treason: "the offense of attempting by overt acts to overthrow the government of the state to which the offender owes allegiance." traitor: "... 2 : a person who betrays his or her country : a person who commits treason." all the talk of 1776 is pretty clear - overthrowing a democratic government with force. this was forgivable when the authority was a king back in 1776 - but mob violence against an elected administration is treason against democracy and the republic. it's just that simple. it will be interesting to look back a year from now and see how many of these idiots are in prison for their violent insurrection. and yes, mr. rat : AP is decentralized tyranny. violence is a cheat and shortcut to social order; local maxima are never globally optimal. best regards,
