Until recently, a page on the Defense Department’s website celebrated Pfc. Ira Hayes, a Pima Indian who was one of the six Marines photographed hoisting a U.S. flag on Iwo Jima in 1945, as an emblem of the “contributions and sacrifices Native Americans have made to the United States, not just in the military, but in all walks of life.”

But the page, along with many others about Native American and other minority service members, has now been erased amid the Trump administration’s wide-ranging crackdown on what it says are “diversity, equity and inclusion” efforts in the federal government, a review by The Washington Post found.

Multiple articles about the Navajo code talkers, who were critical to America’s victory at Iwo Jima and the wider Pacific theater of the Second World War, were also removed, along with a profile of a Tonawanda Seneca officer who drafted the terms of the Confederacy’s surrender at Appomattox toward the end of the Civil War.

The purge, which also targeted multiple webpages about women and LGBTQ+ service members, highlights how aggressively military leaders are pursuing President Donald Trump’s anti-DEI mandate. Their actions mean that some of the most authoritative sources of public information about the achievements of minority service members decades before government DEI programs existed have disappeared. Some of the articles, including the piece about Hayes, remain online on websites or social media accounts for the individual branches of the military.

The most likely answer is deranged TDS liberals in those departments doing this.

 

Just like how they paint their own swastikas on their houses, see nooses in every garage, and get attacked by white people in MAGA hats when they're just trying to buy a sandwich after hours in Chicago.

Sure, Hillary probably went after Native American veterans 

 

All these years later and red necks still can't get it that people and people 

 

Racism is ugly, at least you admit what they are doing is wrong

Racism is just code for anti white 

 

It just means " hey white guy, don't ever defend yourself politically around your identity. " 

 

Dei is code for white erasure within the institutions 

 

This Marxist nonsense is to destroy the West and it's destruction as a people

 

Pretty sure ppl have figured this out now. Nobody is falling for the silliness anymore dude. 

 

 

 

This is your Ted talk

Did the DOD leave the articles about the contributions of the other 5 soldiers celebrating the ethnic heritage of those men and highlighting the contributions of their "people"?

Removing a web page ?

How does removing this webpage make America great again, specifically?

Just a reminder - those defending this are the same ones who were outraged over the removal of Confederate names and statues. Ironic, right? Not really

We can have a conversation about the Confederacy if you want but you probably been brainwashed by the public school system so I'm not sure how useful it will be. The civil war had very little to do with slavery and everything to do with northern debt. The Atlantic slave trade was a predominantly West African practice that was already being eradicated by Christendom over a matter of centuries. Slavery is still practiced today in Africa, so make sure you virtue signal about their flags too. 

 

 

But just a test in how consistent you are in your logic and how good faith you are , I want you to condemn the Haitian flag. 

 

Here's why

 

 

 

 

 

We can also have an honest conversation about race but again I'm not sure how useful it's going to be because you've been completely brainwashed into anti-whitism by the public school system

Now they care about identity. How many "I hate trans people" threads are there?

 

 

You can't dress up as a lion like in The wizard of Oz and then pretend you're a lion dude... Stop being silly 

 

 

Btw will you virtue signal about their heritage here and past iconography.  Pretty sure it was a good thing those Spanish people conquered that.... They brought Western civilization and ya know the enlightenment, human rights, dignity before a court with the presumption of innocence.... All that boring stuff 

 

But hey you want to take a flag and sum it up into just one thing. Because you actually don't care about history, or respect a particular people and their uniqueness because it's really about using the past to make judgement now so you can get power. So much for diversity lol

 

The truth is even with the dark history of the Aztecs and Many cultures, it's completely ridiculous to sit on the chair of modernity to castigate and entire people, their history and use it to virtue signal as if you're accomplished a moral crusade. 

 

This is why Most normal people aren't offended by tribal iconography or chants. Because we're not trying to play a game of cultural narcissism. You are tho

So rioting mobs tearing down and defacing public monuments is equivalent to public officials taking down a web page?

The left will never ever ever have an honest conversation about race dude... it goes against their entire worldview and the pillars of modern liberalism. In some respects I understand it because the intention is from a good place , although it's also used as a subversive tactic too

 

The truth is we stopped the space program and spent literally trillions of dollars over to try to uplift these people and in many respects it got worse ...

 

We even gave them a constitution in Liberia , all kinds of money, resources, tools and Western support and they ended up cannibalizing each other. Same thing in Haiti, same thing in South Africa,  same thing in the former Rhodesia,  same thing in many American cities. 70% of black women with useless college degrees for example are hired by the govt. This is not sustainable from a cultural standpoint or economic one. And it's just going to lead to more George Floyd riots, more re resentment, more cops afraid to arrest criminals etc

 

The left will look at this dilemma generally speaking and say it's because of racism and start screaming at white people to do even more. 

 

It's never going to stop. 

 

Scott Adams gave the best advice and put it in very simple terms to just stay away from these people,  people that think like him and honestly racial arsonists who want to take their own failures and turn it into resentment towards other people as a whole. 

 

I honestly don't care about the lefts shaming tactics anymore because I understand what their ultimate goal is.

But then along came the racist MAGA movement (a lot like a big bowel movement) 

 

The removal of the article about Hayes is particularly notable because of the legendary status of the Iwo Jima flag-raising photograph, which the Pentagon has labeled an “iconic image.” The photograph, which was taken on Feb. 23, 1945, by Joe Rosenthal of the Associated Press, won a Pulitzer Prize and was the model for a statue that serves as the centerpiece of the Marine Corps War Memorial in Arlington, Virginia.

The Pentagon quickly capitalized on the image’s popularity, sending Hayes and other Marines who appeared in it on a national tour to sell war bonds. Hayes, who was depicted in three major movies and was the subject of a song recorded by Johnny Cash, died at age 32 in 1955 after struggling with alcoholism.

During a 1993 speech at the Marine Corps War Memorial, Marine Corps Commandant Gen. Carl E. Mundy Jr. paid tribute to Hayes and noted his Native American heritage, according to a report from the time. Mundy said that were Hayes still alive, Mundy would have told him that the Marine Corps was made up of people from “the broad, strong ethnic fabric that is our nation,” and pledged that in the future “that fabric will broaden and strengthen in every category to make our corps even stronger.”

Scott Adams is a moderate liberal btw and I 100% agree with him.

 

 

The Black on white crime is completely off the rails, something like over 100,000 white people have been murdered by black people since the beginning of the mid 1960s....

 

South African government is calling for the genocide of white people too....

 

So yeah.

Racism is just a code for anti-whitism 

 

Again it just means" hey white man don't ever center your politics around your identity while everyone around you does center their politics around your identity and we want you to shut up about it"

 

Words like racism, white supremacy, homophobia, Islamophobic, are shaming tactics to disarm the consciousness from defending Western civilization. 

 

It's just a Marxist tactic 

 

Ignore these people in real life. They are usually miserable
