Pentagon Orders Military to Remove Diversity Content from Online Platforms
In a significant move, the Pentagon has directed various military bases, including Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Luke Air Force Base, to purge their websites and social media accounts of content related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). This initiative, described as a Digital Content Refresh, aims to comply with orders to erase references to DEI, reflecting a broader trend in military communications. The Department of Defense has set a deadline for the removal of such content, with multiple installations reporting their ongoing efforts to adhere to this directive. This reflects a shift in policy that aligns with previous executive directives concerning DEI initiatives.
