I don't think they are fine with it. I think they just cannot defend it and cannot bring themselves to agree with us. The old rock and a hard place dilemma.

I hope. The alternative is that they are in agreement with or condone the wave of brownshirt activity that is bubbling furiously on the left. Or that they just give a ****, which in some ways might be worse....

I think they are just idealists, who perceive the world as divided into two parts - racists and nonracists, or, IOW, conservatives and liberals, respectively. That is why they see us as deplorables. That is why they see a conservative with a gun as dangerous. That is why everything is built on the notions of white supremacists and racist police forces.

So when presented with evidence that 99% of the violence is coming from their side, and 95% of the inane ideas like the GND, they first defend their side, then attack the other side, and finally fall silent.
