Eric Geller @ericgellerIt's happening: The White House has ordered the EPA to delete its climate change page. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-epa-climatechange-idUSKBN15906G
The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right. And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposedif all records told the same talethen the lie passed into history and became truth. 'Who controls the past' ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.' -1984

(2,263 posts)2. how to preserve the content?
All of those pages should be harvested and archived.
I'm technical, and I'm doing searches to find a way to try to reliably capture all of that content, but right now all I've got is going to each individual page and saving them to a folder.
Any geeks out there have any better solutions?

Lysenkoism. It would be ironic, but as Trump is nestled softly and warmly in his metaphorical Moscow dacha, I guess it's not really a surprise he uses Soviet-style tactics to force alternative-science on the narrative.
