lol Trumpers.
To the extreme right, the racist right, they are all the same.
You see consistently since the end of slavery and in every battle for justice and civil rights, they advocate an approach of a justice system that does not distinguish.
They want the law to move in and crush the protests, full stop. The claim 'law and order' must be the only consideration. Then focusing on silencing on things like taking a knee at sports events can be focused upon to silence via other forms of soft power.
And when society and the law does not crush the protests that then becomes forever the 'Whatabout' justification for actions like Neo Nazi insurrection looking to decapitate the heads of government, literally.
'If you won't support the crushing of Black Lives matter marches then this is what you get' is what they believe is a just and fair argument.
And that is because of their bias. They deplore seeing POC demand anything, let alone rights and especially not to 'not be killed'. It cuts to their core and they want it crushed and thus 'of course Nazi like actions would arise... that should be expected if you are going to allow that'.
They think the latter is only clear level headed rationalization of 'cause and result' and honestly do not understand why others do not see it as all the same.
The sight of uppity POC demanding anything in society is abhorrent to them and any tangential violence is beyond the pale. Nazism to them is simply the rationale and natural reply.
I do not mean the above with an ounce of hyperbole. i think this is really how people like Inso0 think.
