Megaphone :verified:<a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/ScienceUnderSiege?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScienceUnderSiege</a>: The Orlando Research Conference Fallout<br>
<br>
Something alarming is happening in the <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/ScientificCommunity?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScientificCommunity</a>, and it’s not getting the attention it deserves. A recent <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/NIH?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NIH</a>-backed <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/neuroscience?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neuroscience</a> conference in <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Orlando?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Orlando</a> turned into a disaster. Research sessions were canceled after being mistaken for “<a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/DEI?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DEI</a>” initiatives, and funding was pulled.<br>
<br>
One session on the diversity of afferent firing in the cochlea (how nerve cells transmit sound) was targeted because people saw the word “<a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/diversity?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#diversity</a>” and assumed it was political. <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/MAGA?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MAGA</a> hat-wearing attendees reportedly vandalized posters.<br>
<br>
The nescient reaction of the MAGA hat-wearing attendees to the word “diversity”—mistaking a scientific discussion on neural firing patterns in the cochlea for a political agenda—exemplifies a dangerous blend of <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/ignorance?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ignorance</a> and ideological rigidity. Their inability to differentiate between linguistic context and <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/partisan?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#partisan</a> buzzwords not only disrupted legitimate research but also underscored the broader issue of anti-intellectualism undermining scientific progress.<br>
<br>
Worse, researchers discovered their already earned funding was revoked, postdoc opportunities disappeared, and the conference felt like a <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/funeral?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#funeral</a> for the field as careers crumbled in real time.<br>
<br>
Meanwhile, the NIH was banned from attending due to a new administration-imposed blackout on communications and travel, delaying critical <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/research?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#research</a> on <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Cancer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Cancer</a>, <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/HeartDisease?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeartDisease</a>, and <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Diabetes?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Diabetes</a>.<br>
<br>
<a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/Science?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Science</a> depends on open inquiry—but now, <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/political?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#political</a> interference is gutting <a href="https://lgbt.earth/discover/tags/research?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#research</a>. This isn’t just about one conference. It’s a direct attack on scientific progress. If we don’t stand up now, what’s next?<br>
<br>
🔬 Science must remain free from political control.<br>

Infections such as typhoid and cholera, a major cause of <a href="https://c.im/tags/illness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>illness</span></a> and <a href="https://c.im/tags/death" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>death</span></a> early in the 20th century, have been reduced dramatically. In addition, the discovery of antimicrobial therapy has been critical to successful public health efforts to control infections such as tuberculosis and sexually transmitted diseases.</p><p>Safer and Healthier <a href="https://c.im/tags/Foods" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Foods</span></a> have resulted from decreases in microbial contamination and increases in nutritional content.

Severe injuries and deaths related to mining, manufacturing, construction, and transportation have also decreased. Since 1980, safer workplaces have resulted in a reduction of approximately 40% in the rate of fatal occupational injuries.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/Fluoridation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fluoridation</span></a> of Drinking Water began in 1945 and in 1999 reaches an estimated 144 million persons in the United States.
