse who was killed? He had a legally carried firearm; he never reached for it, but as soon as it was found, the situation was escalated and he was killed.
It's not hyperbole that they are "disappearing dissidents" when protesters are being executed in public. And he's not even the first that they've snatched outside of that specific center. I wish it was hyperbole. I really do.
Edit: Regarding my own "doomerism" tone, I don't pretend to know how we're gonna fix this; I just believe we need to be honest about what's happening. I don't think we can find a solution to a problem that we can't acknowledge.
