What do you think of these words being banned by Trump?

Asked by LostInParadise (31905points) December 16th, 2017

The Center for Disease Control, the CDC has just been told that there are certain words they cannot use. No, none of them are four letter words. Link Science-based and evidence-based are two phrases that have been banned. Is there any good for this. Trump’s idea of draining the swamp seems to be to eliminate educated people, scientists in particular. Maybe this is a kind of muzzle that is being used to keep science from being used as a reason for believing something is true – shades of 1984.
