this is how the holocaust started by the way. in case anyone even gives a shit anymore. this is how it started. trans people were first.
The CDC has instructed its scientists to retract or pause the publication of any research manuscript being considered by any medical or scientific journal. The move aims to ensure that no “forbidden terms” appear in the work. Banned terms must be scrubbed.

A decade ago at least, when I still wrote for +972 Magazine, we said that one day police would use West Bank occupation tactics on Jewish Israelis. Happening now.
