It was the scale of lying that is comparable, not the scale of the event being lied about. Marcuse May 2021 #8

And you can include relevant replies by just posting the link as you did the original Tweet. I often get a kick out of some of the replies - thought that last one was particularly scathing...

...that outrageous thing, what was the first thought that came to your mind? That he might be right? Or that he was attempting to gaslight us by trivializing an attempt ro overthrow the US government?

The scale of the lie is breathtaking. We all got to see the putsch on live TV.

Jan. 6th 2021 was no more of a peaceful protest than Pearl Harbor was a peaceful air show on December 7th 1941.

I'd like to submit the Wehrmact parading down the Champs-Élysées as tourists.

If you can pretend Jan 6 2021 was no big deal, you've already wandered off into the same patch of ground.
