Much agree with this thread. My two principles are
1) Is this complicity or contagion? (3d.laboratorium.net/2025-10-29-c...)
2) Is the goal to maintain one's own moral standards, or to push someone else to do better?
Actual cases are hard, but these questions help me think through them clearly.

I know we're dealing with fear and bigotry here tho so; right words would likely have to be some kind of magic spell.

Like all of antitrust, it's absurdly complicated, but a first cut is that (a)State AGs have explicit standing to sue to enforce federal antitrust laws, 15 USC § 15c(a)(1), and
(b) state antitrust laws are not preempted by federal ones, California v. ARC America Corp., 490 U.S. 93 (1989).

Two questions sparked by the ongoing AI-abetted death of writing:
(1) How long will it be until some jurisdiction routinely enacts laws in the form of vertical videos?
(2) What interpretive methodology should apply to laws promulgated in this way?

Faculty have essentially two choices: (1) learn in painstaking detail how resources flow through your institution and how budgets work or (2) complain as you are cut to the bone and then broken. You’d be shocked at how many administrators and faculty do not understand their budget model.
