That's basically what the right wants for the left!

My guy, that's because the right are clearly the aggressors. Do you tell domestic abuse victims they're just as bad as ther abusers when they pick up a knife to defend themselves, or spike the soup?

Not really. The right tends to go a little bit harder in that direction:

Are you not white? Be scared. Jew? Be scared. Muslim? Be scared. Gay? Be scared. Socialist? Be scared. Woman? Be scared.

The left is a lot better in that regard, as they tend to limit the "bash their heads in" option toward literal Nazis. It seems to me that the right doesn't feel a need to limit themselves in any way here.

Please tell me you aren’t both-sidesing Nazis. That’s gross.
