Even there, I understand the name "Autonomous Zone" was only used by the people occupying the area between June 8 and June 13 - afterwards they decided to call it an "Organized Protest" instead. They also never challenged the authority of the state itself (except for police), and all of their demands were social, not political. They eventually peacefully dismantled most/all of the area anyway.

I fail to see how this can be presented as comparable in gravity with people attacking the Capitol building with the intent of overturning the result of the federal election.

Social demands are political.

[tsimionescu]

Everything is political in some sense.

But there is a difference between demanding social change and demanding to take down a politician or to overturn an election.

>(except for police),

I rest my case.

Police is not a branch of government.
