I'll go with this one, from Cambridge Dictionary:
"an attack on a building or town in which a lot of destruction is caused and many valuable things are stolen"
> ... and you think that's "about as peaceful an outcome as we could possibly have hoped for"?
Yes, as peaceful as we could have hoped for, considering that many of these people believe a satanic cult has undermined the US government and defrauded their rightful president out of a second term.
> I genuinely don't understand. This is the kind of operation of government that is supposed to never be disruptible. If past mobs knew it was this easy then we could have had a zillion coups by now.
You don't automatically achieve a coup by entering some building and interrupting some bureaucratic process, no matter how symbolic it may be. Biden got elected.
> This is still unimaginably bad.
You must lack imagination.
