When you removed populations from the category of human rights, are you removing them from the category of human?
The annual State Department human rights report “will remove all sections covering the rights of women, LGBTQ+ people, and the disabled as well as sections dedicated to discrimination against indigenous people and corruption in government.”

MAGA and MAHA types love to say “do your own research” & “I’ve done my research”, but they only like “research” if it’s a chiropractor on a podcast talking about why vaccines are satanic or whatever. Peer review & ethics boards are too woke & gay I guess? Smells a lot like Nazi book burning
