IDK. But, I think we've have been treading too carefully for too long. We've spent too long trying to not to step on toes. We soften our language not to offend liars by calling their drivel "lies." We watch swathes of extremists lay seige to the capitol and we call it "protest" or a "riot" – or we use words of which most people don't really grasp the meaning, like "insurgents." (Let's be clear. They were not rioters or insurgents. They were criminals and terrorists.)

Right now, our leaders are so worried about an appearance of abusing power that they are letting the criminal who orchestrated violance against our democracy roam free, fomenting further violence.
