The media isn’t making up Biden’s call for law and order, nor the calls from the Democratic governors in CA and NY, or the Democratic mayor (albeit DINO) of NYC. Basically every statement by a non-progressive politician is vague support for freedom of speech before moving on to statements about violence and antisemitism (generally unsupported) and how protests aren’t supposed to actually inconvenience or disrupt anyone’s lives.
