The climate change group showed up in Washington D.C. and then blocked all ten entrances to the White House, sitting in roads and taking over guard shacks. This was done as part of a demand to include a "civilian climate corps" in the recent infrastructure deal, which is a favorite pet project of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Joe Biden’s police force is aggressively dispersing peaceful youth protestors and arresting our comrades participating in a high-risk action — all so Biden can avoid accountability for his campaign promises and remain beholden to fossil fuels. @sunrisemvmt#NoClimateNoDeal pic.twitter.com/Q8RkGbnkpV

Now, I'm no expert, but I've been assured that this kind of trespassing in an attempt to stop the machinations of government is called an "insurrection," though, I personally believe that descriptor is ludicrous in all these cases (which is why I put the word in quotes in the headline). Regardless, the Secret Service did start to arrest and remove these people.
As January 6 defendants languish in solitary confinement, beaten by guards, and hunted down by the FBI for misdemeanor trespass, far left wing activists get tickets for shutting down the White House - a goal they confessed to.

Did you get that? If you are a left-wing activist trespassing on federal property in order to make demands of Congress, you not only don't go to jail, you get let free the same day without so much as a ticket for your troubles (or if they were ticketed, they aren't saying). And yes, despite a lot of the media's framing, almost everyone arrested on January 6th only committed the grand crime of misdemeanor trespassing according to the DOJ itself.
Further, these people were clearly prompted by Ocasio-Cortez given they were trespassing to promote her legislative baby. Will the press investigate her and accuse her of fomenting unrest? I think we know the answer to that.
Two justice systems, dependent on political views. We are not supposed to have political prisoners in the US.
