I don't know - seems more like a meme to me. Multiple identical headlines, pushing the same assumptions. If you'd have been in church on Sunday, most likely you WOULD have heard the violence condemned. I did.

Hmmm....
"The First Amendment protects the rights of all Americans to speak their minds peaceably, but violence, brutality, and murder have no place in a civilized society.
The Nazis, the KKK, and white supremacists are repulsive and evil, and all of us have a moral obligation to speak out against the lies, bigotry, anti-Semitism, and hatred that they propagate. Having watched the horrifying video of the car deliberately crashing into a crowd of protesters, I urge the Department of Justice to immediately investigate and prosecute this grotesque act of domestic terrorism.
These bigots want to tear our country apart, but they will fail.
America is far better than this. Our Nation was built on fundamental truths, none more central than the proposition ‘that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness."

Clearly you weren't in the same church as I was Sunday morning for the Bible study group, the morning service, or from what my wife tells me, evening service and the GrandMa's service group.
So what's the standard? Is my grange hall President implicitly endorsing White Nationalism and White Supremacy because they haven't issued a denunciation? I haven't heard anything from the President of the Rod and Gun Club, guess I better quit that, and the Fire Chief of the VRFD and Rescue Squad, better quit that too.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Elements of both sides left their homes and assembly areas armed. Elements of both sides arrived armed. Elements of both sides came spoiling for a fight. Elements of both sides kept their arms and used them. Who initiated what at various points of the day, will hopefully be decided in the courts and be severely punished.
The vehicular assault was by no means the first battle of the day. I have no idea if the people hit by the vehicle were combatants from earlier in the day. Sane people would have vacated the area once they realized the National Guard and the Police were not able to maintain control.
