VasTrump, who has sought to root out “wokeness” since returning to power in January, accused the Smithsonian of trying to rewrite history on issues of race and gender. In an executive order entitled “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History”, he directed the removal of “improper, divisive or anti-American ideology” from its storied museums..<a href="https://newsie.social/tags/Smithsonian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Smithsonian</a>..<a href="https://newsie.social/tags/GOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GOP</a>..<a href="https://newsie.social/tags/whitenationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#whitenationalism</a> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/30/smithsonian-institution-trump-executive-order" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/30/smithsonian-institution-trump-executive-order</a>

Wirklich bitter, dass es in der letzten Legislaturperiode nicht gelungen ist, das Wort “Rasse” aus dem deutschen Grundgesetz zu streichen bzw. den Passus so umzuformulieren, dass klar wird, Rassismus ist Menschen so zu behandeln, als gäbe es Rassen. Was nicht der Fall ist, “Rasse” ist ein seit Ewigkeiten widerlegter pseudowissenschaftlicher Unfug.<a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/restoring-truth-and-sanity-to-american-history/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/03/restoring-truth-and-sanity-to-american-history/</a>

Pete H :verified: CISSP/ISO27KWelcome to the Ministry of Culture: Where Art Goes to Die Quietly in a Patriotically Approved CornerNothing screams “freedom” quite like the government telling museums which stories are too real and which artists are too brown.In the latest installment of “Make Art Great Again,” Trump’s regime has decided that cultural institutions like the Smithsonian and the Kennedy Center are just a little too independent. Can’t have artists running around making people think or, doG forbid, reflect. So out goes “The Shape of Power” exhibit for being “divisive,” and in comes a new aesthetic: Norman Rockwell, but make it autocratic.The Smithsonian’s been told to clean house, and we all know what that means. Anything that centers race, systemic injustice, queer identity, or uncomfortable truths gets quietly repatriated to oblivion. Meanwhile, the Kennedy Center has seen its Social Impact team dismantled and its Artistic Director fired; for what? Caring too much about actual impact. Apparently, art that speaks to society is now “inappropriate.” Unless, of course, it’s glorifying flags, founding fathers, or folks who’ve never had to protest anything other than brunch prices.We’ve seen this playbook before. It ran in Germany. It aired in Italy. It sold out stadiums in 1930s Europe. Authoritarian regimes don’t hate art—they just hate art they can’t control. And now, in 2025 America, the long knives have been replaced by executive orders and budget cuts.Let’s be clear: this isn’t just a culture war. It’s a cultural purge; a forced rewriting of national memory, where history gets edited with the same grace and subtlety as a Soviet photo archive.You might think, “Well, they’re just targeting a few exhibits or programs.” But this is death by a thousand redactions. A chilling signal to artists, curators, and institutions: Comply or be cut. Conform or be canceled (ironically, by the same people who whine about cancel culture between golf rounds and grift emails).The real tragedy? We’re watching it happen in real time—this gutting of public arts, this sanitizing of culture—and people are still asking, “But isn’t this just about restoring balance?” Sure. If by balance you mean tipping everything into the sea and lighting it on fire.So here’s to the brave artists who refuse to be scrubbed out of history, and to the rest of us: wake up. Because the last time governments told museums what they could show, the world got a lot darker. And no one’s commissioning murals about that. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ArtsAndCulture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArtsAndCulture</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Censorship</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FreedomOfExpression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreedomOfExpression</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CulturalHeritage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CulturalHeritage</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/MuseumLeadership" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MuseumLeadership</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ArtsAdvocacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArtsAdvocacy</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HumanRights</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/PublicPolicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PublicPolicy</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CreativeFreedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CreativeFreedom</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/LeadershipInCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LeadershipInCrisis</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/DefendTheArts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DefendTheArts</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HistoricalNarrative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HistoricalNarrative</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SocialImpact" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SocialImpact</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CivicEngagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CivicEngagement</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Smithsonian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Smithsonian</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/KennedyCenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KennedyCenter</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Authoritarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Authoritarianism</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/RewritingHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RewritingHistory</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ArtMatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ArtMatters</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/voicesthatmatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#voicesthatmatter</a>
