If you abdicate/abrogate all your duties as a citizen just to be loyal/faithful to an extremely defective man aren't you a traitor? If not what are you and why?

I want to have the brains it takes to have my entire career consist of black holes and wormholes and time travel and event horizons and quantum entanglement and gravity and and and and.

WHY it is used is even keyer.

That is exactly what despots/dictators do. They have state-owned TV and whatever goes out to the public is approved by those in control. Why? Because they are AFRAID of ideas... moreThat is exactly what despots/dictators do. They have state-owned TV and whatever goes out to the public is approved by those in control. Why?
