20-ish and 1, respectively.

I’m curious as to why you ask, because the comparison is essentially meaningless.

Good things are worthy of a high price.

any price for a Worthless thing is far too high a price. 

BLM protest was for a good cause worthy of a substantial price.   

right wing riots is for a despicable cause for which any price is way too high.

satisfied?

Not only that, but - based on the numbers of people involved in both incidents - the death toll in the DC insurrection was far, FAR higher that that of the 2020 riots.

Edit: Imma make a wild prediction: OLB is not satisfied.

Bad comparison.

Not to be a nudzh, but was there a point to your original question?

And your Guardian link doesn’t exactly refute brewer’s Business Insider story.
