these folks are unreconstructed segregationists and it isn’t even speculative or a difficult argument at this point

“An Army webpage from 2008 that lauded the 60th anniversary of President Harry Truman’s 1948 integration order has disappeared. It was available as recently as last year, web archives show” talkingpointsmemo.com/news/pentago...

Shouldn't those headlines read: "Trump Regime removes content from Pentagon website?"

juliadilliard.bsky.social•16 days ago

Despicable. Rewriting history is a fascist tactic.

cowhandheavy.bsky.social•16 days ago

What Hegseth is doing is a dereliction of duty to uphold the traditions and historic achievements of our men and women who have and do serve our nation. He is a misogynistic drunk white nationalist that Democrats let in to destroy OUR sacrifices for our nation!

cdespres.bsky.social•16 days ago

One day he will be removed from the Pentagon.

We are in this mess because the quote on quote decent white people failed continuously to call things what they are. The media, made up by majority of whites still refuse to say there is an attack on civil rights…. They prefer to keep saying DEI which plays into the evil wp hands.

It's a looooooooong tradition

Id kick Pete Hegseth in his city boy nuts for one dollar.

brokenwing.bsky.social•16 days ago

They’re slavers.

mm132021.bsky.social•16 days ago

Indeed. Their unreconstructed segregationism is overt and explicit.

usmcwizard.bsky.social•16 days ago

Who else believes the DUI hire, Hegseth, is a racist piece of shit?

sophienotemily.bsky.social•16 days ago

it's actually literal now https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2025/03/18/nx-s1-5326118/segregation-federal-contracts-far-regulation-trump

As historical documents, this is absolutely revolting and beyond the pale! If they preserve the documents but do not post them online, OK.. . They have their heads up their a$$es, but what can we say? If they destroy the documents, they need to be drawn and quartered!🤬

Breaking - Hegseth contracts for 500 "Colored Only" water fountains to be installed in the Pentagon.

Hesgeth is a hardcore White Nationalist

That’s why he was removed from a security detail, his biases are that obvious and bad even for the SS

jasonandrade.bsky.social•16 days ago

There's no chance of an Admiral Percy Fitzwallace ever serving at this level in Pete Hegeseth's Department of Defence..

Must just be another oops like every other time they have been caught.

leftinfighter.bsky.social•16 days ago

But also, they are gay and cringe and aimlessly seeking new ways to "trigger the libs" so their defenders double down harder

Lincoln should've hanged a whole lot more Confederates

drloisweiner.bsky.social•16 days ago

It's been clear since Trump 1 they want to turn back gains of Reconstruction.

firejourney.bsky.social•16 days ago

The gains of reconstruction were turned back with Jim Crow segregation. I agree they want to turn back but think it’s the new deal, great society and civil rights gains they want to turn back.

drloisweiner.bsky.social•16 days ago

That too.

feemus.bsky.social•16 days ago

Strongly agree, reconstruction was not a success

robniser78.bsky.social•16 days ago

This yearning to "Make America Great Again" is being manipulated to craft an "apartheid 2.0" here in the USA. Musk is the primary promoter.

cuttybrown.bsky.social•16 days ago

it's worse than that .

feemus.bsky.social•16 days ago

He’ll be there for a long time. We can console ourselves in the meantime with the thought that death comes to us all.

This is not a death threat, just dismay at the possibility that he might be in his post forever if Trump destroys the 2 terms for president law

diversity of beliefs ranging from pre-1865 white supremacy to post-1865 white supremacy

They have to be defeated this time. The Confederacy has been festering long enough.

Dismantle every upcoming segregated facility. Dismantle every bathroom, smash every window. Don't let them have it

Stop the digital genocide.

raginpagan.bsky.social•16 days ago

Poof! Never happened. How can we save our history? If we don’t the fascists will, and literally are deleting us?

gtoe.bsky.social•16 days ago

Thanks, congresspeople for not questioning Gegseth on the racist tattoos that got him kicked out of the military.

riz4robot.bsky.social•16 days ago

racist no question

how many poc voted for this shit?

shame on you for getting taken like this

brainnervous.bsky.social•16 days ago

The best part is how well trump did with black men and Hispanics so you know what, let them go backwards 70 years with civil rights. As a liberal white guy, I tried and am done fighting their cause.

mx0x20wednesday.bsky.social•16 days ago

needed to hang more plantation owners fr

filtertron-tele.bsky.social•16 days ago

Every confederate officer that didn’t hang was a policy failure.

cabbageridge.bsky.social•16 days ago

Surely these documents still exist somewhere in the archives. Even if these bastards erase them from their site doesn’t mean they are gone forever I hope

aqaraza.bsky.social•16 days ago

I think it’s possibly worse, or at least as bad, as that — they seek to remove all traces that historical advances in our society ever even came to pass..

citychicken.bsky.social•16 days ago

When that story broke about how some group produced a list of "woke" generals that Hegseth should fire (including one whose sole offense was recruiting at Howard), I *hoped* Hegseth wouldn't get confirmed but was *confident* that if he was, people would sit him down and explain how stupid that was.
