Trump’s Administration Is Taking Down Sites About Gender Identity All Over the Internet
www.404media.co
After Trump signed an unscientific, transphobic executive order deeming there to be "two sexes," several informational websites about gender identity went offline.

Summary

On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order mandating federal agencies use the term “sex” instead of “gender,” erasing recognition of gender identity.

This has led to the removal of essential information from government websites, including Social Security Administration guides on changing sex identification, LGBTQIA+ resources, and State and Labor Department pages on gender discrimination and passports.

Critics argue the policy spreads misinformation, adds stress for LGBTQ+ individuals, and echoes Trump’s previous suppression of climate change data during his first term.

    This headline is clickbait. The government webpages are being taken down or modified (a bad thing, to be clear), but that hardly qualifies as “all over the internet”. Making inaccurate claims like this only serves to legitimize opposition and alienate potential allies.
