Yup. I think every right winger on here needs to concede that there was a group of right wing insurrectionists present that day in the Capitol. I don't think it's what the media made it out to be, but there were definitely some people there with bad intentions. There were also some antifa folks there. They clearly didn't make up the majority, but they did partake in this event, including some of the destruction. There were also some FBI agents who were undercover. We know they infiltrated what they believed were right ring terror threats. I'm not sure what role they played in the breach, but, if the Governor Whitmer incident is any indicator, it's probably more than they should have.

If the right-wingers here can concede there were some right wing insurrectionists, can the rest of you acknowledge that antifa played a role in fomenting dissent? And, at the very least, acknowledge that the FBI was undercover and present that day?

I only care about this because it shows that there were a lot of moving parts. You take a mob with an angry sentiment, then include violent bad actors and agents encouraging people to do something illegal, and you have the perfect conditions for an insurrection.
