When Obama was elected, did that mean the whole country was Leftist?

Of course not.

This is also true with the military. The silent majority are NOT woke. They’ll still fight fo us.

I joined up post draft after the Civil Rights struggle and fully accepted blacks in the military—they were my brothers and any crazy enough to join up like me were accepted.

My grandparents thought integrating blacks into the US Military would destroy it. I’m from Alabama. They could not accept blacks as their equals. It was common thought back then, say up through the 1960s, that whites were the superior race. Us younger boomers didn’t think so, and believed we’re all the HUMAN race and the ideals that Doctor King articulated.

Today’s average teen just accepts gays the same way. Doesn’t mean they’re gay, they’re just more accepting of them and don’t really give a hoot about who they date.

Us boomers should remember that.

Every generation is going to be different, but there are still a hell of a lot of young patriots out there.

Except there is a huge difference.

The black man didn't ask to be black, but the gay person seeks it out by choice. The gay person wants to date the average teen and will call them homophobic if they do not accept. The gay person wants to do things that will destroy military morale, esprit-de-corp and feeling safe in the barracks.

There is a difference and ignoring it is what got us to this situation in the first place.

And if that all it were, I could almost understand it. But white males must not only accept it; but undergo indoctrination about how racist and homopobic they are and can do nothing to "undo" or overcome it; and celebrate their fellow service members for their sexuality and skin color. Things that are supposed to have nothing to do with completing military missions. If they don't like it, they better give no hint of displeasure of it. Grudging tolerance is not acceptable. Welcoming acceptance while understanding how wrong they are themselves is the mental state the top leaders are trying to inculcate.

“Gay”? No. SODOMITES is the correct term for those reprobates. D**k- smoking, turd-burglarin, butt pirates. We need to stop using their descripts and start calling them by what behaviors they actually engage.

Young masculine males, warrior material, will not bother taking the trouble to serve in the military when it has no usefulness in their journey to manhood.

Telling young men ‘become a Soldier or Marine and be a warrior’ doesn’t have the same appeal when it is followed by telling them ‘but make sure you bring along your sister, or your girlfriend, or your mom if she is under 40, because the job is so easy and meaningless and disrespected now that girls and middle age moms can do it’
