Capitol rioter compares attacks on her to treatment of ‘Jews in Germany’ (yahoo.com)
Capitol rioter Jenna Ryan speaks out before federal prison sentence (today.com)
From the article:
If you don't want to be seen as a caricature then don't put yourself out there as one.
And of course, what can I even say about the "Jews in Germany" remark - it just says it all about her victim mentality. She feels as though being held responsible for her own actions and words makes her a victim of persecution exactly how a Jew in Germany would be thrown into a concentration camp and tortured until killed. This is what this woman thinks. And the worst thing about this is that she even KNOWS that it is wrong to compare herself to the victims of the Holocaust because she goes on to acknowledge that she doesn't want to repeat it and that she knows others have also been criticized for saying it.
Why is nobody on the conservative side calling for accountability and responsibility on her part? Why is every conservative silent about this woman's attitude and behavior? I can only surmise it's because they empathize and relate to her and her mindset. Perhaps I'm wrong - someone can feel free to show me where my conclusion is wrong.
The second link above is her interview on the TODAY show this morning. She certainly seems regretful, but not for what she did so much as for being caught and being held accountable. She brought her prison sentence upon herself in so many ways and on so many levels.
Sadly and quite pathetically she says in that interview "I wish people would change their minds and love me". I pray for her that she turns to Jesus so that His Love can fill the void in her soul and help her repent and change from her foolish and self-destructive ways.

From the article:
No, we have an idea what her beliefs are. A very good idea, in fact, based on what she herself has broadcasted to the world.“They have no idea who I am as a person, what my beliefs are, what I’ve been through, who I am," she added. "They see me as a one-dimensional caricature. They don’t see me as a human.”
"And so, that is the epitome of a scapegoat. Just like they did that to the Jews in Germany. Those were scapegoats. And I believe that people who are Caucasian are being turned into evil in front of the media.”
Pressed whether she was comparing the situation to the Holocaust, Ryan said she was reluctant to say more.
“You know what’s so sad?” she responded. “That I’m afraid to answer your question because I will be attacked for saying that.”
She said other people have made the same comparison and that she “definitely” feels she is being persecuted.
