I only purchased this toothbrush because that was the only way to get the water-resistant Corporate Surveillance Device that I wanted for the bathroom.
The protestors against the nomination and selection of kavenaugh did not breach the doors, nobody died, proceedings were not disrupted, the aim of the protestors was not to lynch the sitting vice president and overthrow the government but to say “we shouldn’t hire a rapist,” no congresspersons toured the kav protestors, no congresspersons tweeted the live location of potential targets, … What, exactly, in your definition qualifies an insurrection? Could you define the word right now for us without looking it up? Would any dictionary agree with that definition?
This feeble attempt at rewriting history is shivering nude, though I admit I am glad you agree that J6 was an insurrection, even if to get there you had to draw this false equivalence.

You don’t just get to make an assertive claim without supporting evidence, even if it’s in contradiction of another assertive claim. That which can be asserted without evidence (like the opinion you express here, supported by the merest incredulity) can be dismissed without evidence (like everyone here is doing of your opinion).
If you want to contradict the claim made without asserting your own claim contrary to, you must actually address the evidences for that claim, undermining, subverting, proving them false. This, successfully done, would lead an outside skeptic to the null hypothesis of “I don’t know,” rather than your frankly misogynistic hypothesis of, paraphrasing, “women don’t know what they’re talking about.”
