This is the same military that is cool with allowing transgenders, who tend to have serious mental health issues, to join, and even offered to pay for sex change operations. The same military which allowed gang members to join, and had a hard problem getting rid of them. The same military which has often put Social Justice Warrioring and Virtue Signaling above the mission of protecting the United States. One thing I’ve said many times is that Progressives have very long term plans, and work to take sectors over. I won’t go into the whole thing again, but, in the 1970’s they hated the military, and wanted to eliminate it. Since they couldn’t they infiltrated the military to change it from the inside
Joe Biden’s Pentagon Pick Lloyd Austin Vows to Rid Military Ranks of ‘Racists and Extremists’
Lloyd Austin, President-elect Joe Biden’s nominee for defense secretary, said Tuesday during his confirmation hearing that he would work to rid the military of “racists and extremists.â€
During his opening remarks, Lloyd Austin stated:
We also owe our people a working environment free of discrimination, hate and harassment. If confirmed, I will fight hard to stamp out sexual assault, to rid our ranks of racists and extremists, and to create a climate where everyone fit and willing has the opportunity to serve this country with dignity. The job of the Department of Defense is to keep America safe from our enemies. But we can’t do that if some of those enemies lie within our own ranks.
Democrats in recent days have sounded the alarm over the prospect of extremists in the military, after veterans and active-duty members of the military were identified attending a pro-Trump protest at the Capitol on January 6, with some breaching the Capitol building. (snip)
He said that a 2019 Military Times analysis found that 36 percent of active duty service members have seen evidence of white supremacist and racist ideologies in the military and asked Austin what kind of training he would suggest for service members to lead to a military “immune from superstition and not so gullible as to fall for these false ideologies.â€
Austin said leaders need to be trained to be in touch with their troops to understand “who they are, what they are doing, what they are reading,†and be aware of signs that could indicate something is going in the wrong direction.
What he means is that the military, which typically votes around 59-41 for Republicans, will see purges of Republican voters. They will find excuses to get rid of them as extremists and raaaaacists. Which might find the military, and Austin, being sued for violation of the 1st Amendment Rights of those military members. And, will keep a lot of people from joining the military, along with significantly reducing retention rates.
“I will want the leaders of all the services and all of the departments to make sure that they’re doing the right things to set the right example and to create the right climate that discourages and eliminates that type of behavior,†he said.
“And this is not something we can be passive on. This is something I think we have to be active on and we have to lean into it and make sure we’re doing the right things to create the right climate,†he said.
Basically, the US military is going to become the Peace Corps, rather than a hardcore fighting machine protecting the nation. You soon won’t be able to distinguish it from most left wing organizations, other than the guns and stuff. At that point, would it be a conspiracy theory to think that the US military would side with those support the Constitution? That they would be used to snuff out freedoms at home rather than protect them?
