    Tyrannical regimes certainly do try.

    We aren’t at the Khmer Rouge stage where the government sets their students against their professors, but - never say never. The conservatives have a long, simmering hatred of intellectuals. Sure, they are a fringe minority, but it doesn’t take the majority to seize power and completely ruin the place.
