      A bunch of guys waving flags is hardly a coup. A coup is an attempt to seize power, running the halls of congress is hardly trying to seize power. It was nothing but a group of people that perceived it as a redress of grievances.

      Some of us have things to do other than wait in continuing conversations with strangers online.

        Bro…

        I think you probably wanna restrict the “J6 was a peaceful protest” stuff to some of your other accounts that hold some other ostensible viewpoints (probably fully off Lemmy, instead in some place where people get their news more in short-form-video-with-text-over-it format). It will absolutely not get traction here and it will absolutely cause people to look at your account and its motivations in a WHOLE different light.

        Wow, I guess attempting to overturn the presidential election and the will of the people doesn’t constitute as an attempt to overthrow the government. The fact they made plans and conspired to do all of this doesn’t ring any alarms to you? As I said before, you’re a joke.

        Oh, and bringing gallows to this so-called “addressing of grievances” to hang the vice president is totally normal, too, right?
