Why are you arguing that the person burning that police car must be “progressive”?
I mean, I’m not real into extended arguments about what words mean what things. The main point I took is that this kind of political vandalism is much more commonly the tactic of right-wing agitators, especially when the target is conveniently one of the highest-profile left people in power in government and the grounds for the attack are so flimsy and nonsensical from a standpoint of actually trying for change for the Palestinian people by someone who cares about Palestinian people.
I agree with that point. If you want to get into extended semantics to distract from that argument into some kind of hair-splitting about particular words, I’m going to take it as you don’t really have any substantive way to disagree with it.

They’re not police cars. They’re self-driving cars, and the photo was taken at the anti-ICE rioting in Los Angeles.
You have to be a special brand of stupid to set an electric vehicle on fire.
Old and busted: Tying burning tufts of wool to the sparrows and cats and letting them loose in the enemy city to set the whole thing on fire
New hotness: Lighting the electric vehicles on fire and letting them drive through the streets on their programming, and cause mayhem
Far as I recall, the electric vehicle’s cameras were (perhaps illegally) used against the protesters for surveillance and identification purposes.
They were driverless taxis, cunningly parked up at a taxi rank. The devious bastards.
