Strawman: In the video, the attackers don't identify as BLMs and are just as likely to be plain disgruntled black people. They also don't attack the man because of his race or sexuality.
I need to stress that this is still horrible, but it's the level of volatile aggressiveness I've come to expect from American politics these last two years. And Trump is extremely unlikely to try and reach across the aisle to bridge these chasms in your society. He doesn't strike me as that kind of guy.
As for "rubbing it in the face of people like me," you might have overlooked that I AM GERMAN. Your political climate isn't mine. Your left aren't my left, and these people in your "bonus vid" need to be punished by the law just as much as the racists and sexists in the examples I provided.
I implied that the people in the video were likely Hillary voters. They were, at least anti-Trump. When I brought up BLM, I was bringing them up as a general example of leftist hypocrisy. I think you are projecting when you say "strawman."
The examples you provided all could be false. XSI even posted tweets of the PD from that area that discredit it. The Wikileaks Email leaks and ProjectVeritas footage will forever cast doubt on any accusation against Trump or people on the right in general, plus the counter-tweets. The footage I have shows that people who are so left-leaning that they will attack anyone who disagrees with them actually exist.
As far as I know, most of the people who attack people because of their race and sexuality are people on the left:

The reason I have a problem with people like you is that people like you apologise for, and help spread the kind of lies and rhetoric that embolden and justify violent actors in the left. Do you even remember what you said in the post I responded to?
[Trump] ran on hate and division.
How? Aren't you the one being needlessly divisive? When people constantly yell "racist" and "sexist" to silence political opponents, it hurts the power of those words. Better yet, we now have dudes like Millenial Woes who actually admit to being racist and are growing in popularity.
Now when someone gets called one of these buzzwords, there are people who think: "Well if these SJWs hate him enough to call him racist/sexist/ect he might have a good point." All people like you had to do was to not reinforce the chorus of buzzwords with your apologia. All people like you had to do was not dehumanize people who oppose you idealogically by calling them racists and sexists. Now the backlash growing. But I'm cool with it, this particular back doesn't seem prone to starting mobs and setting shit on fire.
it's the level of volatile aggressiveness I've come to expect from American politics these last two years.
Violence is a hallmark of leftism from all over the western world:
