Or do you have some alternative facts on that stuff as well? 

How do you just spin away from stark reality so casually? 

A significant percentage of trump's little rabble had very bad intentions that day and it is very well documented. 
The rest of these grown adults along for the ride should have damn well known better. 

THEY MADE THEIR BEDS

Let em lie in them.

I'm speaking of the numerous instances where lefties entered federal (and state) government buildings and shut them down with sit-ins and the like and we barely heard a blip about it. The Kavanaugh Mostly Peaceful Insurrection was one recently as was the Pro Baby Killing one where AOC mugged for the cameras. They lay in those nice, soft, comfy beds the law made for them instead of getting the wood shampoos the right side protesters get in the same circumstances. Of course there weren't any Fed instigators or ANTIFA thugs in disguise in their groups to make trouble like in the J6 crowd. Only the right wing gets the benefit of government agents starting riots on their behalf.

You might have a point depending on how specific you want to get.  Just saying "numerous instances" is hand waving.    
In any of the incidents you want us to consider, did the protestors/insurrectionists bypass metal detectors while entering a secured area? If they did, we should presume some of them were armed and dangerous.  If they did not, they were not. 
Did all of these protestors/insurrectionists escape justice, or were some of them arrested later the way the J6 insurrectionists were?
Were any government workers or officials prevented from doing their jobs due to the protest? For how long? How important to the continuation of the Constitution was their job at that time?
Also, I'm not sure why you are only talking about the left.  The protestors/insurrectionists who shut down Lansing for a few days in 2020 were right wingers, and the media and authorities also treated them with kid gloves.
