Leftist darling and gun control advocate David Hogg is trying to coin a new progressive buzzword, and it’s not going that great.
On Monday, he decided to accuse Republicans of basically being terrorists over the Colorado gay nightclub shooting. Unfortunately for him though, not everyone was impressed by his ability to make up things that sound good.
Hey journalists- what republicans are engaged in has a name. It is called stochastic terrorism.

“Stochastic” is defined by the dictionary as “randomly determined; having a random probability distribution or pattern that may be analyzed statistically but may not be predicted precisely.”
It’s not entirely clear why Hogg thinks this term applies to the GOP or has anything to do with the horrifying events of that night, but some suspect he just wanted to show off the big word he just learned:

Looks like someone has been using his word of the day calendar.

You just find that memo that went out six months ago with this talking point behind the dresser, David?

I see they pushed out a new firmware for the NPCs. Adds stochastic to the dictionary.

That’s called gaslighting and projection. We can see right though you little man.
