Second, to the Hitler point -- lest anybody forget -- Nazi is short for National SOCIALIST.
...who were formed from the far-right "Freikorps" paramilitary groups that fought in WW1 and who pushed hard for right-wing policies in Germany. Notably, the Nazis biggest enemies were leftists - specifically socialists and communists, with members of both groups sent to the death camps as political prisoners if they weren't just killed outright.

Hitler was a darling of the American right-wing and the admiration was mutual (Hitler was a big fan of Henry Ford's right-wing views and antisemitism and Ford reciprocated by writing an article for Nazi publication) - prior to the war, elements of the American right viewed Hitler as one of the most effective right-wing, anti-communist leaders in all of Europe and his various writings denouncing socialism and leftism had numerous supporters on the other side of the Atlantic.

Please put this tired "Nazis were actually left wing, guys!!" bullshit to bed. It does nothing but expose your own historical ignorance.

Neither was the Jan 6 riots.
Literally an attempt to stop the certification of the election of the new president. That is 100% an attempted overthrow of the government and the sort of shit that would have gotten you hanged for treason 150+ years ago.

I'm not sure if that's more disingenuous or deliberately deceitful.
I get you're trying to worm out of this without actually lodging a meaningful rebuttal, but you're going to have to provide more substance to your post than that.

What are you actually objecting to? That four people died in the insurrection? I can give you links if you're too incompetent to find them yourself.

He literally shot needlessly into a crowd when his OWN fellow officers were right behind them.
Needlessly? No, when an insurrectionist who is trespassing on government property is violently smashing through a window to enter a chamber that the police have deliberately barricaded because civilians are inside that they are charged with protecting (civilians, mind, that the insurrectionists were chanting threats towards, saying they should be hanged on the gallows they'd brought for the occasion or just straight-up shot), that is 100% a justification for lethal force. If this moron didn't want to get shot, she should have made several better life choices leading up to that day.

Frankly, trying to smash through a police barricade in a secured building is one of the dumbest things I can think of doing if you're not trying to commit suicide-by-cop. I'm honestly kind of amazed more people weren't shot and killed under similar circumstances. Dunno whether to chalk that up to good restraint on the part of the capitol police or a result of the skin colour of the insurrectionists.

Propaganda 101.
Again, what are you objecting to with this vacuous statement?
