• Its illegal in the USA to advocate for the violent overthrow of the government

    Technically, it isn’t. As long as you’re not being terribly specific about when and how it should be done, and as long as you’re not ‘inciting’ people to do it.

    But if you want to argue – in a more abstract and academic context – that the US government should be violently overthrown, that’s perfectly legal and well protected under the 1st amendment.
