So is transgenic also going to be a banned word? Because if so, it’s going to be extremely hard to write any research paper that contains any basic molecular biology work.
@luckytran You should bet on it.
@luckytran With your name having "Tran" in it, I'm just glad you haven't already been redacted across the gov research pages already...
In the land of the free, words are getting banned.
And fascist trump claims to be a champion of free speech. (he means hate speech)
@luckytran If you've got anything about Chiropractic therapy or Ivermectin you might have better luck getting grants from the new NIH than with a study using the term TRANSgenic.
@luckytran They'll be going after the Transsiberian Orchestra next. Then on to Hotel Transylvania.
@luckytran
No more transitive verbs (they go, along with pronouns), no more transistor radios, no more Catholic communion because transubstantiation will be banned, and no more transcendental meditation, and ...
@luckytran and the biochemists unable to write about trans stereoisomers. This administration is clueless
@keydelk @luckytran I'm reminded of [ https://www.theverge.com/2020/8/6/21355674/human-genes-rename-microsoft-excel-misreading-dates ]:
And now wondering how many genome projects have to rename genes to avoid tripping the government requirements.
@luckytran The inability to write molecular biology papers would be a useful side effect to them.
@luckytran These "free speech" advocates really love banning words.
@luckytran They don't want you to write research papers. Truth is their enemy, and that includes any science that tells the truth.
@luckytran I'm waiting for transportation to become a problem word.
@raye @luckytran I'm waiting for
transubstantiation
