RCI denying 1/6 was a coup is well known so I was curious to see if they thought the same when it came to Bolsonaro trying to stop Lula from taking office. Turns out in the link at the bottom they do acknowledge that what happened in Brazil was a coup.

How does RCI square this circle? Bolsonaro openly modeled his election denialism and coup off of 1/6. How is the original not a coup but the remix is? Legitimately confusing how they can have conflicting stances on this.
