Ezra Klein applied a generalization of the blame for yesterday's events to Republicans and conservative media in his twitter thread that IceMage posted and praised.
I'm just applying the same kind of generalization of the blame for violent events to Democrats and liberal media. Not more, not less.
The DNC didn't create the problem out of thin air that the BLM protesters were protesting.
The issue at hand is a total fabrication. That's the first major difference.
Erza specifically said "They were told this by the President. By the House minority leader. By more than a dozen senators. By more than a hundred US representative. By anchors on Fox News. By nationally syndicated radio hosts. ". He is explicitly calling out those who spread this misinformation.
So no, he did not make the same false equivalence you are making.
