The problem is that every story has two sides. All the things you've mentioned could be either justified or reframed/recontextualized in such a way that it sounds positive not negative. Not that I'm interested in doing that. Some right wing commentator probably already does that. 

Yes. Everything has an infinite amount of possible perspectives on it.

You asked what they are rebelling against. What I listed is a general overview.

And not every viewpoint has something useful to contribute, which is why we don't need to give Nazis (and their American equivalents) a seat at the table.

Malicious bullshit loves nothing more than to be treated as a legitimate perspective - the harm these viewpoints cause isn’t an unintended byproduct, but a deliberate strategy for achieving ends that honest methods can’t reach.

Everyone thinks we're the good guys and others are the bad guys. Allowing everyone to sit at the table and talk is the most concious way of dealing with conflict, otherwise "when diplomacy ends, war begins"

After seeing what is happening in America, I have come to the conclusion that the fascist viewpoint has to be exterminated, similar to denazification after World War II.   Trump had all the power (executive and the congress) and what did he do with that power? Answer:  Death, tears, and broken bones.  Nothing good has come of it for the people – inflation, unaffordable medical care, housing crisis, etc.   That is why they have to provoke violence to the point where they label a soccer mom in her car a terrorist. Because their philosophy can’t produce anything good.  I fully support Europe in suppressing this menace with all the means at their disposal.
