Nobody from BLM led an attack on the Capitol. Had that happened before Trump's inauguration, every black person in this country would have been shot execution style and dumped in mass graves. How is that for both sides?

Was this much better than an attack on the capitol?:

This is like posting a picture of the L.A. Race Riots to "own" anyone who thinks Rodney King shouldn't have been beaten.

BLM isn't responsible for these burned buildings and lootings and riots.  What started as peaceful protests were hijacked by violent criminals who had absolutely nothing to do with BLM but saw the opportunity to pull s--t.  The rioting and looting and burning was condemned by virtually every BLM group as well as 100% of Democratic politicians.

In contrast, with the 1/6 insurrection, the entire point was to overthrow the election.  The violence was the entire point.  The violence was organized, planned and perpetrated by the leaders of the insurrection.  It was encouraged and celebrated by Republican/MAGA politicians and public figures.

There is no excuse.  The two are not comparable in any way.  But even if they were, every single Democrat has condemned the violence in the Minneapolis riots, but no Republican is willing to condemn the violence of the 1/6 insurrection.  Instead you guys do this motte-and-bailey thing where the motte is "the violence was bad but we need to move on for the good of the country (and thus should have investigations or accountability)" and the bailey is "the violence was justified, the election was a sham, Ashley Babbit is a martyr, and this was all a good thing."

This is one of the most vapid statements I’ve had the misfortune to read in all my years of cognitive ability.

Every single Republican official has condemned 1/6. I cannot think of anyone on the right who supports it- you’d have to stoop to the levels of Groypers and legitimate QTards to find anyone who genuinely “supported” it. And that’s the seafloor.

I don't have to go that far at all.  I only have to look at GOP politicians elected to Congress.  Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Paul Gosar (R-AZ), and Mo Brooks (R-AL) helped plan the attack.  Lauren Boebert (R-CO) tweeted out Pelosi's location and also led future insurrectionists on tours of the Capitol prior to the attack.  Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), far from condemning the attack, is trying to insist it wasn't Trump supporters at all but actually an antifa false flag.

There are plenty of other elected Republicans, at both the national and state level, who have refused to condemn the attack, tried to defend it by either downplaying their severity or labeling them a false-flag attack,, or given wink-wink type statements.  And of course there are an enormous number of elected Republicans, like Trump himself or Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) who supported the attacks as they were happening, and then were forced to put out publicity statements condemning them after the public backlash (quickly followed by wink-wink statements so the base would know the publicity statements were just that).

For Christ's sake, Trump is the leader of your party and 17 Congressional Republicans voted to impeach him for inciting and encouraging the 1/6 attack.

Not to mention both Newsmax and OANN openly celebrated the attacks before pivoting to the antifa false flag defense, and both networks are frequented/promoted by a wide variety of national-level GOP officials.
