Trump wants to censor and Trumpify the Smithsonian
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politic...ant-be-trusted"The Smithsonian Ins ution, and the National Museum of American History in particular, under its current leadership and current interpretive ideology, cannot be trusted to tell America's story honestly and in a way that is inspiring, unifying, and worthy of our great republic," according to the report by the council, which is led by a former top Trump speechwriter.
The authors added: "As this report shows, confirmed in the words of Museum leadership, this ideological capture has moved the Museum's mission away from straightforward historical education and scholarship toward an extreme political activism that seeks to transform our country."

woke is when Republicans spend millions to mandate state indoctrination at a university and only one person signs up
Only one student has registered for courses at West Virginia University’s new Washington Center, an academic program mandated by Republican lawmakers for the campus.
State lawmakers have allocated $3 million in state dollars to the “Washington Center for Civics, Culture and Statesmanship” in the last two years ahead of it officially opening this fall.
“I do think that it’s important for the Legislature and for the governor to reflect on this… there is a question about whether or not this is the best use of public funds,” said Erik Herron, a professor of political science at WVU. “I think the Washington Center, ironically, seems to be exactly what it complains that higher education has become. It was created in Charleston, and it was imposed on the university, so it’s a big government mandate.”
https://westvirginiawatch.com/2026/0...on-of-program/“Dr. Miller and the Washington Center are going to push back on the woke ideology that has infected our schools and help return higher education to its true purpose,” Morrisey said during a press conference last year.
House Bill 3297 mandated that WVU operate the Washington Center focused on teaching cons utional studies and “great debates of Western civilization.”
Proposed college courses this fall include “Woke,” “Nation and Migration” and “The New Right.” The center has hired faculty members ahead of its launch.
“As of June 22, one student was enrolled in three separate Washington Center courses,” said Shauna Johnson, WVU’s executive director of strategic communications. “Twenty-four courses were originally proposed/listed for the Fall 2026 semester. Eighteen are now available.”
The $3 million in state funding, which included $1.5 million in the Fiscal Year 2027 budget, also covers a scholarship available to Washington Center students.
Miller did not return interview requests for this story.
WV could do like Iowa and make political indoctrination a core requirement
*1926 atavism and vibes*
Ohio is considering making conservative political indoctrination a core requirement in colleges and universities
lol DEI for conservative ideas that already failed in the free market

All references to “evolution” are changed to “development” and mentions of human evolution are entirely removed.
Woke means whatever the oligarchs want it to, in order to make people like you more easily manipulated.
When an ideology cannot win in marketplace of ideas, it will resort to totalitarianism of ideas.
*yawn
it's true that woke is semantically diffuse and a bit of a catch-all, that's one of its strong points
a funnel for anything at all that merely annoys
New Right studies at WV
https://bsky.app/profile/nateo.bsky..../3mqqyfpd3qs2iOf note, if these university classes require purchasing textbooks, most of these books are only available through Arktos Press, which is a fascist press that almost exclusively publishes fascist propaganda from, and I’m not being hyperbolic here, fascists that called themselves fascists
woke was annoying, but at the end of the day it was mainly elective coursework and changing social mores in the public sphere
by contrast, anti-woke state censorship is already prevalent and right-wing political indoctrination is becoming a core requirement at colleges

coercive funding, censorship and lawfare out the wazoo
most intrusive/restrictive government the US as ever seen, tbh
https://www.reuters.com/legal/govern...it-2026-08-04/U.S. President Donald Trump repeatedly campaigned for his second term as a champion of free expression, vowing in his January 2025 inaugural address to stop what he described as years of "government censorship."
Since then, a wave of court rulings has concluded his administration has done the opposite. Reuters identified 75 federal-judge rulings finding Trump’s government infringed on First-Amendment rights including freedoms of speech, religion, and the press.

interesting study
college professors influence partisanship marginally
the study even shows a modest backlash against Democratic party identified faculty
