I really hope you didn't stop teaching them about lies and to challeng authority. That's extremely valuable, especially to people from countries with dictators.

- sandworm101 4y agoActually, I did stop. This was a lecture series about law taught within a forensics program, which is not the place for political grandstanding. When teaching law you always have to be very careful else every lecture devolve into debates re big/small government and freedoms of the people. Iirc the case I was discussing dealt with the search and seizure of laptops at airports. We needed to cover jurisdiction and encryption issues, not the rights of a democratic people to be free from tyranny.
- fartcannon 4y agoYou'd probably get fired if you pushed the point anyways.
- bombcar 4y agoSounds like the right decision - as anyone knows you're only supposed to teach "challenging authority" when the authority is one of the "accepted to challenge".
