I wouldn’t be surprised if the murder of Phil Hartman had a lot to do with it. He was frequent on the show up to that point.
There have been successful progressive movements that have achieved their goals through violence as well though. If you don’t limit the actions of progressives to the last century, the abolitionist movement and the civil war were incredibly violent and achieved their goals through that violence.
