Not necessarily.

But given your constant drumbeat of how one has to obey the authorities and not challenge them, it's a good fit.

Obey the laws of the land.
Wanna change them, do so legally.

"for it to be closed down for what is written in the link title... reportedly."

Well, that's clear as mud. Are discussing a British item or an Aussie item or something else? And of course it was founded on slave money. Whomever "they" is will have to figure out a way to respond to their history that satisfies, pretty much like everybody else does and should.

But there is no good reason for them to know what comes next, yet. They'd best figure it out soon, though!

That's what I said. Fascist.

When "legally" is controlled by the folks who don't want that change, to say "do it legally" is to say "do not do it at all."

If laws are corrupt, the only ethical thing to do is to break them, Bambi, but I don't expect you to get that, let alone accept it. We have a defense used but rarely in this realm called the Necessity Defense in which one argues that one must break the law because there is a greater evil being committed.

By that standard, almost any law can be broken, under the law.

It has scheduled three presidential debates: Sept. 29 at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, Oct. 15 at the University of Michigan, and Oct. 22 at Belmont University in Nashville. A vice presidential debate will be held Oct. 7 at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.

Trump puts Rudy in charge of trying to get a 4th debate.

Biden's people might just want to say that debates are dangerous due to Trump's inept mishandling of the virus.  And that they aren't necessary because it's clear that Trump is the worst president ever and needs to be removed.  last year, Trump threatened to skip all debates.  Now that he's losing he wants more.  We feel no need to debate Donald Trump, etc.

Bambi doesn't seem to understand that protesting is a legal (and effective) way to get laws changed.
