I mean, is “Deny, Defend, Depose” equivalent of “Let’s kill [Person]”?

To me it seems more of a “It’d be a shame if [Person] died” and not a direct threat. So do y’all personally think its considered a direct threat? And how would a court of law (in the US) see the phrase “Deny, Defend, Depose”?

I’m asking because I’ve seen a number of comments removed for that phrase, including one of mine.

    It’s not a direct threat, but it is definitely advocating violence in the same way that “wouldn’t it be a shame if” does.

    It’s not a direct call to action, but you’re definitely saying it should happen.
