> try going to https://www.nih.gov/ and putting gender in the search box

Compared to their other actions of censorship, this is such a small thing, but for some reason this in particular makes me distressed. Possibly because it shows how paranoid they are about letting out any information that goes against their narrative; that they're willing to do stupid, reckless things to control the narrative; that they enforce obedience to their ideology at all levels. It just seems like the entrance to a dark future.

It feels like they're trying to rewrite history... Which is a term I searched the Internet for, and funnily enough the first result was a blog post from the current White House administration. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/rest... (My other worry is that everything they accuse of others is a projection of their own intentions onto others. This seems less absurd every passing day. Otherwise this would be laughable.) So I guess the White House is explicit in they they're rewriting history to the True history. Thank you so much. Finally, we can be united under ONE Nation, ONE Truth, and ONE God. Sorry, I got a bit over-excited there.

For time travelers: searching for "gender" just directs you back to nih.gov, instead of directing you to the search results page.

Trump's social media is literally named "Truth" Social. Incredibly Orwellian. I don't understand how people thought him being president a second time was a good idea.

You don't know what the real source of COVID is, nor does anyone else, and this is what NIH has said the entire time.

> when they censored and thrown all their weight into suppression of [the lab leak theory]

Can you state plainly what you mean by this? What precisely did the NIH do that constitutes "censored and thrown all their weight into suppression" in your mind?

If anybody is reading this comment, I would recommend that you look at Michael Worobey's series of papers on COVID's origins; they are much more well thought out than this horseshit.
