Still a false equivalency.
They were not ordered to do so by the sitting president of the United States.
They did not announce they were going to do it ahead of time, and they were actually met with a law enforcement response.
The claims of their grievances were not made up from whole cloth, (I'm not saying they were justified, I am just saying they were operating within the bounds of reality when the formulated their complaints).
Your comparison only servers the more egregious conspiracy theorists goal of making themselves sound legitimate. If you want to talk about how stupid the people in the free zone were, I'm sure there is a thread about that and you wont get a lot of flack from people.
