I mean, is "Deny, Defend, Depose" equivalent of "Let's kill [Person]"?

To me it seems more of a "It'd be a shame if [Person] died" and not a direct threat. So do y'all personally think its considered a direct threat? And how would a court of law (in the US) see the phrase "Deny, Defend, Depose"?

I'm asking because I've seen a number of comments removed for that phrase, including one of mine.

About that... um... I kinda made a comment "Deny, Defend, Depose" followed by "Desantis"

(Exact comment in modlogs)

But it’s a nursery rhyme!

(I saw your prior comment and yeah, that could be perceived as a threat and would probably violate TOS)

(Also I wholeheartedly agree)

Not that I care but it could be mistook for threatening a us politician is just asking for unnecessary attention from the jan6 organizers...

We don't need anymore heat here.

With that being said ceos should feel like there is target on their back, maybe they can better decisions 🐸

“Depose” just means to remove from power. While it is implied that it is done in a forceful manner, it doesn’t necessarily imply violence or murder.

Yeah, that's going to fit under the instance rule, even though it is a damn good idea.

Looking at the modlog since mods are shown in federated modlogs the person who did it is not an admin. Just your average shitty powermod knowing that his name will still be mostly hidden from other people, that they can make it seem like t was admin sanctioned.

So in that case I'm willing to say PTB
