  That wasn’t a fucking protest. Give me a break. There’s a difference between a riot, an insurrection and a protest.

    That was literally a right wing protest about an election result. Protests aren’t always good. All those words you used have broad overlap and generally things escalate from protest to riot to insurrection.

      Coup attempts aren’t protests.

    Really? Because it seems to me the only difference is what your preferred media decide to call it.
