Mouthing tired political mantras like, "rise up" and "take back" are hardly going to be described as treason or sedition - either then or now. Typical political cant.
(and we'd actually be in kind of sad shape if they were. can we all think 'totalitarian controls' for just a moment?)

And it's kind of a disservice to put this kind of shallow and facile rhetoric, one can hardly call it reasoned or an argument, out there.
