If this real this it is the stupidest thing I have seen yet

The Trump administration has banned seven words from the Centers for Disease Control’s upcoming budget documents, the Washington Post reports. The words are “vulnerable,” “entitlement,” “diversity,” “transgender,” “fetus,” “evidence-based” and "science-based.

If this is true I don’t see how anyone with common sense or an IQ above the idiot level can defend this.

I mean I know the least intelligent people who are anti abortionist think fetus is a made up term to dehumanize a developing human .

Why not just link to the Washington post article instead of some weird source?

2 things.

If that is your only concern here then I feel sorry for you.

That was the news story I read it at.

Is this like addressing the poster versus the post?

This is a couple of years old as far as “news” go and I think it was just a bunch of hot air. No indication that the CDC has actually been restricted in any way, nor would any such ban survive court review.

Looks like mashable is just vomiting up old garbage.

Ok thanks I was hoping this was satire or something.

Just drives me nuts when people post a write up of another article that’s linked to in the write up.

Especially when the linked to article is longer.

Yeah, I seem to recall this story from a while back. It’s been lost in sea of all the other crazy stuff. It’s so fatiguing. All of it.

Desperation is setting in. Rehashing old news.

Aaaah found the date on the original story

December 15, 2017

Yup.

Old news being dragged up from the grave by the mashable making you think it just happened.

Wouldn’t this count as fake news? hmmmmmmm

If it’s fake, yes. If it isn’t fake but old…do you have to ask?

@WuWei was rehashing old news pertaining to Stormy Daniels in another thread. I hope you don’t think he is desperate?

Trip down memory lane. They weren’t banned. A suppose suggestions.

I can’t believe they brought this up. It tell me just how desperate they have become.

See my reply.

Rehashed, old, and fake news. TRIFECTA!

CNN catching fake news. If I didn’t read it I would think it was fa… …

Why would Mashable repost this lol.

But it’s amazing that watching Trump supporters jump on this thread the way they are. You hardly see them do this when one of their own posts a boo-boo.

I can only assume, under the Trump regime, you mean the “stupidest thing (you) have seen” today?
