US Military Academy Introduces Woke Curriculum with Courses on Deconstructing Patriotism, Cross-Dressing in the Military, Gender Norms, and Representation in the Ranks

The United States Military Academy at West Point is introducing a new curriculum that includes courses on “deconstructing patriotism,” “cross-dressing in the military,” and other topics related to gender norms and representation.

These courses are part of a broader initiative by the Biden regime to integrate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) propaganda into the curriculum over duty, honor, and country.

Former Navy SEAL and Representative Scott Taylor (R-VA) tweeted his concerns after the curriculum was reportedly shared with him, stating, “This was sent to me, classes at U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Quite sure China and Russia are not teaching this nonsense to their officers. Fix yourself.”

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton also weighed in, calling out the Biden regime for “abusing cadets at West Point” through indoctrination.

The controversial courses are as follows:

  1. Deconstructing Patriotism: Exploring Postmodernism and US Army Recruitment Amidst the Lack of a National Narrative
  2. Uniformed Perspectives: The Evolution of Cross-Dressing in the Military and Gender Norms
  3. Do My Leaders ‘Get’ Me?: Unpacking the Importance of Representation in the Military
  4. Harder Rights: An Approach to Espoused Values and Behavior Inconsistency

The point of contact for these courses is Dr. Morten Ender, Professor of Sociology and Co-Chair of the Diversity & Inclusion Studies Minor at West Point.

Dr. Ender has published on related topics, including a paper titled “Dinner and a Conversation: Transgender Integration at West Point and Beyond,” and “Inclusion in the U.S Military: A Force for Diversity.

These courses are a distraction from the Academy’s mission to produce leaders capable of winning wars.

The Pentagon suggested that the United States military entered 2024 with its smallest size and lowest qualification levels in nearly eight decades. This development raises significant concerns about national security and military readiness in an era of evolving global threats.

According to Daily Mail, the total number of active-duty personnel has dropped to levels not seen since the early 1940s, a period before the U.S. entered World War II.

The emerging challenges in military recruitment are becoming increasingly evident, as seen in this year’s significant shortfall of 41,000 personnel. This gap highlights the widening disconnect between the military establishment and the younger generations.

Recruiting has been hampered by the COVID-19 vaccine mandates as well as an increasingly woke military atmosphere where trans soldiers are give special privileges while Christian soldiers are persecuted, bases host drag shows, and leaders with a history of anti-white statements are hired.

Army Secretary Christine Wormuth claimed that ‘woke’ criticisms of the military hurt recruiting. Over the last three years, it has been widely reported that recruiting is way down across all branches of the U.S. military.

It’s fascinating that this official is claiming that woke criticisms are the problem, not the woke policies that have been put in place.

“Send them to fight Russia.”

I’ve said for almost fifty years we need an all gay combat battalion for three really good reasons. 1) We wouldn’t lose a whole generation. 2) You always fight harder for the one you love and if they’re in the fox hole together.... 3) The opposing force has no good outcome; either they beat a bunch of pansies or they lose to a bunch of pansies or they get captured so they might as well just go home.

The football players need a degree to. Can’t get a commission without one. That’s at least how it started.

And let us not forget: West Point just replaced the motto "Duty, Honor, Country" with "Army Values".

As in:

"Army Values can mean whatever we want it to mean. And if we want 'Army Values" to mean: 'deconstructing patriotism', encouraging cross dressing in the ranks, promoting transgenderism, promoting homosexuality, treating traditional marriage as a sham, viewing men as criminals, voting for the 'correct' candidate, and shooting whoever we tell you to shoot, then, if you value your life, your freedom, or your military career, you better adhere to and observe 'Army Values' before outdated values such as Constitutional Values or, most objectionably to the Army...God's Values."

We’re doomed. Come Lord Jesus!

How so? The federal government has always been our number one enemy. I'd rather take on an bunch of cross-dressers who are worried about breaking a nail than a real army anyday. You think the Chinese or Russians are afraid of our military? Not a chance. It's the millions of gun-toting rednecks they are really afraid of.

The whole point is to weaken the US military for takeover.

Diversity & Inclusion Studies Minor at West Point.

Should not exist anywhere, least of all a military academy.

Klinger was a work of fiction.

Within that fictional setting, the fictional character was trying to prove that he was insane and should therefore be discharged from the Army.

Can Civil War be far away now? How many US Soldiers, Airmen, Sailors and Marines will die because of this woke training? With war looming against a battle hardened foe we are looking at defeat on the battlefield. What was the worlds of that old Southern hymn? “Down with the eagle, up with the Cross?”

Well, depending who does the actual "taking over," this could end up being a good thing, no? Maybe time will tell that the sick Leftists were being too clever by half here.

This is ‘part’ of the takeover, even offering “courses” like these.

Nope.

If what I've seen is any indication, it will be many.

With war looming against a battle hardened foe we are looking at defeat on the battlefield.

The "foe" we need to prepare for are the Communist Chinese and/or UN forces who the federal government will let in to conquer the American Patriots. The Chinese will be the most formidable, and there are already 35,000 of them here. However, they aren't prepared for the resistance they will meet.

It's not because America has become totally gay, queer, trans this and and that. Faggots are a very small percentage of the population. It's because we've become Godless.! We've allowed ourselves to become infiltrated by Satan's demons and devils..

We know who those people are in DC. The evil ones are not hard to spot. They're the ones who say you can't have the Ten Commandments posted at YOUR school. The ones who say you can't have prayer on school grounds.. It's those who say "You must let boys use the same lockeroom with girls."

What we need to do is GET BACK TO THE CHURCH!! That where we'll find the solution, AND the courage to use it.!!

If your church isn't talking about this problem, YOUR IN THE WRONG CHURCH.!!!!

Definitely NOT the military I joined in 1966. We had indoctrination classes every year as a warning AGAINST homosexuality.

I can see it now. Soldiers in the future will be required to only give their name, rank, serial number, and the LGBTQIA+∞ friendliness scores from their last performance report.
