Liberals storm Wisconsin Capitol, no outrage from the left, as usual
-
It's only when the right does it.

Hmmm - did they break in? Did they pillage the place?
Seems to me you're conflating "legitimate protests" - which includes the first half of the events on Jan 6 - with insurrection (attempting to overthrow the Government vs just influence it) - which includes the OTHER half of the events on Jan 6.
No amount of fake comparisons will reduce the absurdity of the Jan 6 insurrection.
Your comparison is akin to "Look! He lit a match!" (to light a cigarette) and comparing that to "Look! He burned down half of Arizona! But he did it with a match!"
One is a completely legitimate thing to do. The other is a significant crime. The fact that a match was involved in both doesn't vilify the smoker, and neither does it excuse the arsonist!
Bringing it back home:
It wasn't the protesting on Jan 6 that made it an insurrection. There are LITERALLY (in the old sense) protests in Washington, DC EVERY SINGLE DAY!No, it was the breaking into the capitol, it was the threats of violence against current officials of our Gov't, it was the massive destruction of Gov't property, and it was the attempt to STOP the Gov't body from performing its civic duty... THAT'S what made it an insurrection! (What? the treats weren't real? Then why the gallows on the steps of the Capitol?)
Not every fire is arson, and not every protest is an insurrection!

Anything to defend liberal fuckheads like yourself.

Not at all - the shit-show in Seattle didn't get any support from me (when BLM rioters essentially took over parts of Seattle in 2020)...
AOC & Bernie seldom see any love from me, but I don't stand for them being accused of terrible (false) things just because your Russian masters want to drive a wedge between Americans (real ones). I also don't stand for Leftist attacks on Sen Cruz or Sen Paul. (That doesn't mean I support everything Sen Paul does or says - he's a crackpot and an idiot, IMHO)...
But you can't be swayed by FACTS! You have your OPINIONS, and in spite of any FACTS, your opinions are ALWAYS right! Damned right!
EVERYONE has the right to protest our Government! INCLUDING ILLEGAL ALIENS! That's one of the things about the US that makes us BETTER than most other countries... we don't just give and protect the rights of CITIZENS - we apply those same rights and protections to ALL PEOPLE!
While the rally with Trump on the morning of Jan 6 was completely LEGAL and I have (and had) no issue with that protest, the parts that came later WERE criminal (hence so many who have pleaded GUILTY to actual, serious crimes!)
Another analogy: walking up to my door and ringing my doorbell isn't a crime. Neither is it a crime if you do that and run away! But if you ring my doorbell ... and THEN break my door down? Well, THAT is a CRIME!

I'm not gonna be swayed by your BS.
Even if we agree on the facts, it doesn't mean that we will view it the same way.
You get pissed because I won't view everything through a liberal lens, like you do.

LOL to quote the Republicans in the 1990s, and the Democrats in the 2010's... and quite honestly, both sides in the 2020s:
You are entitled to your own opinions, but you are not entitled to your own facts.

Yeah, ok.
How many black men did Kyle Rittenhouse murder in Chicago?
We know which 4 outlets you got that bit of news from, even after the trial.
