    Buildings burn and people die when overthrow is attempted. Therefore that’s exaggeration.

        Look at those downvotes.

        What did I say that was so bad?

        What do you think is going on here?

          You stated that “overthrow” is an exaggeration because buildings didn’t burn or whatever. That’s not the definition of overthrow.

          The fact is, people tried to overturn the US Presidential Election by extralegal means including force, with the intent of putting in place an illegitimate leader. That meets the definition of overthrow and insurrection.

          Of course, if you are operating on right wing propaganda instead of facts, you won’t agree.

          And if your epistemology is clouded with superstitious thinking and unchecked cognitive biases, you won’t ever be able to see through the bullshit.

            That seems rather simplistic and idealistic. Like a cartoon.
