Except they're the ones getting to decide what's reasonable and what isn't. As far as they're concerned, the rules are like points on Whose Line is it Anyway.

Someone else being an idiot is absolutely relevant when that idiot is the one deciding on what the rules are.

So yeah, they are deciding the rules, because if you don't like their rules, and don't want to follow them, pretty soon you'll be finding yourself disappeared or provided with a half dozen new ventilation holes in your head and chest. Maybe, maybe, in some distant happy future, they will be prosecuted for their actions, if there's anyone left to argue your case that is.

Plenty of people are standing up to the administration, from lawyers to judges to activists and universities and administration. Nobody is helped by this kind of baseless hyperbole.
