I thought we were talking about Trump?

The 6th January capitol attack was an attempted coup, what's happening now is Gleichschaltung. Please read up on "Gleichschaltung" [1] if you think that's in any way or form less of an condemnation as "coup".

"Gleichschaltung" is literally just how the administrative coup was implemented in Nazi Germany. Just because you'd rather talk about the logistics of how to coup once you are already in power doesn't make it not a coup.


I disagree, but I promised @brendoelfrendo to cease this line of argument for all our sakes. Get out there and protest instead of arguing against me!
