Germans stormed their parliament in August of 2020. Did it inspire provocateurs on the left?

It looks as if someone on the left saw what happened in Germany and figured out a way to cause it to happen here, in order to embarrass the right.

Clearly it wasn't the rioters themselves who were inspired because they show no evidence of planning. They would have had four + months to come up with a plan, but they looked like they had no plan at all.

When there was a demonstration riled up by military and fighting talk, the provocateurs sprung the trap, perhaps by having someone let the protesters in where they weren't supposed to be.
