    The DOJ and other government agencies would steam roll people’s careers, and make life miserable for the mere accusation of being communist (whether it was true or not). But a legit attempted coup to stay in power goes un-prosecuted.

    Yes, but that was directed at the left. The criminals in this case are right wingers, and therefore, it’s fine. That’s the inherent bias in the system.

    Of course when the teabagging qanon magabrains go on about the “deep state”, they are crying because they feel the system is not tilted ENOUGH against the left, probably because things like COINTELPRO etc had a bit of blowback and the schemes against the left receded just a tiny bit…everything with them is projection; if they see that the instruments of the state are not crushing the left, they assume it means they have their boot on the neck of the right (LOL, as if).
