Yes, I’m here for rational conversation and debate. However, my disagreement with your logic stems from the fact that the word “overthrow” is an incredibly broad term that has many implications. “Overthrow” can mean change via violence, for sure, but it can also and very legitimately just mean changing the system of power by any number of means. You can “overthrow” a governing system/apparatus via elections, via protests, via incremental reform, via constitutional changes, and yes, via violence.

I fully understand the sentiment, and I’ve heard similar statements from alumni where I work (UT Austin), as our university also bends the knee to authoritarianism. However, you shouldn’t be embarrassed by your degree! You worked hard for it, and you can’t control the actions of a cowardly university administration.

You can think that all you want, but embrace this authoritarianism at your peril. All of these expansive powers will be in the hands of someone you dont agree with in the future.

What this faculty member was saying (in more academic terms) was this system sucks, we need to get rid of it. If youre prepared to have people lose their jobs for that kind of sentiment, think how broad that is. I know people across the political spectrum who share such sentiments. Often.

It has to do with the removal of folks for their political or ideological beliefs (aka the point of this post).

The only real insurrection that’s happened in the US in recent times was led by MAGA (and fully equipped with a gallows to hang the Vice President).

“There will come a time when a Democrat wins again, wins the White House,” Cruz said. “They will silence us. They will use this power, and they will use it ruthlessly.” This is what I’ve been saying to others who embrace this authoritarianism at their own peril: All of these expansive powers will be in the hands of someone you dont agree with in the future.

No surprise, but the hypocrisy of Republicans moving quickly to restrict free speech while they celebrate Kirk as a “free speech advocate” sums up the situation we’re in well.

Consider it weak all you want, but it’s the only actual insurrection that’s taken place in the US in recent times. As you seem very concerned about violent insurrections, that makes it incredibly relevant to this discussion.
