That is not an understatement.
Congressman Hank Johnson said on MSNBC, to the man that incited the Crown Height pogrom riots, that the storming of the Capitol was a race war and he and others would have been lynched.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told ABC that half of Congress was about to be murdered.

“And so, if we allow insurrection against the United States with impunity, with no accountability, we are inviting it to happen again,” Ocasio-Cortez said on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos. “We came close to nearly half of the House dying on Wednesday.”
The media has latched onto the word insurrection. A word not used to describe the annexation of territory by the CHAZ/CHOP or other autonomous zones created by Antifa, or the continuous seige of the Portland Federal Courthouse.
As I mentioned before, Congresswoman Cori Bush drafted a resolution to expel 138 Republican members of the House who challenged the certification of the Electoral College votes.
I believe the Republican members of Congress who have incited this domestic terror attack through their attempts to overturn the election must face consequences. They have broken their sacred Oath of Office.
I will be introducing a resolution calling for their expulsion. pic.twitter.com/JMTlQ4IfnR

Senators Ted Cruz and John Hawley are being told to resign, with the accusation that their legal challenge incited an insurrection.
Pelosi announced she will impeach Trump again if Pence doesn’t have him removed by the 25th Amendment.
Biden himself called these people “domestic terrorists.”
We are watching in real time as social media and Big Tech is colluding in violation of every anti-trust law to kick Right Wing voices off the internet.
The Democrats are claiming that they could have been massacred to justify the largest crackdown on Americans since another Democrat signed Executive Order 9066.
When Senator Chuck Schumer said the the storming of the Capitol was like Pearl Harbor, he wasn’t lying.
Sen. Schumer compares today's events to Pearl Harbor:
"Franklin Roosevelt set a day aside that will live in infamy. Unfortunately, we can now add January 6, 2021 to that very short list of dates in American history that will live forever in infamy." pic.twitter.com/mVMrVbuxQ8

We called it absurd to compare a riot to military attack that killed 2,335 Americans. He meant in terms of the restrictions on civil liberties that was going to happen to the ground identified as the enemy.
They are going to push this to the breaking point in their crackdown on the Right.
That was a riot?
It was the most peaceful and well behaved riot in human history.
“… if we allow insurrection against the United States with impunity, with no accountability, we are inviting it to happen again.”
They did just that, all spring summer and fall. They have no right to be surprised about this.
Interesting title choice. I remain convinced that the Reichstag fire was organized, planned, and executed by a certain H. Goering. There is at least some anecdotal evidence that antifa agitators were involved in the instigation of “storming” the Capitol. Not that we will ever hear about it if true.
But Truth is the Daughter of Time, so I expect we will find out more long after it won’t matter anymore. Perhaps when my 14 year old nephew has a child.
“Insurrection!”
“Uh, where are the piles of bodies?”
