It's been on year since the Bethesda Declaration.

Today marks one year since the Bethesda Declaration, a letter of dissent issued by hundreds of employees at the NIH to protest severe budget cuts of medical research and the implementation of pseudoscience policies and unqualified leadership. Unfortunately, little has changed since then; 27 UNIHTED has an excellent piece on this: https://zurl.co/n8Dt6

The Authors of the Book “The War on Science” Won Their War. Are They Happy Now?

"Fortunately, nearly a year after the publication of The War on Science we have some real-world data, which scientists should value above all else. It sure seems to me that the authors of The War on Science won their war and should take a well-earned victory lap. They’ll never again have to write a dreaded DEI statement or feel threatened by an 18-year-old with pronouns in their bio. Thanks to their efforts, trans people are literally on the run and research into topics our government deems “DEI” is verboten. This is exactly what they wanted, and if their theory of the case is right, we should be entering a golden era of open scientific research and discovery."
