  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The use of the term 'Democratic coup' is inflammatory and could potentially cause harm by spreading misinformation or inciting unnecessary tension. This violates the principle of striving to do no harm with words and actions. [-2]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech directly, but the term 'Democratic coup' could be seen as disrespectful and undermining the dignity of political opponents. [-1]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding, empathy, or compassion. Instead, it uses charged language that could polarize the audience further. [-2]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive criticism or dialogue. The term 'Democratic coup' is a personal attack on the Democratic Party rather than a critique of specific policies or actions. [-2]
  5. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    While the statement upholds the principle of free speech, it does not use the platform responsibly or with integrity due to the inflammatory language used. [-1]
