Not to justify, to magnify hypocrisy.
That would require MAGA to criticize the J6 idiots who engaged in emotional responses and violence.
When you don't openly criticize them, and instead rely on references to BLM to claim some sort of normalizing of these behaviors, then you're justifying the actions of the idiot J6 Patriots by using BLM as their lead.
I don't support BLM and think the BLM riots were terrible. I'd never use them to justify riots of my team.

The difference is between what the propagandist say and print is extremist and the other, supporter, is the truth.

I don't see what is extreme about wanting lower taxes, less government regulation, a secure border, and policies that put America and Americans First.

So that would be a leftist talking about Trump supporters.

but I don't think all Trump acolytes are necessarily extremists
Perhaps I misunderstood the question. I used "MAGA" and "Trump" interchangeably.
So I read the question as what is the difference between Trump supporters and Trump extremists? Not general political extremists.
If the question was about general political extremists I would say almost no Trump extremists are political extremists. Trump was the least conservative POTUS in my lifetime. Anybody who thinks he advocates for right wing extremism isn't paying enough attention to matter. He's authoritarian, but that isn't a function of the right or left.

Makes no difference ....The mindless fool in the White House along with his midget spokeswoman will change the definition next week ....

This only possibly makes sense if you are posting as a ghost, who died as a toddler three or so years ago.

They're literally using BLM as their excuse
This is a great example of someone whose perception is determined by their desires.
The comments about BLM weren’t justification. It was pointing out the hypocrisy of framing one as a protest and one as an insurrection.
People protested on Jan 6 because they were rightfully disturbed by the stolen election and felt that a protest was needed (as it often is in our history).
Your passive aggressive attacks on America First / MAGA does not absolve you from the attack.
MAGA believes things in this country are worse than you do. Just own that.
MAGA believes action (not violence) is necessary to save our Republic. You don’t. Just own that.
I have no idea what group you put yourself into. I suspect you are unable to define it which says a whole lot. But whoever you define yourself as, that group isn’t helping to save the country. It probably doesn’t even acknowledge there is a problem.

Patriots are not emotional people they are people with resolve. They are the kind of people that win wars that left wing professors write books about.
Of those two groups, which one do you think SFP is closest to?
These beta folk will never understand what it took and takes to deliver their price large if freedom they were born into.

One is Shiite MAGA. The other is ISIS MAGA.

Lol.
You only think if this because you can only think in 2 dimensions. You are a single variable thinker.
The truth is that most MAGA are very conservative and, as he said, would live to live in the world where they are left alone to live their life.
However, MAGA is not simply a reflection of left vs. right. There is a correction that is needed that goes beyond political ideology.

If you post all day on this board attacking everyone that supports anything other than trump, you are a freak extremist. See Dawgsantis or STDtiger.

Well BLM wasn't an insurrection, clearly. Jan 6 wasn't, either. nobody used the "I" word in this thread.
Why are you?

Sure, and some took it WAY further.

I already did when I said how emotional they were.

I used to wonder why the left just didn't use the prefix 'ultra' like they did with Ultra-Conservative. But then I thought of how it sounds....
Ultra-MAGA sounds like one of men's 'enhancer pills' they sell in naughty magazines.
