It's important to know that these are three distinctly different groups with distinctly different objectives.

Again. The objectives of these 3 groups are different. This is true even if some of the people in these groups are gathered in the same place at the same time. This is ALSO true even if SOME of the people align themselves (or claim to align themselves) with more than one group.

Lumping any two (or all) of the three groups I've outlined above into a SINGLE group is an unfortunate and common fallacy. They look the same to you. They are disrupting your personal sense of normalcy. You conclude they are the same. They are not.

Thankfully the clear distinction between them is being made clear by our local news reports. I can only hope that other news sources will do same. But I also know that in the case of certain news sources with their own specific agenda, that is not likely.”
