    Yes, like the insurrection? Always remember, both sides can do that.

    Edit: Oh so now violent revolution attempts are not OK.

    All this guillotine and revolution rhetoric suddenly just memes? Like the slurs in ye’ old gamer chats?

    Then what is protest good for, if not getting votes?

      Insurrection != political protest.

      Do cause a ruckus in the city streets.

      Do not attempt to invade the capitol and/or murder the government.

      Just like a hammer, political protest is a tool. Using a hammer to smash a nail in a wall: good. Using a hammer to smash someones brain in: bad.

        Yes, when turnabout is invoked you don’t get to say “but I was right!” as if they’ll just stop and recognize that
