    No, this is false. That way lies fascism. Anyone with expertise, academics included, has a responsibility to call out elected officials who are acting badly or advocating bad policies.

    Elected officials have a responsibility to the people, one of which is to not punish private citizens for speaking their mind.

    I mean holy fuck. Abuse of power doesn’t get much more obvious then this.
