I don't think this is exhaustive and things have expanded since this was published, but this[1] somewhat covers this > CDC webpages currently note that the "CDC's website is being modified to comply with President Trump's Executive Orders." Specifically, the CDC has been purging its website of topics related to diversity, gender identity, and LGBTQ issues. In addition, CDC researchers have been ordered to retract pap…

Judge Bates issued a temporary restraining order to the CDC to restore certain websites.

HN doesn’t like reasonable questions in general. Jeff Geerling once got on the wrong side of HN moderation (falsely accused of spamming); you should see the hate for HN in the comments on his post about it. Many choice words, increasingly completely deserved. https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2022/i-almost-got-banned-h...

Nonsense, even Reddit says this place is full of toxicity beyond themselves. And that was five years ago.

> The CDC website was gutted in Jan 2025 I trust that this is true, but a cursory browsing through 2024 outbreaks, for example, shows the same information. To your parent poster's point, it would be nice to have a damning example like "look at this thing that was taken down." Maybe such examples belong somewhere else, but it might help dissuade skeptics.

Please see pages 6 to 12 in this declaration from the court case for examples of what was taken down. Note that Judge Bates issued a temporary restraining order to the CDC to restore these websites, so it shouldn't look different (except that the CDC put a ridiculous disclaimer on some of the pages) https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69608613/6/1/doctors-fo... [edit - fixed link]

Thanks. That document is four pages. Where is the "Memorandum of Law in Support of the Motion for a Restraining Order" referred to at the beginning?

edit:

- “The Youth Risk Behavioral Surveillance System”

- “Data and Statistics” for “Adolescent and School Health”

- “The Social Vulnerability Index”

- “The Environmental Justice Index”

- “PrEP for the Prevention of HIV Infection in the U.S.: 2021 Guideline Summary”

- “HIV Monitoring”

- “Getting Tested for HIV”

- “National ART Surveillance System (NASS)”

- “CDC Contraceptive Guidance for Health Care Providers”

- FDA webpages on “Study of Sex Differences in the Clinical Evaluation of Medical Products”

- “Diversity Action Plans to Improve Enrollment of Participants from Underrepresented Populations in Clinical Studies”

I think if you were rich, you'd do us a bigger favor by just buying the USGov.

Musk already did that. Doesn't seem to be working out that well for the "us".

Right, so at this point the bar for improvement is low.

Hmm, the invitation link to discord sends me to a blackhole. Are invitation restricted?

I hate that many projects use Discord where anything else (IRC, Matrix, whatever) would work but in this case especially. Tencent owns an undisclosed share in Discord and just generally seems like a bad choice of communication platform if you want to look better than doge

Discord works by clicking a button - you get to signup, you fill in your email, bam you're on the Discord channel in your browser. Zero friction, nothing new to learn for the user.

IRC on the other hand....
