As COVID recrudesces, major meta-study questioning lockdowns is censored

With COVID back, censorship is back, and now it's taken a particularly dangerous form, not just on social media, but on leading academic exchanges.

The huge Social Sciences Research Network (SSRN), run by Netherlands-based publishing house Elsevier, is not a site most people know about, but it is a behemoth in academia, extremely important to professors for getting their work out there and advancing within the academic community.

That's where censorship on COVID is happening, which could have far-reaching consequences for public policy and the free exchange of ideas.

SSRN's plain, bare-bones front page on its site describes itself this way:

Tomorrow´s Research Today

SSRN provides 1,265,565 research papers from 1,365,420 researchers in 70 disciplines.

Censorship. It's baaack.

recrudesce
rē″kroo͞-dĕs′
intransitive verb
To break out anew or come into renewed activity, as after a period of quiescence.

[Responsibility2nd]

I came here to post that also. Seems I learned a new word today.

[Signalman]

I’ll bet that if I live another 50 years, I’ll never read, or hear, that word again.

[central_va]

Recrudesces, or a word only found on a GRE exam.

[beaversmom]

I couldn’t figure out if it was a real word or a typo.

Thank you

[Billthedrill]

The latest disease evanescence
Can only be called recrudescence
Wear a mask, get a shot
Hide out under your cot
Thank the gummint for all the unpleasance.

OK, I'm doing my best here, work with me...

THIS IS A LEFTIST TWISTING THE LANGUAGE where nobody can understand or connect to it.

Thanks, I was just about to look that up.

[COBOL2Java]

The Deep State wants to treat us like their children. And the leftists want it.

Remember the pony-tail haired guy from the '92 campaign? He was dealt with on Rush's TV show...

Speaking of words, there was a word to describe Hillary, “Her comingence” or “contumescence” something like that. Can anyone post the actual word I’m looking for?

[Elsie]

A good start by Billthedrill,
It shows he's not over the hill.
Now is your life a mess?
Filled with worry and stress?
Get yourself a brand new Chill Pill!

The c word I have for her is much shorter than that...

[Mark17]

Not bad.

[Mark17]

It looks like lockdowns are here to stay
I think it’s designed to keep us at bay
It really is bad
And oh so sad
They will see if they can make us disobey

[mmichaels1970]

I just KNEW I was going to see “recrudesces” used in a sentence today. Knew it.
