Hope these articles get restored, because pretending the past didn’t exist does no good for anyone
Edit: The Navajo code talkers were important for both World Wars, and Jackie Robinson’s character as an honest man is a large part of why he was able to break baseball’s color barrier to begin with.
I’ll probably send them an email if I can, because whatever people Elon has working for him are overdoing it for stories like this. The entire reason that the Navajo code talkers were effective to begin with is because they’re a minority, and I really shouldn’t have to explain why Jackie Robinson matters.
If we take their claim that it was an "automated removal" at face value then it looks like their approach to clearing the trash is to have an automated check for keywords and silo everything it tags into an offline state (hence the DEI URLs and 404ing pages), then go through and review everything there manually and restore the records that actually deserve their place.
It's probably a good approach when you're dealing with malicious compliance and deliberate go-slows. Now they can't stop you removing their propaganda by dragging their feet, they can only slow people's well deserved public honors being returned.
