The coastal press is more in line with the progressives, though it is not like the conservatives are lacking for a voice.  Also, violence is so Industrial Age unless you are talking about the sort of protests that came in the 1960s awakening.

The elites are not uniformly on the left.  The coastal press is leftist, but Fox is controlled by the conservative elites, not by the populists on the right.

Violence is a constant throughout history.  That said, it might take different forms.  Is purposely spreading Covid-19 a form of violence?  That's starting to be done, albeit in a limited way.  If the populists can kill off everyone over 70, they'll have taken care of the majority of the elites.
