In the West, university lecturers avoid criticizing the ruling regime as a matter of course and a consciously chosen choice, as long as the ruling regime is part of the Leftist establishment. In Afghanistan, however, academics are not quite so eager to conform to the establishment narrative, and have to be warned in a letter that they must do so, or face the consequences of dissent.
“Afghan Authorities Warn Univesity Lecturers to Refrain Criticizing the Ruling Regime,” by Nizamuddin Rezahi, Khaama Press, May 31, 2023:
Afghanistan’s Ministry of Higher Education in a letter has warned university lecturers to avoid criticizing the Taliban regime in their research work, sources reported….
The letter contains seven decrees about research and translation, sent by Hamidullah Muzamal, the head of the research and translation department of the Ministry of Higher Education of the Taliban on May 27.
Muzamal has clearly said that university lecturers should defend the ruling regime and refrain from criticizing or speaking against Taliban officials to avoid possible problems….

Considering the totality of circumstances, that is very sage advice.

The cowardly wussies of the West have already submitted to the cult of death, they don’t need to be reminded.

Exaggeration, I remember a video where Tommy Robinsons crew (Tommy wasn’t there) pushed back Mohammed Hijabs crew. By your logic the ancestors of all these brainwashed Muslims are also cowardly wussies due to submission to Islam due to being conquered by Arabs or Islamized Persian Invaders.

Western governments have also tried to silence critics the governments’ policies and corruptions. Welcome to the new world.

I would have thought that Afghan lecturers would already be smart enough to not criticize the Taliban at all

FYI says
I am not one to spoil an islamic party but should we not tell the Taliban about muhammed’s CROSS DRESSING :wearing Aisha’s dress{Sahih Bukhari 2442}or that the well known scientific errors in the koran can only come from a HUMAN mind stiil in the 7th-8th century and thus NOT from some omniscient entity?
I won’t mention that muhammed is described as being a fat dwarf as i don’t want to ridicule anyone how happens to be a fat dwarf:but BURAQ his flying donkey with a woman’s face,the one he used to fly to Jerusalem on..i’m sorry you have to laugh at that.
Ask the scholars of islam this..
How did muhammed get to Jerusalem?
On Buraq.
