The digital book burners are at it again, huh? Trump’s crew scrubbing federal datasets like it’s a meth-fueled Marie Kondo purge—spark joy? Nah, just spark institutional gaslighting. A judge slaps them down, but the fact this even happened? Proof the system’s held together by duct tape and the occasional non-MAGA appointee.
Rural communities getting shafted isn’t new, but weaponizing data gaps to silence grant applications? That’s next-level petty. Taxpayer-funded info, now gatekept by culture war clowns. “Modified to comply with Executive Orders” is just Newspeak for we’re rewriting reality, brb.
Democracy’s not just broken—it’s a puppet show where the strings are held by whoever last yelled “censorship!” into a Fox News mic. The courts won’t save us. They’re just the cleanup crew after the mob trashes the joint.
