In our recently submitted grants we had to change “traumatic brain injury” to “concussive brain injury” and “male and female mice” to “male and non-male mice” because traumatic and female are now verboten words that can get our grants killed. It’s insanity.
How DARE they Assume Mice can be MORE then just Male AND Female! NONMALE means ANYTHING THATS NOT MALE you Stupid Libtards Commies!

real men don’t have trauma and women don’t exist. case dismissed.
The party that swears there are only Two Genders really seems to only believe in One.
A healthy, broadly educated population, which feels safe and secure, are incompatible with, and toxic to, conservative and authoritarian ideologies.
They need you to be sick, stupid, and scared.
I went through some of my papers partially supported by US grants and all of them use a bunch of forbidden words. This is basically pure maths, and you are not allowed to use “equality” as in the relationship between one expression and another is an equality? It is so increadibly stupid. Look:
A dangerous sign of wokeness

There is an overlap with this New York Times Article ( archive )
It seems a list is compiled by observing the words in repealed grants
Noam Ross, a computational researcher part of Grant Watch, told The Chronicle that Grant Watch doesn’t know exactly how grants are flagged for termination, but “suspect that these words are part of a search process for selecting them based on [The New York Times article] and other reporting.”
This is why politics and science shouldn’t mix. The truth is the truth, no matter how inconvenient it is to your bottom line.
