Seen on some social media feeds. Maybe made by students at UT? Anyway, this is all in response to the president of the University of Texas who has made a new task force for curriculum on campus.

It's not clear how the news media can continue to call what Israel is doing a "war." Don't they have enough letters left to spell "genocide?"

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.
