their goal was to overthrow the rule of law
that's like literally an insurrection
No it was not. It was an insurrection you're literally ignoring the definition and reality if you say otherwise.
Bringing in John Brown just shows your ass. John Brown incited a slave revolution with the goal of a full overthrow of government, an insurrection. He too held an insurrection. But your comparison to the two falls flat as John Brown was absolutely right to overthrow a corrupt slave owning government. Donald Trump attempted to overthrow a legit democracy that while you can criticize does not hold the same evil as the government John Brown faced
Horseshoe theory, insurrection isn't a blanket evil. Donald Trump's goals are selfish and harmful towards the masses, evil. John Brown's was goodhearted, righteous and true, good.
