      This is what disgusts me. I get removing DEI (not that I agree with it AT FUCKING ALL) as you’re just removing verbiage, but if you’re removing actual articles and data? That’s as bad as burning a book. The fuck is wrong with these people. I get needing to make a paycheck but seriously wtf.

        the paycheck thing is why i find nasa going along particularly egregious, pretty sure there’s people at nasa making extraordinarily large bucks and they have a moral duty to take the hit, sacrifice their careers to make a stand against the fascists since they can afford to do so.

      Clearly. Wasting stuff that’s already been paid for bc it no longer “fits the mission” is probably the smartest way to save money. Thank God we have these elite minds guiding our way.

      Comic books that didn’t fit the mission

      EV charging stations removed from every federal building

      Clinical trials and experiments that were halted midway so they could be investigated for DEI

      The only thing smarter than that would be wasting money on something other countries had already agreed to buy from us. Good thing our dear leaders planned ahead and destroyed USAID before all those American farmers got paid for their crops.
