The actual facts of Pelosi attacker David DePape's life seem to contradict early reports that he was some kind of maga extremist:

Yet, here is is portrayed as some kind of right-wing nutjob:

The evidence cited in the above article is that DePape had: "a reported history of posting far-right conspiracy theories about the election and the january 6 attack on the u.s. capitol"

cnn did an investigation that unearthed this information:

Interestingly, there is a statement in the text of the article that says cnn was unable to confirm that two blogs were actually posted by David DePape.
