I (and many others) knew 1/6 was going to happen well before the date. They fucking broadcast their intentions loudly and publicly, but somehow the alphabet boys couldn’t put it together? The math ain’t math’n.
The chatter was much more specific, and I watched it spread from obscure channels to the wider net. I remember my girlfriend at the time mentioning that she had noticed the discourse on FB about two weeks out (I don’t have an account) and mentioned how much more serious we should be taking it. We had been aware and plugged in for a while, but that was certainly a big indicator that it had reached critical mass. If two randos with regular jobs could figure it out, the feds definitely knew at some level.
1/6 should be enough for the FBI and CIA to take this seriously

The charitable interpretation is that the fbi believed it was all false bravado and impotent rage.
Much like all the "if Obama wins, I’m moving to a different country " yammering.
