This is so tribal: When the Left commit or incite violence, it's OK, because they are the goodies, but woe betide anyone on the Right doing the same. Then it's evil, because they are the baddies.
Where are the academics whose job it is to understand this?
Too busy virtue-signalling their own claim to being goodies!
Instead of developing an understanding of #HumanTribalism, all they do is trivialise, ridicule or demonise it.

What is the job of political scientists, if not to understand this?
They could easily understand it, but refuse to, much as Catholic academics refused to understand Galileo.
Maybe I can help by explaining their resistance to recognising the importance of human tribalism.

"I mean maybe people should just stop being racist"
There has been an #OrwellianShift in what it means to be RACIST, which enables a moral supremacist priesthood & its lay helpers to demonise human nature, just as it is in the biblical story of the Fall (Genesis 3), as a means of socio-political rewards, intimidation & control.
Racism used to mean hatred or contempt for people of a different race, or racial supremacism regarding one's own race, which the Nazis & supporters of Jim Crow provided classic examples of.
Now, even the most mild forms of racial prejudice, conscious or not, are deemed RACIST.

Nationalism is an expression of #HumanTribalism, which state & academic authority now demonise, because of its abuse by the Nazis, & because it serves #BigBrother & his minions as a modern, secular replacement for #OriginalSin.
Just as the Nazis manipulated & exploited evolved human nature & tribalism, so too do all states, including democracies like our own; only, for mercenary, rather than evil purposes.
But mercenary purposes can have evil outcomes, as those of western democracies certainly will.
