Overall that looks like a pretty hyperbolic statement rather than a credible threat.
Whereas "kill Mike Pence" after a group storms the Capitol building sounds a lot less hyperbolic.

Because for years, Trump's administration (I don't recall but maybe Obama's also) is fighting against "Fake News", forcing platforms to do fact checking "or else". A new platform emerging, promoting its lack of control over that will irremediably leads to huge abuses and scandals. It's just a matter of time. A massive scandal over a year, a closure over two or three tops.
