Content takedowns come as administration has made combating antisemitism a major focus

Summary

The Pentagon has removed web pages about Holocaust remembrance and other historical topics to comply with Trump’s order to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) content from federal government sites.

Taken-down pages include stories of Holocaust survivors and religious tolerance, as well as content about 9/11 and veterans’ issues.

The Defense Department used automated tools to identify and delete up to 24,000 pages.

Critics argue this erases significant historical narratives, while the Pentagon defends the move as necessary to end “Woke cultural Marxism.”

    Apparently, history is too woke. Just assume white guys did everything going back to Moses (if you believe in that).

    Some examples of white men throughout history:

    • Gengis Khan
    • Jesus (but not Confucius or Buddha—they are some woke shit)
    • Cleopatra - little known fact: she was actually three white man in a trenchcoat
    • Shaka Zulu - famous for conquering South Africa for white people who ruled benevolently until Nelson Mandela fucked up a good thing
    • Mahatma Gandhi - famous for inventing Trump-style diplomacy in the original Civilization video game. Probably not an actual historical figure.
