I am not an Elon Musk fan, but rhetoric about deporting him is really disturbing to me. He's a US citizen. Folks leaning towards authoritarianism want to strip people of their citizenships. We shouldn't want the same, even for the very worst of us. Either we have principles or we don't.

If we're just talking about doing the exact same things but for people *we* don't like, what are we even standing for?
