You say that as if the displays of the extremist left fringe were genuine. Sure there will always be the far left fringe and they will direct as much hate at the democrats as they do at the republicans, but what we saw over the last year wasn't a reflection of that. The riots were a coordinated effort BY the democrat party to sew more division and create more of an air of an out of control Trump administration.
If you think the blm riots were organic you're dead wrong. The small band of leftists that vandalized the Democrat headquarters on 1/20, now THAT was likely organic. But you wont see much of that on the MSM news.
The leadership is owned and paid yes, the rank and file in some cases are also paid, but many are genuine. The violence was allowed, supported by the Dem controlled govts in Dem controlled states, it began to lose its impact when people saw it was only in Dem states.
As for the rank and file, look at them, you can see that many believe in what they are saying. Watch the BLM marches espec the early ones, many in the crowd are decrying the violence, they are ignored.
From then on Antifa was always part of the BLM marches and brought the violence. Plus letting convicted felons out of jail because of the plague added to the mix, upping the level of violence.
In BLM riots, widespread looting was a key objective, this is where the inner city gangs took over and the sincere marchers were absent. Law was absent as well, again only in Dem cities.
I disagree re the Dem Headquarters on 1/20, that looked organized, professional, it was done IMO to create the impression that the Dems were under attack. To later justify their actions when they "protect" themselves.
