Umm...what exactly does that mean? Are you trying to be clever, or are you attempting to deflect?

You have the tiki-torch paraders, which Trump empowered and encouraged. Driving a vehicle into a crowd of people?...yep, a Trumper Nazi thug.

Then you have the lone-wolf white supremacy crack-pot wing-nuts. This would be your crazy snipers shooting at abortion clinics, for example, or the ones physically or verbally abusing immigrants or people who are different -- killing them, sometimes, as in the Kansas hate crime attack. Trump encouraged his followers to use violence to silence and suppress dissent from day-one of his campaign -- remember his call to "exercise 2nd amendment rights' to remove his opponent?

Trump is the literal president of the US. He has a huge megaphone and has repeatedly encouraged violence from his supporters.
Maxine is a minor politician who DID NOT encourage violence, but rather encouraged people to say something.

And right now Trump and his supporters are desperately looking to find violence on the left. Why?

And yet most of the violence that we have on video is from the Far left. No one needs to look anywhere. You claim Antifa.

You are purposefully underselling what Maxine Waters said. She told people to make citizens uncomfortable to be out in the public space. That will take very belligerent behavior, is undemocratic, and is as good as a call to violence because that's exactly where it will lead. Not making citizens feel welcome in the public space, through action of any sort, will lead to inevitable conflicts that will continue to undermine democracy.

Who is willfully blind and ignorant? You. You are pointing to one event that was only violent because the Left showed up to violently disrupt it. Did you willfully forget about that detail? We have lots of further conflicts where the Left showed up specifically to be violent, starting with the inauguration, continuing through lots of such conflicts on the West coast and elsewhere. Your spin gets no traction here.

Yup, after the left showed up to violently interact with a demonstration while brandishing AR-15s. In fact, directly before that guy rammed his car into that person someone had waved an AR-15 at him.

What, haven't watched CNN or NBC in the past decade, or listened to NPR?

What guys in the White sheets? How about those guys in black with bear mace and pepper spray for Trump supporters, sometimes molotov cocktails, and anti-free speech rhetoric that show up everywhere? You own them.

Projection isn't an argument.

Shall we go through the far greater, almost countless, POC on White murders every year that we could categorize as "hate crimes"?

And yet your side is the only one that shows up at an inauguration to torch cars, punch people, and generally act like antidemocratic fascist thugs. How did Obama's inauguration go? Where were your White sheet boogeymen near the mall then?

You're one hundred percent willfully deluded, you know it, and so does the nation.

Antifa has punched some people. The far right has ran over and killed people, punched people, etc.

In fact the numbers say that far right extremism is killing a LOT of folks, and has become a serious issue, whereas antifa tends to focus on fighting the far right specifically. Might that statistic be changing with recent events? Possibly. But certainly the actual facts currently point to far right extremists being the most actually violent and murderous.

And we have rhetoric from Trump about targeting reporters-calling them "enemies of the people", and those who disagree with him. Good ol Milo tweeted the other day about how reporters should be assassinated.....which the very next day a bunch of reporters get gunned down from a Trump supporter upset about them reporting on him. Lets be clear-he murdered people because he was mad at them, not because of trump.....well except for where he tweeted about how they would regret some of their reporting on Trump.
