There were two separate Jan 6th events at the Capitol:
1. A peaceful protest by Trump supporting patriots.
2. A riot perpetrated by FBI agents and their informants.
The peaceful protest by about 200,000 Trump supporters is simply never mentioned when discussing January 6, not even by people supposedly on our side. Most Americans have no idea that anything happened that day except a Trump speech and a riot at the Capitol. They also do not know that the vast majority of the people at the Capitol just calmly walked through the rotunda and then left.
Yes, I suppose that’s the other way to look at it.
