Violence associated with any right wing protest seems to generate a huge reaction compared to violence associated with a left wing protest.
Right now there is vandalism going on across multiple cities and it is barely a blip on the radar because nobody expects any better from violent leftists and this type of thing is so damn common from them.
The moment any violence occurs at a right wing protest the reaction from people not sympathetic to their politics is huge. Hence why before the capitol breach many left leaning poster on here had to keep referring to Charlottesville due to a single scumbag with their car.
They can refer to these events easily because they are so few and far between in combination with the huge coverage that you can remember them easily.
Violent left wing related protests happen so often that you would not even know where to start when citing examples and if they created a list they would look like this.
It also seems most incidents of violence I see at right wing protests involve "counter protesters" showing up to start a fight.
If a protest is right wing only without agitators showing up to fight there is less chance of violence compared to many left with protests where the presence of counter protesters is not needed to kick off violence and damage. The presence of another persons property is enough to kick things off.
