Summary
NASA eliminated its chief scientist’s office and two departments, including diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA), following Trump administration orders aimed at federal efficiency.
Trump’s acting administrator Janet Petro labeled DEIA initiatives “divisive” and “wasteful,” sparking criticism amid NASA’s ongoing Artemis program that aims to land the first woman and person of color on the moon.
Analysts and scientists fear irreversible damage to climate policy and diversity efforts, with astrophysicist Grant Tremblay warning, “Its gutting has begun… Many of these cuts are likely to be essentially irreversible.”
I love this hot take that inclusivity is divisive. Or that anything they don’t like is divisive. And I especially like how people are supposed to care racists are offended by something which goes against their belief system.
If being divisive is so bad then we need to make being MAGA, Republican, and in general right wing divisive.
Boycott.
Good riddance, what have scientists ever done for us?
/sI mean It’s not like it’s exactly rocket sci…nevermind. These idiots are gonna doom us all.
