  • Oncologists trying to apply for a grant for uterine cancer research without using the words "female" or "women".

    This list of banned words was introduced months ago, has the US only just discovered it exists?

    • Like most things, it hasn't been done through the correct channels. I think Trump signed a few orders (with only some of the words from the leaked list), and then his staff occasionally orders an office to drop everything and ensure they're newspeak compliant

      I do know removing anything except male/female from the gender drop down boxes was a big push, the white house website is getting a lot scrubbed, but it's all very inconsistently applied and disorganized

  • Write it out. The idiots won't know it's the same thing.
