Dear free American citizens, how is it possible that ONE MAN has so much power to get his will done in every corner of the country?
Or is it the media who exaggerates his role?
Just curious
Well sure, those donors can read the writing on the authoritarian wall:
Cross the Trump admin in any way, shape, or form, and you'll be arrested, and whisked off to prison, no due process required.
In our society, when a criminal uses an innocent bystander as a shield, the police do not blow the bystander to pieces to get to the criminal, but here you are advocating for exactly that.
Trump wants to punish universities for... free speech?
So much for 'land of the free.' Meanwhile, billionaire megadonors are too busy funding their next tax break to care. The hypocrisy writes itself. #FascismInDisguise #FreeSpeechUnlessYouDisagree
Academic freedoms are being suffocated by outside forces like the Federalist Society and big donors like BP. Free and open universities are foundational to liberty for all.
Weaponizing education against dissent? This chills free speech & hurts students. How do we ensure universities remain spaces for critical thought, not echo chambers for power? #PublicGood How do we fund education fairly so donors don't dictate policy?
