      Isn’t there a journalism rule about not having a headline be a question with a yes or no answer? Seems like there should be.

            I wouldn’t call it an exception (although there are always exceptions), the problem here lies in the word “sympathizers”, it’s too ambiguous. The answer is technically no, they’re just conservatives who are technically not insurrectionist sympathizers. But they are.

                Of course it’s convoluted reasoning, I’m repeating what the conservatives believe? The effort does not come from me.

                Let’s not pretend they openly admit it was anything close to an insurrection, theyre just trying to “bring us back to Jesus”. We all know what it was and what they are trying to do

              I’d say - the term enablers would be more apt.

        To be fair, this seems more like a yes or really yes question.
