That's the number of passenger deaths, not total deaths. It's pretty close to the sum of passenger deaths in the wikipedia article on the Titanic [1], 818. According to that article, the total death count is unclear, so the discre

“Just as much”? Certainly not. Even if there was total censorship of studies critical of trans healthcare, that would be a tiny fraction of what the trump administration has already cut. What in the world makes you think that suppressing sc
