    “I was just doing my job” cannot be accepted as a defense of doing something immoral. In this case the rules were on the wrong side of morality, and breaking them was the right thing to do.

        People in positions of leadership and power should stand up to fascists. We are heading into a crucial election on November 5th where a christo-fascist movement, known as MAGA, is attempting to overturn our democracy. Anyone in the position to say no to fascists who has the inclination to do so should should stay in that position for the upcoming election and say no to fascists.

        You’re on the wrong side of history on this one, but that doesn’t mean we can’t talk about this. People who would otherwise agree on most things can have disagreements. That’s what is so great about democracy.

          Absolutely agree, (on the we can discuss it part, not the wrong side of history part)
