I withdraw my position about US government and twitter.

>They don't call it insurrection only because "seditious conspiracy" is the more legally accurate term, and the charge on which convictions have already been obtained.

I think I saw this on twitter. I'm not going to argue over this one. Even the wikipage extensively uses the word insurrection still.

This is a super non-issue. In fact, the differing reactions and hard line take on these contemporary political protests is all that matters.

I could also point out, but it won't help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_efforts_to_restrict...

Elon isn't too late. Seemingly he's ahead of me on this one. I didn't realize how bad it is.

I just hope Canada and Mexico stay out of this.
