I don’t see that he actually said that. At most, the article quotes him as asking if revolution is necessary:

“So that’s the question,” he tells Klingenstein. “Have the abuses or the threat of abuses become so intolerable that we have to be willing to push back?”

“There’s actually a provision in the Declaration of Independence that a people will suffer abuses while they remain sufferable, tolerable while they remain tolerable,” he said. “At some point abuses become so intolerable that it becomes not only their right but their duty to alter or abolish the existing government.”

(From the interview)

As an explanation for his Jan 6 related activities, ‘it was our duty to alter or abolish the existing government’ is pretty close to ‘hell yes’

I like how they say they’re “suffering abuses” while trying to force religion on people, force LGBTQ back into the closet, while they resist police reform because it protects them and oppresses minorities, while they protect white supremacists and literal Nazis, while they support the big businesses killing us all with capitalism.

Their way of thinking is literally just DARVO on a national scale.

Do we have a c/lone of r/persecutionfetish yet? Because this Eastman statement belongs on that sub, what an asshole.
