I'm not sure what this what-aboutism has to do with Trump flag waving rioters attempting to stop (and temporarily succeeding in stopping) the election vote count.
- ALittleLight 5y agoIt's not "What-aboutism". I'm taking an event where I assume we both agree - in this example CHAZ was not a succession it was a protest that went out of control, and saying that the January 6th event was essentially similar. In both cases you could use hyperbolic language (secession or civil war versus coup or insurrection) but the reality is just not as dramatic. January 6th is much more like a protest turned riot than it is a coup or insurrection.
