    The news outlets I saw reporting on this were mostly calling out that violence was started by agitators rather than counter-protestors

        [One way of reading the comment you replied to is that] the point is that the media is both-sides-ing this instead of truthfully reporting that the violence was directed against the protestors. This allows the protests to be portrayed as “radical” and feeds into the false “pro-terrorism” and “extremist” narrative being portrayed against Gazan and Palestinian sympathizers.
