The first human in space (that we know about) has his achievement expunged, because some later despotic hooligan (whom he could never have known) commits war acts 60 years after the fact.

Cancelled by the same mindset that lorded over Stalin's USSR.

Some wonder why I fly the silly Pepe avatars?....Now you know....

Stupid, but at least for a far worthier cause than what inbreds cancelled french fries over back when we started our own special military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
 
Well, he was first cancelled by an Su-15 flyby causing his own jet to crash, so he's used to it by now.
 
Altering history to deal with current events is nothing new. Documentaries dealing with the U.S. moon landing usually omit Nixon while JFK is often mentioned.

In fact, his achievement was cancelled because according to FAI guidelines at the time, for a spaceflight to be considered successful, the astro/cosmonaut had to return to earth is his vehicle.

Gagarin ejected from his space capsule at 21,000 feet because Russians were not sure the recovery parachutes and jets would function.

This fact wasn't released until much later, after FAI had already certified his flight.

He still gets the credit for being the first human to travel into space (and orbital flight compared to the USA's first two flights, which were sub-orbital).

typical left wing thinking...'the degree of stupidity applied should be equal to the worthiness of the cause'...but your analogy that renaming of french fries trump the banishment of left wing/communist/socialist cosmonauts should be met with praise :bowdown::WooHooSmileyWave-vi::thup::beer::banana::happy-1::eusa_dance: :abgg2q.jpg:

Does this mean that Alan Shepard is now the first man in space?

Gagarin did beat him into space ... he just didn't have a valid return according to the rules.

And both he and Titov beat us into orbit ...

If lib cancel culture no longer “sees” Gagarin then shepard should be the new first
