This was not good vs. bad. It was bad vs. bad, with maybe some hangers-on on both sides.

I highly doubt that, given how many times we've talked about this, and there clearly were some awful people representing the other side that were just looking for a fight.

I think people have likely pushed back about saying it was just bad vs bad, or that one side was more in the right than the other, but not been unwilling to say that ****** people were part of the counter protest.

You yourself went out of your way to state the case that bashing someone's head in while being a racist is a *far* more abhorrent act than simply bashing someone's head in. Strikingly worse iirc.

Was that before or after your painstaking defense of it is far worse to go to meeting where foreign info is offered than seeking foreign info? I forget.

The 'nuanced' lines you draw all seem to blur with one another after a time.
