    Default So Trump just forbade the CDC from using the word "transgender"

    Your thoughts...................................
    The forbidden words are: "vulnerable," "entitlement," "diversity," "transgender," "fetus," "evidence-based" and "science-based."

    It really is something out of Orwell. The Center for Disease Control can't use "science-based" or "evidence-based" and can't talk about transgender men and women. Can't use the word vulnerable either, which can sometimes be used to discuss people who are elderly or have disabilities. It's as though by eliminating words he can challenge the idea that some people are actually vulnerable.

    The recommended phrase for science based is "bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes." In other words if the state of the science offends some community standard or wish it should take a back seat. Trump has not only threatened many important government agencies by appointing some of the most underqualified mediocrities you'll ever see, he also appoints ideologues who don't believe in the missions of those agencies. What could matter for the cdc other than science and evidence?

    Thanks for the thread.

    What do you expect, the Congress has forbidden them or anyone else to do any study on gun violence, any kind of study. No one can use the term climate change either. Although I meet a few park rangers that used the term, also mentioned the president no matter how orange, cannot tell them what to say.

    Damn, and I always thought the seven words were.
    Shit
    Piss
    Fuck
    Cunt
    Cocksucker
    Motherfucker
    and
    Tits

    But I guess it's a new world now.
