Anyone calling Jan 6 an "insurrection" or "attempted coup" deserves to be ignored.

That is why I have not participated in this thread until now.

Cue "Russian troll" in 3 ...2 ...

And now, putting this back on "ignore".

American Guy Fawkeses

In the wee hours of November 5, 1605, a mercenary named Guy Fawkes was busted in a basement beneath the House of Lords with enough explosives to blow the place to smithereens. That was, indeed, the plan. He and his co-conspirators intended to detonate the explosives during the State Opening of Parliament later that day, with the aim of killing King James I and everyone else inside.

For this obvious treason, Fawkes was arrested, put to the torture, convicted, and sentenced to death. Only a tumble from the gallows on the day of his execution, in which he broke his neck, saved him from being hanged, drawn, and quartered—a fate that befell the co-conspirators he betrayed while on the rack.

Guy Fawkes was not pardoned so he could start his own pro-blowing-up-Parliament podcast, on which he championed further attempts at regicide. I could go on for many pages about the fate of history’s failed insurrectionists. It almost always ends the same way: they die. Maybe they are killed trying to escape, maybe they are executed; in the end, they don’t live to fight another day. Which is the point.

Capital punishment wasn’t meted out because older societies were inherently crueler. There was a good reason, which is: Execution prevents further treason. The surest way to stop Guy Fawkes from trying again to blow up the House of Lords is to blow up Guy Fawkes. This isn’t hard to grasp.

January 6 was the worst attack on our democracy since Booth shot Lincoln. While Booth acted alone at Ford’s Theater, he was part of a larger plot to overthrow the government. One of his conspirators attacked, but failed to kill, William Seward, the Secretary of State. Another lost his nerve, opting against assassinating Andrew Johnson, the Vice President. Others gave material aid to the plotters. Do you know what happened to these traitors, the so-called Lincoln conspirators? Booth was hunted down and killed by a U.S. marshal. His mates were arrested, convicted, and hanged.

I’m not saying we should get medieval on our current crop of traitors. It’s probably not wise to grant the government the power to execute people, even evil people, even the worst of the worst. But that doesn’t mean we should let bygones be bygones and chalk armed insurrection up to foolish indiscretion or mass MAGA hysteria. Violent attempts to overthrow the government should not be treated like jaywalking or smoking joints at the Barry Manilow concert in Central Park. When it comes to treason, I’d rather we err on the side of Hammurabi.

In addition to Trump himself, there are four powerful and dangerous men involved with the Big Lie: Mike Flynn, Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, and Erik Prince. All four have run afoul of the law. Three have been indicted, two convicted—and three pardoned, corruptly, by the outgoing Former Guy. They are all clearly bad guys. And yet they remain free to ply their seditious trade, which mostly involves poisoning American minds with disinformation and propaganda cooked up by foreign intelligence services.

The researcher of QAnon James Stewartson gave a succinct explanation to Heidi Cuda of the Byline Times on how these four men fit together: “Mike Flynn is the psyops guy and the general. . . Roger Stone spreads the propaganda on various media outlets, along with Steve Bannon who brings the billionaires and runs enormous targeting and propaganda operations. Erik Prince trains everybody and executes specific targeting operations from training centres in Wyoming, North Carolina, and Virginia. He trains physical troopers, but he also trains psychological terrorists.”

The disgraced general and felon Mike Flynn, convicted as part of the Mueller investigation only to be pardoned before sentencing, has been

Jan 6 was not a coup, or even an attempt.

That doesn't mean there wasn't a real coup at a different time.



The real coup happened when PRESIDENT Trump, COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF, ORDERED THE US MILITARY to get OUT OF SYRIA, and IT DIDN'T.

And when Trump found out and got on TV to say what the military told him to say - it's about the oil - is when they demonstrated that Trump doesn't run the military, the military runs Trump.

Now THAT'S a coup.


ETA: Did anyone notice how well controlled the m$m was about that?

After relentlessly criticizing Trump for

things they said he did, but didn't do,
things he said, but didn't do
things they thought he should have done, but didn't do

they mildly complained about him saying it was about the oil. And it got maybe 2 days of coverage on network news. Then it disappeared.

I guess I'm supposed to believe that after all that time when, according to the m$m, Trump could do no right, the media suddenly decided 'eh, well Trump says it's OK so it must be OK'.
