> Yet, this doesn’t seem to end in any kind of policy concessions or compromise for rightwingers like the ones you saw for the violent Black Lives Matter rioters in 2020

That wasn't a case of concessions to rioters. That was a case of using the rioters as an excuse to implement the policies they already wanted to implement.

Addendum to the boomer posting phenomenon you describe. Sorry in advance bc this is an advertisement for the GOP but everyone here needs to hear it. My local GOP is all boomers, and v few millennials or zoomers. The boomers are lovely people and to a T pro Donald. Some of the commenters (not on this article but elsewhere on your substack) have been stigmatizing local political participation. This is wrong. The only way forward is through the Republican Party, at local and state levels -- which will become national power. In addition to advancing our policies, you will meet great older guys and ladies who will enrich your life
