The Jan 6 people were not arrested for publishing a newspaper.
But they were "fighting for democracy" too. Give me actual information so I can judge for myself.
They were definitely not, you've got to be shitting me. They wanted their glorious Cheeto Man to still be president after he lost a democratic election
But they believe they have the silent majority behind them.
They also did a bit more than speech and assembly, if it were just that we wouldn't be imprisoning them. It doesn't matter what you believe, if you shoot your friend because you think he's a zombie and then he turns out not to be, that's still a crime
Thats my point. They said they were anyway, but thats meaningless.
