Truth always is the first victim.

The CDC has instructed its scientists to retract or pause the publication of any research manuscript being considered by any medical or scientific journal, not merely its own internal periodicals

The scope is thankfully limited only to CDC scientists.

Not that this makes it good news by any stretch.

This is going to push research money squarely under the thumb of corporate control, which is of course the aim here. Privatize everything.

I do know scientists hate having their work paywalled or censored so I’d expect sci-hub to get a lot more popular real quick, but many will definitely self censor their official publications to keep their jobs til orange hitler shoots himself in a bunker somewhere.

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

Is there an equivalent to samizdat in scientific journals?

If so, our scientists should adopt some pseudonyms...

How long until this evil administration forces some citizens to sew a yellow star or pink triangle on their clothes?

Are you fucking kidding me?!?! What the fuck is wrong with that orange fucking clown? Jesus fuckjng christ.

The GOP read the Bolshevik, CCP and Nazi playbooks.

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)

I really hope some people are archiving stuff as fast as possible...
