They don't call them Biden supporters because Biden was irrelevant to their causes. Antifa finds Biden a centrist if not far-right. Many in the Black Lives Matter movement don't think Biden will do enough to protect black people.
But the real point is that even if they had loved him, they weren't fighting for Biden so much as (at least in name) fighting for black lives and fighting against fascism. Just calling them Biden supporters would make no sense, whereas the people who attacked the Capitol were literally sent straight from a pro-Trump rally by Trump himself and were fighting for Trump, often chanting quite literally, "Fight for Trump!"
It makes clear sense why they'd be referred to as Trump supporters as supporting Trump was their cause. This isn't even a left-versus-right type of thing here. I'm just saying the terminology makes sense as they were supporting Trump whereas BLM and Antifa don't really give a damn about Biden and were there for other causes, right or wrong.
That sounds like a media talking point you conveniently cherry pick the capital event,what about all the events over the last year same thing applied and I agree most of them were Trump supporters but when's the last time you heard the media or Dems call them the freedom first or great American or America first organization supporters. They won't because that implies there are groups or organizations out there that support Trump. The only time you'll here a group is kkk or Nazis, something that already has a negitive effect. You can say BLM and anifa weren't Biden supporters but they were Dem funded, Dem suported, refund or reallocate police funds were rallying cry's from the riots and Dems all the way to Biden. Harris even helped pay the bail of those arrested. But the media still failed to call them Biden supporters. Just an outsiders view point
It's not lossed on the trump supporters of the blatant double standards. That's why it's so heated as we are right now. At some point theres going to be a "fuck it, we are already going to be called terrorist for protesting" mindset.
Still 20k national guard in dc for inauguration day. Highly unusual since there was no plans to do anything for inauguration day, everything was planned for the 6th.
What a crock of bs
