If you get defrauded, blackmailed, whathaveyou, into committing a crime, it's still on your head. Yes, the fraudster bears some responsibility, but it's not like the folks who stormed the capitol had guns to their heads. They knowingly, willfully, deliberately, with pre-planning, broke the damned law.
Ironic how the folks involved are all "law and order" when it comes to most matters of policing but now that they're facing charges of sedition it's all "wait is it actually a crime if I believe that my righteous cause justifies violence?"
