So we can't talk about injustice at all? Do MAGA really want to go there?

Talk about snowflakes!

The guidance from federal offices is that they are also looking at "disguising" activities. So if your grant is designed to address gender based violence, and you use the term gender based violence, you're you're out of compliance with the executive orders creating this BS, and they can then defund you. And if you try to use other terms to describe it, they are saying they will find you of compliance with the executive orders for trying to disguise it. But if you don't do the actual work to address gender based violence, you're out of compliance with the actual grant you signed on for and are contractually obligated to complete. WTAF...

Your grand would be "Violence against humans that are not men".

Is there a thesaurus stock I can invest in for the time being?

“Females” is banned but “males” is not.

God. How effing stupid!

Which is not on the list. Say it all you want in federally funded programming I guess?

Well, some words need to be banned. Like the “R” word.

Authoritarians are terrified of words. They have to preserve their bubble of delusions.

LOL.

They banned "female," "women," and "Gulf of Mexico."

How is this OK? This is throwing the baby out with the bath water. What is the value in shutting down speech? We can't say "victim" anymore. Women?? That's wrong? "Mental health" is banned from our work if we're federally funded? (Shows they never gave a crap about mental health, even though they claimed to). What in the blazing hell is going on, and Congress, who appropriated these funds to work on, say, women with disabilities who have been victims of crime needing accessible services, is sitting there with their thumbs up their a$$es.

Here's the list of banned words you can't use in federally funded programming anymore:
