"threatening to de-fund universities" - you mean the multi-billion endowment private universities that charge 60 grand a year?

"Black-bagging students who write articles and take part in (and maybe even, shock-horror, organise) protests (in both these case: exercise their "right" to free speech)." - any citizens you can point to?

RE DOGE, can you point to any inaccuracies on doge.gov? literally everything is listed out, so should be easy to point out.

RE donors/puppet masters from getting richer at the expense of everyone else. - who are these donors and puppet masters? Elon's net worth has probably gone down. And for a guy who has created the most wealth in history arguably, doesn't need to get into government to secure a few lucrative contracts for himself. More likely that you are deranged sir.
