You seem to boil down my post to: Somebody touching AOC is worse than murder. Then you argue with that absurd, specious position.

it is still a very different kind of thing that a lone wolf shooter. can you admit that? how many people do you think are into q? it's somewhere in between the 2k you cite and 74 million people. but it's pretty fucking far north from 1.

the fact that these people organized, attended a rally intended to incite them, were told to go to the capitol and fight like hell, and then stormed the place is way fucking more frightening and sad than a lone nutbar gunman.

They shouldn't have to be "pushed". When a member of a political party advocates for the assassination of their political enemies, the party should remove that person.

Don't worry, I'm sure they could find someone to replace her with who wouldn't "think we should never install another pipeline in this county or outlaw cattle".

If your party and beliefs attract and amplify people like MTG, most rational people would do some soul searching on their party and beliefs. Especially coming from the so called party of principle. I somewhat understand republicans that held their nose in 2016 and votes for trump, he was still an unknown quantity and when it comes to the presidency it’s more of a vote for your party platform, not necessarily the person (incumbents excluded).  He was a known piece of shit in 2020, but the R party rode him because he was willing to sell power for abortion judges and shit on brown people. They stopped caring about ethics, fiscal responsibility, big government, and tyranny.  Rs literally chose to sell their party to a lunatic.  Props to them for not even pretending by not having a sham party platform in the run up to 2020.

MTG on the other hand, is an absolute shit freshman in a house that Rs are in the minority.  Her losing her spot on committees does no damage to the R party or the R platform in the house.  Rs can place literally anyone else in their caucus to those seats and no one will blink. Her being expelled from the house entirely does no damage to the R party or their platform in the house. Her bumpkin district will elect another R to replace her, no question.  Even if that wasn’t the case, you went from a minority position to a minority position. Even when served an absolute layup for doing the right thing, they chose to keep riding Trump’s dick. 

The party’s problem isn’t their choice of candidates, it’s the candidates they are choosing. Boberts and MTGs are replacing “normal” republicans. It’s happening because instead of reclaiming the party, principled republicans like you keep choosing the easy path instead of the right one. And that’s why I’m a former Republican. In summary, Rs:

 

the answer is yes.

All 74m of the people you're describing are narcissists who can't make the basic connection that their decision not to solve this problem does, in fact, mean they are perfectly OK with it. They're all so full of shit that they can't see what is obvious to everyone else around them. Do you somehow think that merely deciding to file Jan 6th in the "things that are wrong" drawer in one's brain is enough to put somebody on the right side of history? That is narcissism. Nobody gives a shit how people internally taxonomize world events. Our personal opinions about the world around us are of no consequence to anybody else but ourselves. Other people only care about what you do.

The AOC “nutty shit” isn’t threatening to murder other members of Congress. 
You have said you don’t support the insurrection while admitting to voting for people who do. That’s called support. So however many people are voting Republican, unless your rep is one of the 11, is supporting the murder of other Congress members.
