They don't need real reasons to do their bullshit. Plus this guy was one of them anyway. How come the left is constantly defending themselves for being nonviolent when it's the right that is constantly doing the violence? See the trump assassination attempt, the mn shooting, and most recently the Nazis death.

It's a longer term play. If 40% of the populace is committed against MAGA, and 40% is irredeemably invested in MAGA, that leaves 20% so out of touch with current events they haven't formed any strong opinion. Yes, the MAGA administration is going to do the bullshit anyway. But feeding into the "both sides are the same" narrative might tip the balance of voters into re-voting in the bullshit doers.

You misunderstood me. This is all propaganda and the real violent members are on the right. I'm saying we need to literally fight fascism here, not tiptoe around this shit as it's already here. Who cares about their framing, it's always a lie anyway.
