Go ahead and zap those and leave an edit reason stating that such edits aren't appropriate. We can gauge what to do next depending on how they respond.

.....you cannot seriously tell me you (general) object to portraying the attempted violent overthrow of the United States government, aided and abetted by the sitting President, as a bad thing??

What the hell has happened to this site??

This isn't objecting to protraying the attacks as a bad thing, it's just these edits violate the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgement.

Yeah, it's good to remove edits that attempt to downplay the Capitol riots, but at the same time they shouldn't be shoehorned where they don't belong.

Rose: Lemme put it this way. I consider Donald Trump to be an evil son of a bitch. That doesn't mean that the TV Tropes article about him should call him an evil son of a bitch.

I think you get where I'm going.
