I wanted to add that there is still so much to explore on the relationship between Charlottesville and the Capitol attack. /1 https://twitter.com/pastpunditry/status/1347524735731703809
A piece on police deference and inaction, and a refusal to see white right-wing protestors as a source of potential violence, no matter how many times you're warned. /2
A piece on the changes in the far-right: changing leadership, the rise of QAnon radicallism, changing iconography (the Nazi flags replaced with Blue Lives Matter and Trump flags). /3
A piece on the multi-year effort to forge Trump's Lost Cause myth. /4
A piece on the resilience of antiracist protestors and other ordinary people in cities under sustained attack by right-wing forces. /5
A piece on Charlottesville and the Capitol attack as moments of shared national trauma, watched (by most people) over television and social media.

Anyway, lots to chew on. 6/6
