UNLEASHED: The Dark Impulse Driving Left Wing Violence

GAINESVILLE, FL. (UFCR) — A Colorado State University student named Piper Skalka, Piper Skalka, under the Twitter handle Rosy Boa (@RosyBoa823), ,has ignited widespread concern and demands for accountability with a series of X posts that not only advocate violence but explicitly condone the killing of individuals they broadly and loosely deem "Nazis," a label they apply expansively to conservatives, public figures, and even unrelated groups. This rhetoric, which has escalated over years, has prompted fears of real-world harm amid a polarized political environment.

The controversy intensified following a UF campus event hosted by College Republicans discussing American foreign policy in the Middle East, foreign interference, and violent left-wing rhetoric. Speakers included Rift TV CEO and journalist Elijah Schaffer, blogger Braeden Sorbo, Snowflake News head Michael Hennesy, and Australian political leader Auspill. Boa responded by branding Schaffer a "holocaust denier white supremacist" who "deserves way more than his event getting snubbed," a remark that is obviously a poorly veiled call for violence, aligning with their history of endorsing lethal action against their political enemies.

Boa’s posts reveal a disturbing pattern of escalation, beginning with hyperbolic accusations and progressing to overt advocacy for killing, arming themselves, and mocking deaths. They declared, "The civilized way to deal with Nazis is to kill them," a stance Boa has repeatedly invoked to justify violence.

This condoning of murder is tied to their loose definition of "Nazis," which they applied indiscriminately to silence opposition. For instance, Boa asserted "Nazis should be killed," while labeling prominent conservatives such as Schaffer, Elon Musk, and Jake Shields as Nazis—despite their denials and a lack of evidence tying them to Nazi ideology. They have extended this label to all conservatives, equating them with Nazis or Nazi-like behavior in multiple posts, such as accusing conservatives of "acting like the Nazis." 

This loose labeling is evident in their sweeping generalizations. Boa has accused conservatives of being "psychopaths,” and suggested that they "should feel scared actually. Maybe then they'll stop being so evil.” Even unrelated entities like government agencies (@ICEgov) and random elementary school students have been branded Nazis in their rhetoric, demonstrating how casually they wield the term to encompass anyone opposing their views, painting all conservatives as inherently aligned with extremism.

In July 2024, Boa announced, "I’m buying a gun. He won’t take my estrogen," amid vows to "fight as much as I can," raising red flags about self-arming for ideological conflicts. By 2025, their posts became more celebratory of violence, including a repost mocking conservative commentator Charlie Kirk’s death as "7 days Fentanyl free!" with a cake image.

Colorado State University officials have not responded to inquiries about disciplinary measures as of 4:30 p.m. MDT on Wednesday, October 15, 2025. These threats and violent rhetoric aren’t isolated to the events at UF; they echo a national trend that has made political violence an increasingly familiar headline. Across America, the far-left fringe has grown bolder in both language and action, emboldened by the leftist base’s unwillingness to condemn, disavow, or do anything besides continue to support their violent associates. What we’re seeing isn’t just anger; it’s the rapid legitimization of force as a political language. Consider Jay Jones, whose leaked texts allowed us a glimpse into the shocking violent fantasies harbored by many on the left.

Mr. Jones repeatedly fantasized about shooting the then-House Speaker of Virginia, Todd Gilbert, “Pissing on the graves” of other Republicans, called Gilbert’s children “Little fascists” and expressed hope that the children would die. When his remarks drew criticism from the right, his donor base remained intact and his institutional supporters stayed silent. No loss of funding, no loss of status, just applause from those who see fury as authenticity. That silence from donors and allies signals something deeper than hypocrisy: that Jay Jones is not alone in his views. When aggression or aggressive rhetoric is rewarded, it ceases to be taboo. Meanwhile, the slogan “silence is violence” has become a moral cudgel for the left, used to intimidate centrists and the apolitical into carrying water for the far left and their agenda. On its face, it’s a call for empathy, but in practice, it’s become a pretext for coercion. 

That coercion corrosionis further visible in the nation’s most violent political moments in recent memory. The attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania reminded Americans that heated rhetoric breeds real-world consequences. Another assassination attempt shortly after was thankfully stopped by law enforcement, leading to the subsequent arrest of Ryan Routh, reportedly motivated by political hatred, underscoring that the problem isn’t just isolated individuals, it’s a climate that romanticizes “stopping fascism” by any means necessary. And when the left can’t quite seem to settle on a solid definition for fascism beyond “thing I don’t like,” you reach a point where one side of the political spectrum is willing and eager to commit violent acts against anyone they deem a threat.

This willingness to use violence was unfortunately on full display with the assassination of Charlie Kirk by a radical leftist, a tragedy that should have united every decent person in condemnation. Instead, leftist social media lit up with mockery and celebration. Prominent accounts that would normally decry violence stayed conspicuously silent or hinted that the victim had “brought it on himself.” simply for expressing base-level conservative ideals. 

In recent months, the University of Florida and the nation at large have seen a troubling rise in intimidation, vandalism, and outright political violence. That danger has touched our own campus, reflecting a worrying wider national trend of left-wing extremism.

Our event with RiftTv became a reminder of how fragile speech has become at UF, or any university for that matter. This constant suppression shows how narrow the window for acceptable thought has grown. And that window is closing not through debate, but through fear.

The rot at the core of this problem isn’t disagreement, it’s the normalization of threat. Too many people, both on and off campus, have grown comfortable with the idea that intimidation is a legitimate political tool. When institutions decline to defend those they disagree with, they invite further hostility. And that comfort with hostility left unchecked is how political division becomes violence, as we saw with the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk.

 Young Republicans, who are witnessing the intensification of division on their campus, are beginning to feel a growing sense of dread and worry over the political antagonism that is occurring. For example, during a peaceful vigil for Charlie Kirk, socialist agitators appeared, looking to disrupt the vigil and disrespect Charlie’s memory. Their willingness to engage in such disruptive behavior speaks volumes to how comfortable the campus (and wider) left is with engaging in antisocial activity.

 They vandalized a Charlie Kirk monument, defaced and ripped down our posters, and most concerningly, they issued death threats against us. What happens next? Real violence?

The pattern is unmistakable: Escalation. We can already predict how this ends if the cycle continues. Today’s graffiti becomes tomorrow’s broken window. Tomorrow’s threat becomes next year’s tragedy. 

The same movement claiming that neutrality is complicity uses chaos and harassment to silence opposition. It’s an inversion of moral logic: claiming to defend peace while practicing suppression. There’s nothing “progressive” about threatening people into conformity, and there’s nothing empathetic about wishing death on your opponent’s children. This double standard of condemning symbolic gestures and private expression from the right and hiding behind “progressive” morals that these leftists don’t really believe in, while excusing physical aggression from the left, has eroded public trust. It’s why an increasing number of Americans, including moderate Democrats, now admit that the culture of “resistance” has turned into a culture of menace. In such a culture, where escalation and violent rhetoric are ever-increasing, people must ask themselves, “Am I next?”

Disclaimer: A handful of left-leaning students, along with several leftists on the national level, have publicly condemned extremist actions. We recognize and appreciate that courage. Their voices prove that principle still exists on every side.
