The movement that led to the Capitol riot was a misguided but fundamentally patriotic belief that there needs to be more of a focus on ensuring free and fair elections. You can disagree that a protest was needed and you can impugn the motivations of the organisers, but that is what the bulk of the protesters thought they were protesting.

A government installed by the people is a principle that compares on similar footing to equality.

Free and fair elections are important, but there is no evidence to suggest that the 2020 elections were not free and fair.

It was weaponized patriotism, not misguided patriotism.
