There’s no ‘sides’ or moral equivalency here and there’s no alt-left. There’s just the left. They are lawless.
The left, like islam, IS radical. No qualifiers are needed. No-Alt needed
Leftists killed over 100 million people last century. That needs to be shoved in the fake media’s lying fargin faces every time they try and smear republicans with some fringe kook group.
The only thing keeping the democrats from going full stalin here, is the rule of law and the republicans with the will to enforce it. That’s gone now, sadly.
So far, every Repuke I’ve heard ‘defending’ our side has failed miserably. They immediately go on the defensive. IOW, they’ve capitulated and lost.
I qualify it. I call it the "violent left." Whether it is Nazi, KKK, BLM, Antifa, Progressive, Communist, etc., it is merely showing different facets of the same malignant ideology.

I really think there is a lot of Stockholm syndrome going on here. When a republican is elected and goes to DC, he or she is bombarded with abusive negativism from bullies in the media and on the Democrat side of the aisle. It is psychology: some profoundly mistreated people adopt the ideology and goals of those who abuse them. Patty Hearst, for example, went so far as to assist her captors to commit a bank robbery in the 1970s. Abused women typically blame themselves for being victims of abuse.
And so on.
The solution, I think, is to end the custom of having politicians move to DC. They should stay home, where they are near their constituents who will remind them every day of why they were elected, and provide some buffer between the politicians and the hostile, anti-American left.
