This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:
“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

Texas A&M's changes to academic policy will limit what students can learn in classes and stop faculty from teaching the facts. This is antithetical to what higher education is meant to be. #HigherEdBenefitsEveryone spectrumlocalnews.com/tx/south-tex...
Lawmaker calls on university leaders to follow Texas A&M's lead on policy change
In addition to limiting academic freedom, there are concerns limiting conversations around race and gender could result in civil rights violations.

Sadly I regret to say that it's likely that the economy is going to worsen as the effects of the fascists' policies ACTUALLY take root.
76% of people polled essentially saying that the economy sucks is "Katie, bar the door" territory.

They might even imply that Walker herself is to blame: they’ll say she had existing health problems. I’ve even seen anti-abortion groups victim-blame Black women for maternal deaths by saying they’re more likely to be “obese."

Texas' abortion ban has killed yet another woman. Here's exactly what the anti-abortion response will be:
They’ll claim doctors were legally allowed to “intervene” or “treat” Tierra Walker with "care." They won't say she could have had an abortion because they don’t believe in life-saving abortions
