So that means that everyone who is against historical statues being torn down is is inherently an absolute white nationalist?
Did you know that only the Sith deal in absolutes?

If someone goes to a protest organized by Antifa or BLM, do you consider that person to be Antifa or BLM?

So that "rally" was strictly a PRO-WHITE NATIONALIST RALLY, and not an anti-iconoclast / anti-Antifa protest?
I never really thought of it as a "rally". I missed the imagery of a big stage, keynote speakers, a PA sound system, big flags & banners, etc.
My Internet was off that week.
President Trump's remarks on Charlottesville received significant attention. In his initial statement on the rally, President Donald Trump did not denounce white nationalists explicitly, instead condemning "hatred, bigotry, and violence on many sides." His statement and his subsequent defenses of it, in which he also referred to "very fine people on both sides," were seen by critics as implying moral equivalence between the white supremacist marchers and those who protested against them, and were interpreted by many as a sign that he was sympathetic to white supremacy.
Hostile media effect (cognitive bias)
n 1982, the second major study of this phenomenon was undertaken;[2] pro-Palestinian students and pro-Israeli students at Stanford University were shown the same news filmstrips pertaining to the then-recent Sabra and Shatila massacre of Palestinian refugees by Christian Lebanese militia fighters abetted by the Israeli army in Beirut during the Lebanese Civil War. On a number of objective measures, both sides found that these identical news clips were slanted in favor of the other side. Pro-Israeli students reported seeing more anti-Israel references and fewer favorable references to Israel in the news report and pro-Palestinian students reported seeing more anti-Palestinian references, and so on. Both sides said a neutral observer would have a more negative view of their side from viewing the clips, and that the media would have excused the other side where it blamed their side. en.wikipedia.org...

They're just like the Nazi's, they just have a different viewpoint about it. They think just like them only with different preferences about the things they think about. They are the yin to each others yang. Its just plain SJWFRONT vs. STORMFRONT. They wear the 'same clothes' only with different stripe patterns. Etc.
They are each the face of rabid supremacism.
Neo-Nazi is the ugly hate machine. Nu-Nazi is the pretty hate machine. But ironically enough the SJW's have a worse track record this decade when it comes to going and just assaulting people that disagree with them / irritate them / dont follow their PC BS / etc.
I'm warming up for a focus piece on what I'm getting at here. Been off my game most of this year tho. But you're going to love to death it when its ready...

Doesn't matter. Lipinski's won 3 elections by over 70%. That said Lipinski is a Democrat even Republicans can get behind:

Don't find many of those these days.

But why dont "liberals" see SJW / BLM / Antifa for the kind of hate that 'it' is (opposing Nazi's yes but an equal and polar opposite form of hate) and distance themselves?
