LEFTIST MEDIA OUTLET ATTACKS MARINES ON MEMORIAL DAY OVER ‘TOXIC MASCULINITY’
Breitbart ^ | 5-29-2017 | Charlie Nash

Posted on 05/29/2017 12:55:55 PM PDT by blam

Left-wing news outlet Vox attacked Marines on Memorial Day, claiming in an article that the Marine Corps has a “toxic masculinity problem.”

The article, which was simply titled “The Marine Corps has a ‘toxic masculinity’ problem,” continued to claim that the Marine Corps often “marginalizes or mistreats female troops.”

Citing the Marines United nude photo sharing scandal, Vox staff writer and defense correspondent Alex Ward attempted to link the Marines with systemic sexism and listed ways how the Corps could get rid of their “toxic masculinity.”

“And to be fair, it’s not just the Marines. Sexual assault has increased in other services, and even in military academies,” concluded Ward in the article. “According to one Pentagon review, there were 6,172 reports of sexual assault last year.”

At least it’s out in the open. Men are hated for being men by the Left.

That requires you take Construction OSHA-10.

I wonder if this limp-wristed sissy could take this opportunity to say this to a Marine’s face? Hahaha. Loser.

My Gaydar is pegging on this one. His mommie loves him, though.

It appears from the older lady’s reaction behind him, that he just farted!

I can tell you know their Bible.

Thank you for those pointers.

I was not aware of those things.

Today being a butt rimming queer is more hallowed than being a man in the marines.

Further evidence I think that the core of LEFTism is Narcissism. What other reason to publish an article attacking the US Military on Memorial Day than to get attention. To stick out while everyone else is doing the same thing....honoring the fallen. Find a way to stick out and rebelling is the sure way.

Something unwell about the LEFT wing mind. Start with Narcissism and I suppose from there, you arrive at the Godless mind. If you don’t believe in God, you become God. And if you think you are God, you will strive for that attention you feel you warrant.

Conservatives generally desire no such attention. And on Memorial Day they turn to God for comfort and inspiration. The LEFT turns to themself for the attention they aren’t getting. Even on Memorial Day.

Well, that’s how I see it anyways......

Since the invention of the term ‘toxic masculinity’ I’m waiting for someone to list some of the characteristics of toxic femininity.

Need for dozens and dozens of pairs of shoes?

Need to be late to anything the man wants to be on time to?

Need to menstruate?

Inability to accept recommendations to fix the issues being complained about - when in fact all they want is to feel like you care.

Of all the goofy, ridiculous junk the gay Left has come up with, this takes the cake!

Combat is about killing the other guy - or getting killed yourself. If you somehow find yourself in a life-or-death fight, you'd better hope and pray that the most toxic and masculine Marines on Earth are right nearby.

These people defy description..

No surprise from Vox, who hosts a slew of noxious left/LGBQWERTY sports and other types of blogs - all best avoided

Yep Godlessness is necessary to believe in these anti-belief systems

Don’t believe in God and natural laws, you have moral relativism where
any belief or political system is as at least as good as another and millions of govt benefit thieving Illegals aren’t breaking any of the Commandments

Looks like a typical cross between pajama boy and a girlie man.

There's nothing "toxic" about masculinity when these guys are on the battlefield.

Except toward the enemy.

Judging from his mugshot, I would venture to guess, that he wouldn’t repeat any of his drivel to any US Marine.
