My words were too strong. I mean to say that it's possible this guy will claim it was an accident, that he panicked after being struck, and he only was hoping they'd move out of the way. Or that he didn't intend to kill anyone.
It's a totally different level than the BLM-related killings where the murderers flat-out say "I just wanted to kill white people".
At any rate, my point is that there wasn't any huge counter-reaction to silencing people when "the other side" did it. But one person dies due to right-wing-related idiots and suddenly this requires even Cloudflare to change their position?
The obsession with Antifa is probably that they seem like they're the same just on the other side. They idolize people that killed as many as Hitler did. They act violent, write all sorts of shit on social media, openly promote violence, intimidate people into not speaking, but there doesn't seem to be a reaction. Thus "alt-right" folks are going to view this simply as being unfairly targeted. I'd bet if people on the left were also silenced online they would not feel this way.
