Stop Censoring the CDC
President Trump has given the directive to the CDC to ban the use of certain words like 'transgender' and 'science-based'. This shows a flagrant disrespect for scientific research and ostracizes whole groups of people.
Tell the executive and legislative branches to rescind this abhorrent directive.
Tell the executive and legislative branches to rescind this abhorrent directive.
Why is this important?
Banning words means banning any focus on groups of people or scientific inquiries. This ban obviously targets gay people and women and stinks of the Mengelian sort of Fascism practiced by Hitler. Rejecting LBGTs, pro-abortionists, and other diverse groups or scientific research related to them is motivated by the Christian idea of Creationism, and Trump has done this to appease this Christian Fascist arm of his party. It is a direct refutation of the First Amendment's call for separation of church and state.
If this censorship stands at a major federal institution, it signals a complete breakdown of democratic principles and paves the way for rampant white supremacy, fuels racial and gender violence, as well as destroying the dynamic of scientific inquiry relative to the health of our nation.
