Ok, I can't seem to figure out how to answer quote by quote so forgive my list:
If you want to quote things separately mark the text you'd like to quote and a small menu should open to allow you to either reply or quote, if you select quote you can collect as many of those quotes as you want, then scroll down to the reply box and you should see a new button to add those quotes to your reply. Order the quotes how you want and add them to the bottom of your reply with the buttons.
- Regarding "who's more violent than who", I have two things to say about it: first of all, even if the 1/5 of the attacks were from the far-left, it's still attacks that shouldn't have happened. Second, you don't see people condemning those, with the media even insisting that the 2020 riots were "peaceful" when people were beaten up in the street for doing nothing. Lastly, I'm sorry, but since "data" showed that those 2020 riots "didn't help spread COVID" I just can't take these seriously anymore. Either I believe the data and COVID is a hoax or I believe literally all the rest of the data and I'm going to call bullshit on that, because COVID is very, very real.
As for who's more violent, much of the violence from the far left is self defense, plain and simple, and it's only ever property damage and never personal damage. If I have to pick between either it's pretty clear the one that doesn't engage in provocative stochastic terrorism, kidnapping plots of governors, or straight up trying to murder people is going to be the more preferable one.
93% of all BLM protests were peaceful. Out of 2400 locations fewer than 220 had any form of violence happen at them, many of those instances were provoked by counter protesters or riot cops.

The protests were also early enough that spread wasn't as likely considering not that many people in the crowd were statistically infected yet, combine that with masking up, keeping distances, and being at a well ventilated place (aka outside) and transmission rates aren't as bad as they could be. Wasn't perfect, could have been better, still wasn't the end of the world. And quite frankly at the time many likely thought it was worth the risk considering what was at stake.
- I'm not sure why you posted a joycon but cool? I stopped using my two because of the drift
I believe the joycon link may be a bug, it's showing properly on my end on PC. Maybe try it again? I did see it once, too, but I can't reproduce it anymore.
(Same link as above, hopefully this time it won't show up as a joycon related):
Okay, it happened again with the Joycons, but only via loading my post via javascript, reload the page manually if it shows up incorrectly to you.
- That wasn't the only burnt building
And plenty of those weren't burned by BLM protesters but people like that Boogaloo Boi or other opportunistic looters traveling there to commit crimes and not to protest.
- People still went there. The doxxing was done to intimidate those people.
If people's right to peaceful assembly or free speech is infringed on they will take steps to restore those rights. The government is there to serve the people, not to subjugate them.
Though apart from one crazy dude there were also no further incidents. The protests were lawful, hence why not a single one of them (again apart of that single guy with the gun) got arrested during the many weeks of protests.
The supreme court could have just let them protest on the plaza in front of the supreme court instead of barricading everything up to the sidewalks.
It feels hypocritical to take an important legal protection from half the population of the US, disallow them from exercising their rights in the place where it makes sense (in front of the supreme court), and then get mad when they use their right to peacefully assemble and protest in the next best location that still inconveniences the responsible parties.
There's also the entire part where the right has condemned protests outside of the houses of abortion doctors and political opponents for years, and has performed those while carrying guns and rifles. Feels weird that the people without weapons shouldn't be allowed to do the same.
- So what would have happened if Trump won the elections?
What would have happened with a bunch of construction site bricks that were placed there by a construction crew? They got moved before the protest by the same construction crew that put them there:

So what would have happened is nothing apart from more protests, and unless counter protesters would have caused a stink like they did with the actual storming of the capitol nothing further would have happened either.
