Because Charlie Kirk was political; his murder will inevitably lead to fault finding between left and right. Very interesting research in 2023 By Pysch's Chris Petsko and Nour Kteily uncovered some real differences between the left and right.
Conservatives veiw liberals as immature, irresponsible, gullible and irrational. Liberals see conservatives as savage, aggresive, coldhearted and barbaric.
Conclusions were, conservatives underestimated how much liberals dehumanised them, leading to higher levels of rage against them than they believed. Liberals overestimated how disrespected and dehumanised they were by conservatives raising frustration and anger.
Sad that one person who sought communication was a victim of an over reaction to a feeling of being disrepected
