I count myself in that fan base.
95% of the fan base is there because they do not want the right of self defense to be gutted beyond recognition.
1)The Rittenhouse verdict was important considering what was they were trying to also do with the Mcloskey's for simply defending their home in Missouri.

2) Besides that we do not want social justice mob violence and coercion to be normalized in our society as a way for lobbying for progressive causes and considered something that is their due the way they look at illegal immigration as a right, and some even looting by some (considered simply a means of wealth redistribution to the working class). It it ironic all the "To kill a Mockingbird" type movies, news articles etc. but the left has their own version of this when it comes to trying to coerce the outcomes of court trials, and the policy of politicians.
3) By the way it is also ironic considering what has been done for the trespassers of Jan 6 they through the book at them in a way, they never did for all the leftwing thugs, arsonists, rioters and looters of 2020. Their were so many more deaths and injuries and major crimes occurring at the CHOP / CHAZ, George Floyd zone, Portland autonomous zone than the "Capitol riot" and most of these were never charged!
I actually think based on the circumstantial evidence like film clips that much of the damage of Jan 6, was due to Antifa and BLM folks infiltrating the Trump protest and doing things like removing crowd barriers, breaking windows, and throwing rocks.
