It comes as the Department of Defense is conducting a “compliance review” of learning materials in its school system serving military families worldwide to see if they adhere to two executive orders signed by President Donald Trump regarding “gender ideology” and “racial indoctrination,” according to the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), the division that oversees the schools.

“As part of the review, books potentially related to gender ideology or discriminatory equity ideology topics as defined in the Executive Orders will be relocated to the professional staff collection for evaluation,” DoDEA spokesperson Will Griffin said in a statement provided to CNN Monday. “During this period, access will be limited to professional staff.”

So this book is about a child learning to love the skin she has, and they're like "nope, that's discriminatory equity ideology, can't have that." Jesus fucking Christ.

Because they have to spin it in a way that they won't seem discriminatory, but are anti-discriminatory.

Hungary used to have a law called "Numerus Calusus", which limited the number of Jews working in certain, "stereotypically Jewish" positions, in the name of equality, since "Jews were taking away important positions from Magyars".
