@mtaibbi Tulsi Gabbard literally supported the J6 insurrectionalists. I’m an actual lawyer, and I can tell you that the first amendment is no protection against speech that encourages insurrection against the nation, and such people (like Gabbard) can be legally sanctioned.

No, this involves a former presidential candidate and member of congress, someone with no connection to J6.

@mtaibbi I agree. But can I ask: is the pres Biden admin doing some equivalent at the moment?

I presume from context this is J6 stuff but I want to confirm. J6 wasn't good and some of the prosecutions were overwrought as the SCotUS affirmed. But that seems a bit different than the above.

The statement 'Oh shit - who can tell? My bad' is a brief, informal response in a larger conversation about political figures and the January 6th insurrection. The tone is casual and somewhat dismissive, indicating a possible realization of a mistake or misunderstanding.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not appear to cause harm directly, but its casual tone in a serious discussion could be seen as dismissive.
  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.
  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; it is more of a flippant acknowledgment of a mistake.
  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; it is a brief acknowledgment without further engagement. [-1]
  5. Principle 5:
    I will acknowledge and correct my mistakes.
    The statement acknowledges a mistake, which is a positive aspect. [+1]
  6. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement does not significantly contribute to public discourse but does not violate the principles of free speech.
