No, it's not hyperbole. I was at the Portland protests this summer, and nothing even close to this happened. They'd have gone to mass use of tear gas and less lethal munitions long before that point, and if by some improbable chance a context like the above video push into a building arose, there's no question in my mind the CBP and related agency unmarked officers would have just straight up opened fire.
There are two standards at work in how protests are treated. This is a factual matter, not an opinion. It doesn't mean every protester on the left is a blameless, as obviously that's a straw man position on its face. But the disparity in how violence is used, and in particular how early its used is very clear. You can't just handwave that away. Likewise you can't handwave away that showing up with military style gear and loaded firearms is a defining feature of right wing protests that is not duplicated on the left.
