Leftists are so far left they are ideologues and won't at least denounce the violence of people who are using said violence not just against other ideologues but any ideological opponent.
I'm not caught up in the "Left vs. Right" paradigm where one is either all in on one side or the other. That is a false dichotomy. It is about as bad as children on a playground arguing, "our team is better than your team, everything your team does sucks and ours is great."
What I am defending is sound, honest, logical, and consistent argument and discussion. I point out the faulty logic and inconsistencies of people on the Left and Right and since the most recent election cycle open debate and discussion, free speech/expression has been trodden underfoot mostly by the Left.
"Trump didn't denounce what happened at all. He glossed over it and blamed both sides only after blaming anti-nazis for being there in the first place." Sounds to me like a CNN or Leftist politician's talking point that you have stated as a truth claim.
