Lawrence J. Korb and Stephen J. Cimbala, Military.com: Is the American Military Too 'Woke'?
A theme that keeps dominating certain corners of media commentary is the idea that the U.S. armed forces have become “woke.”
In today's vocabulary, this implies that the American military has been overtaken by ideological imperatives that push a far-left political agenda.
Allegedly, U.S. enlisted personnel and officers are being subjected to compulsory exercises in groupthink that devalue the American historical experience, spread contempt for traditional American values and diminish the appeal of military service in favor of other alternatives.

ReplyDelete- Transvestites as ambassadors to 'help' recruiting

- Everything having to due with 'Climate change' and green energy
- CRT & DEI
Yes, it is woke.
Drag shows on base was a thing as far back as WW2.

ReplyDeleteFag
Woke as could be. Navy hiring drag queens as recruiters, USAF pushing pronounns and everything else, dumb ass female general saying she'll promote using racism and woke policies, Army just a disaster. No, it is not woke.
ReplyDeleteTask Force Smith, Kasserine Pass, Pearl Harbor will be like kiddy playland com[pared to what'll happen to the US military with China AND Russia fighting us, Iran meddling in the gulf area, and Kim pushing into South Korea.
It'll be a disaster of epic proportions for the US military.
"Drag shows on base was a thing as far back as WW2.'
ReplyDeleteJust assert and back it up with nothing.
well yeah they did but it was for comedy not wtf it is for now
DeleteLook, we are living through 5th generational warfare, which includes cultural diffusion, confusion of language, inversion of meaning etc. Just explain this to your close ones.
ReplyDeleteNot if they have power of attorney
DeleteIf it is like 2016, the Russians are here on both sides of the debate stirring the pot hard.
ReplyDeleteThe US military is woke and will be proven to be a joke. Never mind it not being my grandfathers Army, it ain’t my army 20 years ago.
ReplyDeleteI recognize my opinion is purely anecdotal but as a former infantryman with combat experience, here are my thoughts:
ReplyDeleteCombat arms before the actual combat--and aside from the training--was extremely rough and full of hazing. Significant energy turned inwards at rooting out weakness in a way that may not be ideal, but is nevertheless effective in its own way. Anyone being special, unique, sensitive, or even demanding reasonable treatment or consideration for who they are as an individual could not fit in that system. When it was time for combat, I understand there had been some value of regrettable things like the hazing and terrible treatment we'd received.
No one knows how a "woke" military will perform on the field of battle. It's never been tried. But I for one wouldn't want to be the first one to gamble on its effectiveness as a fighting force.
My grandfather's army
ReplyDeleteno gays
no women
segregate blacks into separate units
We had standards back then
then woke awoke
fag? so is your father if you can find him
ReplyDeleteThis all you bud
ReplyDeleteThese idiots have traded a highly efficient fighting force for a social experiment with. no idea how it will perform and without any historical precident.
ReplyDeleteThe military that saved us from th Nazis was great and had no blacks in combat units
The army since then has performed well, not exceedingly well, but well.
These clowns have disguarded that traditional model of an army for a social experiment
Sorry, but this is not Wal mart, Ford motor company or Disney corperation.
These idiots have no right to gamble with the safety of the republic for the sake of social convention.
Bottom line these fags are going to lose big time in the next big conflict we get into. Fighting the Russians and Chinese will not be like fighting in Iraq.
