If the coup is supported by the masses and actually replaces the government itself, then yes. If it’s not supported by the masses, or merely replaces the leadership of the existing government, then no.
Don’t get me wrong, i do firmly believe i know what everyone else is thinking at all times-i am a poster, after all, but i do need to update those models from time to time. Not to imply i would ever change what i believe based on external inputs or evidence; im not some kind of freak.
And not that i seek genuine human connection or anything, but i do just enjoy going down the rabbit hole of someone else’s thought process from time to time-not that im incapable of doing that entirely in my mind palace or that i cannot run a perfect simulation of your pitiful thinkmeat on my glorious cerebellum, because i totally can, im just being a hipster about avoiding total solipsism, is all.
So, coups are a category of revolution?
If the coup is supported by the masses and actually replaces the government itself, then yes. If it’s not supported by the masses, or merely replaces the leadership of the existing government, then no.
Oh. So it needs to be supported by ‘the masses’; whatvpercentage?
I’d say 50%+, but I’m sure various political historians would draw the line in various places.
And is that 50% of the pre revolution population, or 50% of the post revolution population?
Let’s say pre, what are you trying to demonstrate with this line of questions?
Im just asking questions. Curious as to what you believe.
Why?
Intellectual curiosity about my fellow lemmings?

Ibrahim Traoré? Although there may be issues there, too.
