25. Antiscience goons at play

Let's parse this: “preference some groups at the expense of others” and would no longer support “[r]esearch
projects with more narrow impact limited to subgroups of people based on protected class or
characteristics.” OK, so subgroup based on protected class, basically DEI shit. So in "STUPID AMERICA", which this administration obviously wants, the Merits don't matter? Yep. That is the rule. Oh, and if it's a race
"out of bounds" to the incoherent color-mindedness of this admin, no funding for you! I would hate to be the professor telling his just-married Grad student (from the newly tariffed country X) with his first child (US BORN), "I'm sorry we didn't get the funding that was supposed to be funded". This shit is just wrong, man.
