Diversity is our strength – until the first shot is fired in anger
73 Easting ^ | March 23, 2024 | Ray Starmann

Our national security is currently predicated on a fantasy; the pipe dream of gender equality, the fantasy of the female warrior meeting our enemies on the field of battle and defeating them in combat.

It is a Potemkin Village that will implode like a house of cards the moment the first shot is fired in anger.

The lunatic idea of female warriors is promulgated by Hollywood. For 25 years, we have been force fed endless TV series with the female cop who looks like a model, and with a gun and badge the size of her waist. In a dark pants suit, she’s able to dispatch bad guys with the aplomb of Chuck Norris on an all night commando raid. Tinseltown bombards us with female Navy SEALs, female Viking warriors wielding swords the average woman couldn’t even swing, female super spies beating up four or five Russian heavies in a single blow.

But, that’s just fantasy.

And, so is our national security policy.

Women are now everywhere in the US military; on ships, flying jets, in the combat arms, in special forces. Standards have been lowered so much to accommodate females that your dead great grandma could be an Army Ranger now.

The whole US military infrastructure has been altered to accommodate females with things like lactation stations at military bases and breast pumping directives for females going on field exercises. Tucker Carlson was scorched by the cultural Marxists when he asked why the military had developed a combat maternity flight suit.

Why are we sending pregnant women into combat?

Why are we sending any women into combat?

It seems that every day, every week, every month is some asinine celebration of Female Warriors in the US military.

Ridiculous praise is heaped upon random women and their apparent integral roles in US history. “In 1776, Juanita Chamchuka, an Eskimo-American housekeeper and lesbian handed General Washington a cup of tea after the Battle of Trenton. This clearly shows the incredible contribution of Eskimo lesbians to American history."

Oh, praise diversity!

How did this happen? It’s quite simple: the Vietnam vets who rebuilt the military left the service shortly after the end of the Gulf War in 1991. The great draft dodger was elected and began to implement policies in 1993 which allowed females to serve in support units that would expose them to danger. Sometime in the late 90’s the snowball really started rolling downhill. Women were given permission to fly combat aircraft in the US Navy and Air Force. By 2015, Ash Carter, under orders from Barry Soetero, authorized women to serve in the combat arms of the US military, aka, the guys who close with and kill the enemy.

Of course none of this could have happened without the completely gutless leadership of numerous perfumed princes and feather merchants with stars in the Pentagon. Anyone who disagreed with this lunacy was shown the door.

To illustrate how great our new coed army really was, during the Iraq War, feminists and cowards in the Beltway concocted a story that PFC Jessica Lynch, fought it out with the tangos like John Wayne at the Alamo, before she was captured by the enemy. After being rescued in some Ridley Scott type of show biz operation, she was decorated with the Bronze Star. Later it was revealed her weapon jammed, no doubt because it was dirty and she never fired a shot. She was cold cocked when her truck ran off the road during an ambush.

Defenders of the gender neutral military will give you examples of Soviet women in the Red Army. Women primarily served in medical and support roles with a handful as snipers. The Israelis had so many problems with women in the Six Day War that they decided to assign female soldiers as instructors. There are women in border security units in the IDF, but they are not in the combat arms.

No one seems to want to answer the most important question: how does having one women in any combat environment increase a unit’s operational tempo?

War is about inflicting violence faster than the enemy. The in depth USMC study eight years ago showed in immense detail that all male Marine units clearly outperformed coed and all female Marine units in numerous simulated combat tasks and situations.

The study was thrown out the window by cultural Maoist and the worst Sec Navy in US history, Ray Mabus.

The perfumed princes wonder why no young guys are signing up for the military anymore. It’s pretty simple. It’s a girls club now. It’s an environment that’s just not fun. Gone are the drinking, whoring skirt chasing rowdy days when your leaders didn’t really care what you did in your free time as long as you could put cold steel down range and you were at your place of duty the next day. The military in 2024 resembles some locked up corporation run by waddling mommies. It’s a country day school ensemble.

It's a joke.

We’re headed for a disaster. It’s pretty obvious. Then the American public, many but not all, whose idea of patriotic service and devotion to duty is standing at attention with a bucket of KFC as the national anthem plays will scratch their heads and wonder just what in the heck went wrong.

By the way, if you’re not doing anything on April 24th, feel free to attend the US Naval Institute’s celebration of the Female Naval Warrior in history. Come one, come all to this extravaganza and celebration of fantasy.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusiveness!

Its so much easier to accept the propaganda when our female warriors look like Scarlett Johannson or Gal Gadot

When in fact, "our female warriors" are actually like Rosy O'Donnell, Whoopi Goldberg or Richard Levine.

So does the government, and so do most corporations.

1/3.

1/3 of all females were non deployable or returned early from their tour due to pregnancy in 1AD 2003-2004 in Baghdad Iraq

He’s right. And if the Woke really believed their BS, they’d require women to register with the Selective Service.

1AD suffered a greater loss in manpower from females being non deployable than from all enemy activity combined.

This was no anomaly.

The DOD knowing what the current prevailing political and social winds are, simply doesn’t talk about it.

This nonsense works as long as you face off with a third rate enemy, or you have a massive numerical advantage and the massive logistics and extra manpower to make things work anyhow. But God help us if we face off with a competent enemy.

“Its so much easier to accept the propaganda when our female warriors look like Scarlett Johannson or Gal Gadot”

And can beat a 225 pound male trained operator in a fist fight. It’s so delusional, I can’t even watch movies any more. The reality is the “female warrior” looks like the tattooed waitress at Appleby’s or the black female with an attitude cashier at Walmart, neither one of which you would want watching your back when the shooting starts. Of course, this does not apply to all the FReepers who have daughters, wives, or other female relatives in the military. I’m sure they’re all perfectly capable.

Forget the military, females shouldn’t even be allowed to be cops on the street...They used to be utilized in administrative and dispatch roles, but the Communist left who hijacked government at all levels, did away with all that. This was an incredibly stupid, dangerous idea...

unless it’s the “50 foot woman”. women in true combat situations are a liability. as an aside, a source briefly claimed the 50 foot woman was p.o.ed because she couldn’t find a 60 foot man with the right equipment but that couldn’t be verified by that particular source as she went off diet at the same time.

Diversity is perversity and the road to chaos and ruin. The concept of avoiding wrong headed group think and instead tapping a pool of different experience, knowledge and thinking has been corrupted from a good idea to a horrible one of a much different rainbow of colors contributing not strength but just the opposite.

That pretty much describes my 2 year tour in Germany in the late 80s. ;-)

I'm not sure what's worse. The fact they expect us the believe it could happen, or the fact there are some posters to that video who don't appear to have the capacity to separate the fantasy from reality as if Scarlett was actually fighting real security guards.

Diversity is the reason that Christianity is no longer the de facto religion of the USA, and it is the reason that Christendom and Western Civilization are crumbling.

We have an immigration and open border policy designed by an insane, drunken leftist in the 1960s by the name of Ted Kennedy.

It is absolutely insane to continue worshipping diversity and open borders - it is marxism and it is destroying everything we hold decent that our forefathers fought and died for.

"National security" has nothing to do with security of ordinary citizens. It's all about the ruling class and their murderous enterprises.

And it's not "our" military, it's a colonial police force for globalism.

Don't complain about your enemies weakening their military.

America’s diversity is its downfall and demise. America is done but does not recognize it.

Yes. It is time for a Francisco Franco or Augusto Pinochet for this new generation.

Add in the number of companies women have driven into the ground and the emotional, histrionic methods they use as elected representatives, both legislative and executive (even on “our” side), and you have 360 degrees of feminine failure in every position of leadership imaginable.

Obviously the 19th amendment was a mistake.
