By promoting diversity over fighting ability the Army is alienating its warriors (Australia)
Daily Telegraph (Sydney) ^ | 27th February 2017 | Miranda Devine

THE “diversity” revolution that Lieutenant General David Morrison inflicted on the Australian Army now threatens to diminish our war fighting capability.

Five years after the former Army chief and former Sex Discrimination Commissioner Liz Broderick launched a social engineering experiment aimed at stamping out the male “Anglo Saxon” warrior culture, the troops are unimpressed.

The top brass might have drunk the feminist Koolaid of “Pathway to Change” and its mutant offshoots, but most of the people they command are sceptical about gender fluidity, appeasement of radical Islam, and promotion by chromosome as payback for 116 years of military patriarchy.

“People just think it’s crap,” said one young officer.

To overcome such common sense thinking, diversity experts have designed a $30,000 program effectively to brainwash young leaders in the Army to become “champions of change” and stamp out the “white Anglo-Saxon male” culture they are told no longer has a place in the military.

In October, a handpicked group was taken to Sydney and Canberra for the “Junior Leaders Shaping Future Army”, and subjected to five-days of diversity indoctrination.

On day one was a three-hour session from an imam explaining his “Islamic conversion testimony” and proselytising the benefits of Islam, according to one participant who took detailed notes.

The lecture went down so badly that a planned mosque visit on the schedule the next day was cancelled without explanation.

“The typical Defence hero is a hero in uniform from an Anglo-Australian background who performs acts of bravery in battle and models the values of courage and sacrifice... This type of hero is unnecessarily exclusive and works against the desire for Defence ‘to represent the community it serves’,” writes education academic Dr Elizabeth Thomson in her 2014 report: “Battling with words”.

China is interested in a big empty continent for part of its population. But Australia has this rather annoying bunch of folks that can really fight when they are riled. Figure out how to demoralize them so they won’t fight when they need to or simply fight poorly. Conquer the continent, expel those nasty folks and move in the colonists by the tens and hundreds of millions.

if the army is smart- they will quietly and without fanfare, begin organizing troops that are strong and troops that aren’t- move all the weaker soldiers into units that don’t see combat that requires massive strength- and keep the elites for combat that does- do this subtly- without letting on that it is happening- if questioned- have a few token weak folks in the strong units to say “Nope- we’re diversified- so go suck an egg’ - and keep denying it if it gets exposed- You can deny for a good many years- and the good things about liberals is that they are so consumed by perpetual outrage over everything that they will quickly move on to new areas to be ‘outraged’ over- if liberals are ignored long enough they defeat themselves-

Well we certainly don't want any warriors in the Army.

The bottom line is that the hatred of white men extends around the globe. No other explanation.

I think, more specifically, it is hatred for traditional Anglo-American culture. Obama was the poster boi for those forces.

Political Correctness wants to deny that third world immigrants are drawn to first world countries by the culture already there. They want to act as if its just random chance that they prefer Australia to Afghanistan. But the immigrants have a cultural preference. There is nothing wrong with natives sharing that preference. You like America better than Mexico? So do I. You like living in a Christian country better than living in a Muslim country? Me too.

Nice to see that the USA doesn’t have a monopoly on stupidity! Our nitwits running the military have been deballed just as they have.
