Tara Copp @TaraCopp Follow 0 EXCLUSIVE: The @AP has obtained and tonight published a database of the file names and descriptions of more than 26,000 military images flagged for removal --because the pictures highlight contributions by women or minorities, or celebrate heritage -- or "DEI." A team of us went through and saved screenshots of images we could still access -- many are already gone. And it's just a fraction of what's being targeted for removal as @SecDef Hegseth targets diversity, equity and inclusion in the ranks.

This is what "merit" means to them

salt_baer 3h Follow Hegseth called General Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then Trump fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he "lacks the legally required prerequisites for the position" and requires a Presidential WAIVER from Trump just to take the job. This is what "merit" means to them. Covie @covie_93 It is ironic because trump firing a Black 4-star general as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff only to name a less qualified white man to the same job is the reason why DEI policies exist in the first place.

Clarification: DoD schools are 'examining books related to gender ideology or discriminatory equity ...

<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/books/2025/feb/17/a-great-shock-julianne-moores-childrens-book-under-review-by-trump-administration">The Guardian:</a> Last Monday, the Department of Defense circulated a memo stating that it is examining library books “potentially related to gender ideology or discriminatory equity ideology topics”. After access to all library books was suspended for a week for a review, a “small number of items” were identified and have been kept for “further review”, it said. Moore’s Freckleface Strawberry, a story about a girl who dislikes her freckles but learns to live with them, is among the books caught up in the blanket review, according to a list obtained by the Guardian. However, it is not known whether the title was selected for further review or for withdrawal.

Reminder

Joelle @joelle@social.joelle.us Reminder: When GOP talks about getting rid of “DEI" they don't mean getting rid of stupid contrived training that does no good. They mean getting rid of Black people, women, trans folk, and others that don't fit their ideal of a white ethnostate. They mean getting rid of *PEOPLE*. Not programs. 06 févr. 2025, 16:30 .

Dan Gillmor @dangillmor@mastodon.social Not an original thought by any means, but isn't the correct name for people who reject diversity, equity, and inclusion "racist"?
