A situation where an individual is motivated to physically assault someone because they strongly disagree with the other person’s political views and or the victim’s political identity. It usually starts out as a verbal disagreement, which escalates to the point where one of the individuals involved in the incident physically attacks the other one and the situation turns into a full-blown fight. The attacker may have strong biases against certain populations, certain mental illnesses that have not been diagnosed and or are not being treated adequately, extreme political beliefs, and or political insanity.
When a political assault happens, it often draws the public and politician’s attention and they may quickly mobilize to address the issues that facilitated it to occur; depending on who the victim was, who the attacker was, what specific issue or bias motivated the attacker’s actions, the responses from the public officials, the victim, and or celebrities, and the circumstances leading up to the event.

A major political and social issue that arises when during election season, Republicans and Democrats have more access to the media, public relations professionals, and have more education and training on how to effectively campaign in political elections than nonmainstream political parties have, which results in the Republicans in Democrats winning more elections than nonmainstream political parties. Many members of the general public have been conditioned by the mainstream political parties to believe this is acceptable when in fact it is not. The best way to address this problem is actively work to ensure that nonmainstream political parties have more access to the media, p.r. professionals, and education on how to effectively run a political campaign.
The Political Mainstream Supremacy Effect has been around for many years and over time has had a very heavy, negative impact on the political diversity found in governments in all levels of jurisdiction all over the U.S.

A group of people that a particular society and or government has failed to sufficiently address that group’s needs and desires, causing them to have a strong distrust in that country’s society and government. In some cases, it drives large numbers of people in that group to want to leave that country and settle in another land, or get them rise up and attempt to overthrow that country’s government.
Forgotten peoples are often subject to unreasonable discrimination and or government persecution for their identities and or beliefs.

1: A political identity where an individual chooses not to support a particular political party. It is important to be careful not to confuse this with being apolitical.
2: A situation where an individual chooses not to take a stance on a political issue, or they decide to establish their own unique political view on that issue that is not being held by any major political party, for any reason. Some people believe this can be a source of privilege, but that depends on what they did, what the issue was, and why they did it.

Practicing political neutrality can allow an individual to have a wider array of options when attempting to address a variety of different issues; as well as ensure that needs and desires of the people are being handled adequately. (To help you understand the GIF I chose for this, imagine the ball is a certain political issue the government would like to address, the two dogs fighting over the ball are the mainstream political parties clashing over which of their solutions will best address the issue, the dog who backed away represents an individual who has chosen not take a stance on that issue, and the dog who stuck their head in between the two dogs heads represents an individual who has made their own unique view on that issue because they don't agree with the views held by either of the political parties fighting over the ball.)
