In a remarkable move to challenge the first amendment rights of the Center for Disease Control, its employees have been told to not use the following words: fetus, diversity, evidence-based, science-based, transgender, entitlement, and vulnerable. So some employees are fighting back by deliberately misspelling these words.
A twitterer suggested using “evidence-baste” and “science-baste."
Fetus can be spelled the British way: “foetus."
So it would seem that any research that is science-baste into the di-adversity of the biosphere will not be applied to foetuses. And trensgender research will have to come to a complete halt because the Trump administration would not consider it evidence-baste in the first place. Using correct scientific terminology is no longer a ventitlement for the CDC, but venting is protected.
I just hope the ACLU is already planning on using some of their record-high fundraising dollars to challenge this nonsense. Otherwise, we will all soon be vilenerable to such abuses!
