I just disagree with softening the word by adding “soft” at the beginning. A soft coup is a coup. Date rape is still rape, candy-corn-murder is still murder. No need to add prefixes to try and categorize them, and artificially make some sort of hierarchy.

By naming it any less than a coup, and holding all coups to the same standard, it’s an attempt to soften it, and I am against that.

A federal prosecutor has always dedicated her career to building “internment camps” but a literal coup that led to several deaths was “soft”?

I don’t see “attempted a coup when she lost an election and still denies losing to this day” so my mind is still set.
