Warriors Don't Want to Fight for a Woke, Anti-American Military
American Thinker ^ | 27 Mar, 2023 | J.B. Shurk

Posted on 03/27/2023 4:39:18 AM PDT by MtnClimber

The Pentagon has turned its back on authentic warriors while licking the boots of the nation's woke wimps.

The House Armed Services Subcommittee for Military Personnel held a hearing last week to discuss the growing national security crisis arising from the military's cratering recruitment numbers. A potpourri of Pentagon nincompoops all universally lauded the Defense Department's ideological obsession with "lived experiences" and "diversity for diversity's sake." While championing the Marxist military's decision to waste over six million man-hours of training on the dangers of "extremism" and "white privilege" and the seminal importance of "diversity, equity, and inclusion," not one Pentagon official could muster a real answer as to why recruiting numbers are so disastrous.

The touchy-feely, group hug–loving mandarins proved experts in Critical Race Theory but poor problem-solvers when tasked with the actual duties of their jobs — building and maintaining lethal military forces filled with top-notch warriors who will fight to win. Intentionally dividing Americans against each other and pouring salt in old wounds obliterate personnel cohesiveness. As Representative Elise Stefanik succinctly concluded: "Biden's woke agenda comes at the expense of our military's readiness."

Listening to high-ranking Defense Department bureaucrats bloviate and spin lies just as effortlessly as the politicians in D.C. always puts a bad taste in my mouth. It is an unfortunate truth that rank and promotion within the armed services are just as tainted by the same loathsome "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" disease that infects the rest of the federal government's compromised workforce. The end result is that, with a few notable exceptions, those who make it to the top of the military's hierarchy are light on talent and wisdom but weighed down with incompetence, craven career considerations, and an exuberant penchant for cocktail-circuit politicking.

I view this as a necessary step by the globalists to bring back the draft. If not enough people are signing up, they will need to be drafted to get the requisite man power.

I think they are planning a war.

The US Government wants to take away your VA disability starting in 2024. I just retired last year from the military. I tell everyone that I know not to let their kids join.

They don’t build leaders anymore. Your a tool to fight wars for the elite and the corporate perpetual war machine.

This is a dangerous problem — for domestic Americans.

On this path the military will slowly become populated by leftists, who would more easily be turned against our citizens…

Wasn’t that the whole idea? destroying the military is key to destroying these United States. The joke is on the American people for allowing this to happen. Elections matter but only close elections can be manipulated whereas major Landslide elections...not so much. As devious as divide and conquer is to these United States...it’s working. Divided we fall. Not pretty but pretty simple.

This country will never have a draft again. You can bank on that.

Oh, I think we will.
But it will be called something else and weak-minded young
people will be enticed to serve the Government, not just in military service.

Once they removed the 2% limit on women in the military in I believe 1972, the future was clear.

I wouldn’t bank on No Draft. When push comes to shove it will happen as it has in Ukraine. I predict a resurgence of “Press Gangs” That will pull kids out of the Universities to go into the New Revolutionary Guards. The new Army with have “Thought Police” Units to make sure all are using the right pronoun. Only the “Right People” will advance in rank, the right skin color etc...
