It's always a healthy sign when a new administration just starts setting parts of the government on fire. - ThreadSky

It's always a healthy sign when a new administration just starts setting parts of the government on fire.

From a journalist friend: Just spreading the word. The CDC is purging data, so people should archive their favorite CDC datasets today, namely ones around race/ethnic diversity, LGBTQ, and reproductive health. Also health data involving climate. The youth risk behavior survey has already gone down.

Do you mean to tell me that Nazis burning whatever they don't like is a BAD thing???

I don’t know if we can ever undo the damage done to our country in just these two weeks already!

I've worked with data in IT for 30 years, and the wanton destruction of stored data is anathema to educated people. These are the same dumb motherfuckers that would have heated their huts by burning the pilfered scrolls from the Library of Alexandria.

Love how everyone kept saying “oh what’s the worst they could do. They couldn’t do anything for years before” and ten days later the country is literally about to be in freefall toward full on authoritarianism

Wanton destruction of public property is a crime against everyone.

And Musk wants access to the treasury payment systems - so we’re now just letting the billionaires directly raid the US treasury?

creditsndebits.bsky.social•23 days ago

So like when does the civil war start, y'all?

Best keep that in a private chat methinks

creditsndebits.bsky.social•22 days ago

Methinks it's fair to prognosticate publicly. #RPserver

Certainly. I'm just wary of anything that might be taken as advocacy by unfriendly eyes

Hopefully someone somewhere is saving these data sets. Not sure I know how to do that myself.

jennofark.bsky.social•22 days ago

This is data that belongs to the American people.

We paid for it. This is criminal activity.

Dear lord at least introduce articles of impeachment. At least a dozen impeachable offenses in as many days

enniskillen1166.bsky.social•23 days ago

Um, purging government records is a crime. Surely they are being careful to document where these data are being stored. Oh, wait...

Is covering up the crime

I would never have been able to write my dissertation without those data sets.

It’s all already gone. Via search if you click the link - doesn’t exist.

Their destruction is evil. It will set us back generations!

Government records act anyone?

Nothing says “there is no evidence for X,Y,Z” like destroying all the evidence.

Didn't Churchill say history is written by 'the victors'?

America is learning elections have consequences.

It's like we're going back to the dark ages and the Democrat party is not doing enough. Let's just hope that enough of these idiots who voted for Trump get pissed off at being lied to and vote their reps out.

skyblueheel.bsky.social•23 days ago

I get the urge to motivate Dems to do more. In truth we are here because Republicans allowed a adjudicated fraud, cheat, defamer, felon and insurrectionist to be their nominee. They abandoned their clear headedness in the 2 weeks following January 6 and failed to impeach. Then Roberts failed to ...

skyblueheel.bsky.social•23 days ago

...follow the constitution and created POTUS immunities out of whole cloth. That R's control all branches of government should be the thing we rail against. Just recognize that the voters did it, not the Dems.

ny2va.bsky.social•23 days ago

We need some Republicans to join them. I know Trump has purged the party so we’re basically left with his lackeys, but it’s still astonishing to me that the Senate (which is generally more averse to rapid change and has always valued “order” at some level) is also just going along.

The archive is still showing content as recent as last week.

Are trumps’ techies in on this? Certainly the uneducated, gestapo cabinet folks require computer expertise.

Hide the Evidence Time?

pommefemme.bsky.social•23 days ago

I hope and expect CDC staff have taken individual initiatives for archiving in anticipation of 47.
