I think a zealot tries to cast peaceful protesters as the same as the violent ones like you do. I recognize the difference between pro-trump protesters that didn’t trash our capitol and engage in violence and the ones that did. So you are only fooling yourself on who is the true zealot here.
First of all, I don't do that, and never did. That is a completely made up slander. ...

Now everyone can see the threat pro-trump terrorists pose to our country and hopefully finally treat it like other terrorism.
The reason both Trump, myself and most conservatives don't make that distinction with he BLM protesters is because they burned and looted HUNDREDS OF CITIES. It wasn't limited to just a few sections of one building. In your native Minneapolis, they burned ad destroyed over 500 businesses in just that one city. Also, the Democrats and liberal media were very dismissive of the mass destruction, on CNN reporter Ari-what's-his-name stood with the whole horizon behind him on fire, and laughably said "mostly peaceful protests". Ass to that how they, both Democrats and CNN and MSNBC reporters far from condemning the BLM violence, called it "justifiable". There's absolutely no sympathy from the same liberal Newspeak liars for the protesters on January 6th. ...
You do do that WB. I had friends and relatives that participated peacefully in the BLM protests. Good people that are not anti cop but recognize there is a problem. Trump cast them as just as bad as the worst. Lots of republicans like yourself ran with it.
Again, you're a fucking liar, M E M.
You talk out both sides of your mouth, conflating ALL Trump supporters as racist militants and terrorists, and all "incited" by Trump.
And then you talk out the other side of your mouth and say "Oh no, I don't consider every trump supporter a white nationalist", when you just outright said or implied it 20 times, so you're on the record once denying the narrative you were just pushing.
I don't see anything I said that was wrong. The violence in Minneapolis alone >>>FAR<<< exceeds what happened in the Capitol on Jan 6th.
That's not "casting peaceful protestors as the same as violent ones", that's just a fact. That far more BLM protestors nationwide looted and burned and destroyed cities nationwide, tore down national monuments. Urinated on them ! Attacked government buildings. Attacked ICE and Border Patrol facilities.
And that THE LEADERSHIP OF YOUR ENTIRE PIECE-OF-SHIT DEMOCRAT BOLSHEVIK PARTY outright endorsed or at best never criticized any of these acts. That in my mind makes them all one in spirit with the violent rioters. They endorse it. KAMALA HARRIS: "It's going to go on right through election day, it will not stop, it SHOULDN'T stop." CORY BOOKER: "Get in some congressmens' faces..." NANCY PELOSI: "People do what they do... I don't care about statues..." MAXINE WATERS: "If you see anybody from that cabinet, in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd, and you push back on them, an you tell them they're not welcome."
Your side, on a large scale if not completely, endorsers violence. From the top of the party to the grassroots/social media bottom. And I've cited the posts of Democrats cheering on violence on social media. Mos itnfuriating to me was when the news of Trump diagnosed with Covid-19 was greeted with over 1 million likes. Facebook and Twitter had to put up notices for Democrat users not to post mean things about the Trump being ill, or the enthusiastic posts about wanting him to die would have been even higher. A FORMER OBAMA SPEECHWRITER POSTED : "I hope he dies."
As contrasted with the Capitol violence, done by 40 or so persons, some of them identified as Antifa, but regardless, universally condemned by Trump supporters.
