Don't they know just because you've banned a word, doesn't mean that the item or thing automatically poofs out of existence?
This is that easy. There's a few words I'd love to ban. How about Elmo? And Turd
Unfortunately, this kind of control of language does work in the long term.
It makes it harder to pursue science when you cannot use the terns others in ypur field use.
It's just the first step. You don't acknowledge they exist on paper or in speech. That makes it much easier to turn against them physically. It's still up in the air whether or not they take the final steps of making their existence illegal. I think they will.
Wiping trans people from existence is easier for them to do when nobody is allowed to talk about them.
Source?
On review I agree, we need better sources before we can be confident of this story.
Edit: It seems to be real.
Thank you. I'm surprised, this is the science community and I'm downvoted for asking for a source. I thought this community valued proof.
I hope no one resubmits anything.
They would be rejected
Publish it somewhere else. Don't let the fascists control data and reality.
If only publishing wasn't such a painful process. Maybe other journals can fastrack retracted cdc papers
Theoretically, this could be the impetus that Sparks Open journals, but unfortunately that doesn't seem very likely.

In Oldspeak, this might be rendered:
CDC orders mass retraction and revision of submitted research across all science and medicine journals. Banned terms must be scrubbed. (Including gender, transgender, pregnant person, LGBT, and more)
Are you fucking kidding me?!?! What the fuck is wrong with that orange fucking clown? Jesus fuckjng christ.
Is there an equivalent to samizdat in scientific journals?
If so, our scientists should adopt some pseudonyms...
Why not move all journals out of the US or move all research out of US journals. Who cares if for instance JAMA publishes nothing this year? Nearly 100% of the value was always in the scientists who write and review the work
it’s not US journals which are affected, it’s the scientists working for the CDC
How long until this evil administration forces some citizens to sew a yellow star or pink triangle on their clothes?
Yellow star is so last world war.
It’ll definitely be pink triangles and moon and star this go around
The GOP read the Bolshevik, CCP and Nazi playbooks.
And just like that sci-hub will be even more useful
There is also annas-archive.
