Conservatives have a habit of identifying harmless groups as dangerous and victimizing other groups (that relatively more powerful by comparison).

Today some white hicks molested a black girl -- lets go start a riot yall!
Today some lesbians beat up a twink -- IM SICK LESBIAN VIOLENCE BLAAAAHHH---not real.
There is no liberal agenda to assault people with bike locks.
But it does unite the conservatives briefly with some story about "antifa violence."

Except that over the past several years, leftist protests HAVE broken out in widespread violence.
Wisconsin State Fair
Ferguson riots just prior to the Presidential Election where people were literally pulling white people who were on their commute home after work out of their cars and beating them; hospitalizing several dozen people
The unite the right rally where violence on both sides erupted in the death of a woman a crowd of people that had been assaulting a "Nazi".
The assaults on white people at the San Jose, CA trump rally just prior to the presidential election.
Completely innocent people being violently assaulted in the portland airport by a mob of leftists after Trump won the election.
Then you can couple that with the REALITY that when convicted of violent political crimes, leftist perpetrators are essentially being given a slap on the hand, whilst right-leaning perpetrators are essentially being charged with "Hate Crimes" and the heavy-handed sentencing commensurate with that label.
Now, you couple that with the APA literally defining qualities intrinsic to being a man being "harmful" and you're essentially building a dehumanizing narrative that paves the way for future Pogrom-ic Violence.
The events leading up to the rise of Nazi Germany did not just happen suddenly, overnight, like the erection of the Berlin Wall. There was a gradual increase in the frequency and intensity of violence against jews along with a gradual increase in the viciousness of the rhetoric being used to build a base that would support genocidal pogroms against Jews.
Minimalization and denial of the reality of what has been unfolding at the feet of leftist antifa thugs is encouraging and enabling their violence.
