This isn't about "woke" government or DEI - it is removing civil right era protections against discrimination.

Chris Geidner @chrisgeidner.bsky.social · Jan 22

BREAKING: In a new executive order sent out by the White House, Donald Trump has revoked the federal contractor nondiscrimination executive order, EO 11246, that was signed by Lyndon Johnson in 1965 and has protected employees of businesses seeking federal contracts from discrimination ever since.

(b) The Federal contracting process shall be streamlined to enhance
speed and efficiency, reduce costs, and require Federal contractors and subcontractors to comply with our civil-rights laws. Accordingly:
(1) Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965 (Equal Employment Opportunity), is hereby revoked. For 90 days from the date of this order, Federal contractors may continue to comply with the regulatory scheme in effect on January 20, 2025.
(ii) The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs within the Department of Labor shall immediately cease:
(A) Promoting "diversity";
(B) Holding Federal contractors and subcontractors responsible for taking "affirmative action"; and
(C) Allowing or encouraging Federal contractors and subcontractors to engage in workforce balancing based on race, color, sex, sexual preference, religion, or national origin.

(iii) In accordance with Executive Order 13279 of December 12, 2002
(Equal Protection of the Laws for Faith-Based and Community
Organizations), the employment, procurement, and contracting practices of Federal contractors and subcontractors shall not consider race, color, sex, sexual preference, religion, or national origin in ways that violate the Nation's civil rights laws.
(iv) The head of each agency shall include in every contract or grant
award:
(A) A term requiring the contractual counterparty or grant recipient to agree that its compliance in all respects with all applicable Federal
anti-discrimination laws is material to the government's payment
decisions for purposes of section 3729(b) (4) of title 31, United States
Code; and
(B) A term requiring such counterparty or recipient to certify that it does not operate any programs promoting DEI that violate any applicable
Federal anti-discrimination laws.

"I never liked Neil Gaiman/Marilyn Manson/JK Rowling/insert problem child anyway."

But people did, and putting yourself on a pedestal above them as an attempt to feign some kind of pop culture superiority is a shitty thing to do.

Lascaille's Shroud @lascaillesshroud.bsky.social · Jan 14

The Neil Gaiman thing means people are once again thinking their taste in media is indicative of their morals. It is not. In fact, thinking your personal taste reflects your morals positively does the exact opposite. It doesn't help the victims to "but I never liked his work anyway" post. Shut up.
