    Except if you’re willfully being ignorant or arguing in bad faith, it’s been known that Russia and China have been meddling in elections.

        Lmao, I only see one side actively engaging in coup like behavior. Care to explain your idiotic stance, or will you do us all the favor and not reply?

          Jan 6 is a dog and pony show for liberals to keep them rallied up. Absolutely nothing will come of it other than charging the low hanging fruit. It’s the liberal version of ‘lock her up,’ red meat for the rabid dogs.

            You’re equating apples and oranges, and the fact that there was an attempt to overthrow the government is a nothingburger to you. it just makes it clear not to take you seriously. You’re a joke like your opinions and your sad pathetic existence.

              The DOJ doesn’t see it as an attempt to overthrow the government either. Nearly four years later and they still have no charges against trump.

                  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.

                    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?

                    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.
