Edit: apparently I missed the sarcasm/satire. But that says something about where we are today as a society and what is within the realm of possibility. No it’s not that simple. Especially because you’ve forgotten about past Capitol riots at McConnell’s office (https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/25/politics/sunrise-movement-mcconnell-protests/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/25/politics/sunrise-movement-mcc...), and Pelosi’s office (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-nancy-pelosi-climate-change-congress-democrats-protest-a8632361.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politic...), and the legislative chambers when Kavanaugh was appointed (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45754771 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45754771). Those riots were instigated, condoned, and encouraged by left leaning politicians not the right. There are clear double standards in journalism both due to what they cover and how they cover it - see https://www.allsides.com/blog/capitol-hill-breach-riot-coverage-demonstrates-media-bias https://www.allsides.com/blog/capitol-hill-breach-riot-cover... or just watch the softball questions at the white house press conferences now. Or consider that you probably hadn’t heard of the above incidents I enumerated. News media is incredibly biased and even tenured houses of journalism have just become the next theater for activists to take over and amplify their worldviews from, using missing context, selection bias, and subtle redefinition of words like “peaceful”. Free speech is the only thing that can help both sides seek the truth and it is the only thing that can prevent each side from thinking the other side must be tyrannically suppressed.
