Meanwhile, how many people and animals are being hurt with his potato chip, neurolink? Nothing in life is a slam dunk.

Is there a theory on why they are flagging the word "hesitancy?"

Vaccine hesitancy = anti-antivaxxers, and RFK Jr is an antivaxxer.

The problem here is that Venn diagrams of educated people doing extremely useful work, losing jobs because of idiotic cuts, and people in Magaland show next to no overlap

So, hesitancy is a verboten word in any grant proposal, because, I assume, one can’t be studying vaccine hesitancy?🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Oooooooh, I was wondering why, but I bet this is the answer.

Damn it, this is exactly why we don't let computers make grant decisions for us.

This is the Stupid leading the Dumb and Dumber.
Then again, maybe cruelty is the plan...

The punishment of inquiry represents our most dangerous capitulation to fear where the mere mention of 'hesitancy' becomes grounds for defunding research. Exploration of medical concerns among specialists becomes forbidden we've moved beyond scientific protocol into ideological enforcement.

It's only important to those who care about public health, and those who will need it. That eliminates the right-wing zealots now running things.

Thankful for their important work and horrified by [sweeping gesture].

And FFS people, get the shingles vax before lord only knows what may become of it. And/or make sure others in your life do.

That actually questions a vaccine. RFK Jr, WTH?

Musk is trying to make the government more efficient by keyword parsing and just hitting delete? He's the world's biggest idiot.
