    Weirdos that lived in the shadows and were marginalized because of their extreme views are now out in the sunlight.

    If this is true - it reminds me of John Ashcroft covering up Lady Justice because of nudity.

    Just - some of these people like Miller are not fit to make decisions that impact other people’s lives.

    This is true, they are using the LLM/multi modal equivalent of CTRL - F for "gay" or "diversity" or whatever .

    Several photos of an Army Corps of Engineers dredging project in California were marked for deletion, apparently because a local engineer in the photo had the last name Gay. And a photo of Army Corps biologists was on the list, seemingly because it mentioned they were recording data about fish — including their weight, size, hatchery and gender.​

    Just dumb as **** idiots like the real Nazis

    What has stood out - other than the speed all of this has happened, is how incredibly sloppy it has been.

    I have a friend named Michael Gaydon.
    I will now have to inform him, his daughter need not apply for military service.

    Talk about radical swings.
    I'm not the biggest DEI fan but deleting history over a word is just asinine

    Good morning!

    I'm certain that this is the result of someone searching for the word "gay" and removing all of that content without actually reviewing it, which is dumb. As you've pointed out, there are uses of the word (or name) "gay" that are not references to homosexuality and should not be removed. Probably an error.

    (...and ATW has left the bbs.)

    What do you mean? An administration that hired a 19-year-old named Big Balls isn't deliberate?

    Has Trump had them scrub any mention of "Fat Man"?

    No it's the result of a years long propaganda campaign by freedom hating pieces of **** & gutter racists.

    Massie told a story about this when he was a local commissioner in Kentucky. He sent out a notice that he was disconnecting all phone lines unless told they were in use. He had one false positive that was shut off when it shouldn't, but otherwise saved a ton of money shutting down unused lines. Same idea here getting rid of all this wasteful DEI garbage.

    Either this is malicious compliance (in which case fire the malcontents involved), or a fixable mistake.

    When there is so much unmanageable rot in the system, sometimes the best thing is to shut it all down and then figure out what to bring back.

    Elon's idea for an email saying five things you did had the same purpose. Just prove you even exist.

    So if "gay" was referring to homosexuality removal is justified?

    I missed it completely. Why did ATW leave? Did he finally post something so egregious that he got booted?

    I have no idea what the motivation was behind the person who did it. I can, therefore, not offer any justification or explanation for the removal (or lack of removal) of the content. In short - I dunno.

    racism and bigotry should be classified as a mental disorder in the DSM-5, but I also don’t want to give these people an excuse for their innate wickedness

    Probably just claimed his life back and is enjoying things like sports, outdoors, and family. I know, it’s weird.

    In that pop synth genre.
    Chicks dug OMD and Psychedelic Furs after 16 Candles.
    Gotta please the ladies.

    I'm a rocker through and through but I listen to everything.
