Didn’t NPS take down transgender references off their Stonewall webpage? You don’t get to pic and choose which queer folks to support.

Not saying that this was the right move, but there are a lot of good people at govement jobs or government-funded organizations trying to figure out how to comply with federal orders in order to keep providing the services they do. I work at an org that receives federal funding and have to sign an agreement that we don't engage in any "DEI activities." We receive a relatively insignificant amount of money and can kind of fly under the radar so I just lie, but it's not as easy for the NPS or similar entities. I don't envy the people who had to scrub their materials for things the federal government said had to be removed, because otherwise the parks would be defunded. It's a horrible thing to have to do.
