1. The problem with this whole framing is that Biden *didn't* call out extremists on his own side, just bothsides violent extremism in general - exactly as Trump tried to do after Charlottesville, except that unlike Biden, Trump then had to answer hostile press questioning.https://twitter.com/jonathanchait/status/1300753581595930625 …

6. In terms of denouncing specific people & groups on the left side for riots, looting, arson, & assaults in the streets, a lot of progressive & liberal pundits are trying to give Biden credit not only for things *he* hasn't said, but things *they* won't say, either.

Biden did not say a word about who was doing any of those things. https://twitter.com/Hesiod2k11/status/1300859252458819589 …

Do you think they should be held to the same standard? It’s extremely plausible that Trump doesn’t say bad things about white nationalist extremists because he actually likes them and agrees with them. Maybe I’m naive and biased, but the converse doesn’t seem likely with Biden.

So in your world we should judge every statement my every person completely out of context of their other statements? We literally never do that.

That doesn't even seem true, trump unilaterally denounces all nazis in his Charlottesville speech, Biden did not do this for antifa

HAHAHAHHA. Antifascism isn't bad. Trump didn't unilaterally denounce all nazis and has several on his staff dictating policy.

I was making more of a practical political argument less than a moral one. I agree Biden needs to do more.

just about everyone killing people for political reasons and trying to kill people for political reasons is a nut job conservative, and yet they are, to you, the same as people causing property damage.

It’s a crude joke to equate this. One group of people has Jesse Kelly calling for pelts and Kurt schlicter writing porn about killing the libs and the other side has some property damage and then an army of people condemning that.
