Colin Jost's look of contempt and incredulity is both cringe-inducing and beautiful to see because it's a sign that the ruling class is losing the narrative.

Yea it's more the media coverage of the event that is stirring class consciousness than the assassination.
If the cops and MSM had just shut up about it and treated it like any other shooting people would have shrugged and moved on.
Instead they are stuck in a feedback loop of obviously defending capital owners and pushing back on how the public feels which garners attention and gets more people talking about it which leads to them having to cover it again.
That's a really good point. I actually thought the best way they had to take the air out of the situation was to say it was a professional hit and had nothing to do with with getting revenge for obvious reasons. People would still hate that CEO. But now they've got a bona-fide folk hero (whether he actually did it or is a patsy)
