    I’ve seen this sentiment floating around so you’re definitely not alone in this.

    On one hand, it is disappointing to see the momentum dying out.

    On the other hand, if there are indeed radical people or groups inspired to copy, I’d hope they take the time to do it properly and set a good example. We saw in the 1890s-1900s what can happen if copycat assassinations are done too carelessly.[1] While I don’t believe individualist violence is an effective solution to this problem, there can be some good effects so long as targets are well-chosen and methods are successful.
