If you look at the arrest reports (including many of the mugshots), your notion that the massive amounts of violence in the past two months as being caused by "white supremacists" would be obviously laughable.
Are you really asserting that it's the right who is doing all this?
It's the big switch going on. Before, the rioters were on the left, now, because their violence can no longer be ignored, the move is on to pretend the rioters are working for Trump, hence the silly white supremacist narrative.
I saw a YouTube video showing a lot of the usual hate-Trumpers on cable news, and journalist commenting on Twitter all starting to claim the riots are what Trump wants, and he somehow involved in promoting them.
“Vandalizing our downtown gives Donald Trump the images he wants and the justification he seeks to send federal troops into American cities,” said Schaaf per the Daily Wire.
“We can’t be fooled and play into his twisted campaign strategy. We celebrate passionate protests but Oaklanders need to know that when they attend protests after dark they may be providing cover for agitators who are more intent on stoking than advancing racial justice,” she continued.
Yup, the antifa and BLM thugs were all peaceful and stuff, and then Trump's minions put weapons in their hands, and convinced them to riot and break things.
No. Are you really suggesting that most of the rioting and looting is by the far left, instead of a bunch of apolitical thugs and criminals that don't have any deeper motivations?
Don't be silly. Antifa and BLM are Marxists, or at minimum far-left. Don't play your fantasy land games here.
"every major city for the last six weeks rioting, looting, and burning." More lies. A couple of hot spots, like Portland and Seattle. Otherwise mostly peaceful demonstrations. You watch too much FauxNews.
I have seen video of rioting, to include looting and property damage, in Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Grand Rapids (really!), Minneapolis, New York, Oakland, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, Providence, Sacramento, Saint Louis, Santa Monica, Seattle, and Washington. And those are just off the top of my head; I imagine there were plenty more. You are either uninformed, or you are purposely downplaying the significant violent social unrest that has been going on across the country.

So why do these apolitical thugs and criminals only come out when there is some progressive cause?
^It's called taking advantage of the situation. Use the crowd as a shield and do whatever you want. Clearly you have a lot of opinions about the dynamics of these protests without actually having been to one.
Are you unable to read the article? The cops have identified the man but the paper is not naming him because he has yet to be charged.
Identified. That means they know who he is. Get it?
Okay, well we shall see. If it is so what? It’s probably a lot of people doing this stuff because idiots take advantage. I hope the dude goes to jail in the same cell as a BLM person. That would be interesting.

Your thugs and criminals don't align with the Right they attack the Right and law abiding American citizens.

In Portland and Seattle, yes, that is exactly what is going on.
Not that the far left motivations are particularly deep either.
At this point it looks like a social event for 20 and 30 somethings with an extreme version of primal scream therapy as the entertainment.
