So far, the folks who have been arrested, whether FBI or local, for actual organized efforts to incite violence have all been boogaloo boys.
My guess is that there's some left wing anarchists involved as well as these right wing nut jobs.
That's a sweeping assertion. Proof ? Links ? The Boogaloo bois weren't mentioned in that John Millier report I linked above.
Who cares if they're L or R wing ? They're hiding among the protesters & need to be stopped.
John Miller?
I agree that it does not matter whether those inciting violence are left or right, they "need to be stopped".
Best way to do that is for the protestors to identify them and ostracize them...which is happening.
But since you ask for "proof":

Same story, additional details:
This was an FBI operation. It’s the only arrests made to date of actual ‘anarchist’ types.
There have been a bunch of other videos that have had the violent ‘protestors' in them identified, then tracked back to right wing racist groups.
But that one is an actual FBI arrest.
Same right wing racist group “boogaloo boys" has had others arrested, but by local law enforcement, eg

The federal authorities as well as Twitter have also identified some hate groups that have been posing online as Antifa etc:

Opportunists. Same for the left wing anarchists…it’s not that they’re so pissed off about racial justice, they just want violence for violence’s sake, to tear down the system. Capitalism and globalism are their target.
My sense is there are some really bad actors from both the whacko left and the whacko right that both want chaos, though for perhaps a bit different ideological reasons…but what they have in common is that both want to tear down the government and the system.
The legitimate protests and legitimate hot emotions provide cover for the ‘whacko' incitement of violence.
And then of course there are the organized looters and other opportunists.
