While it is a scary overreach, the protesters were disrupting residents that lived there with constant honking in the night, the blocking of streets limited emergency workers.

Insurrection, let’s call it what it was, saying you want to hang politicians is vastly different from a simple protest, so is using what is considered torture tactics on the local population.
If you’re going to launch an insurrection against the government don’t be surprised if it retaliates. Would you say it’s scary that the government does the same thing for terrorists?

Oh wow, yeah that’s not that simple. Although using the banks as a tool in that is honestly pretty scary.
