How can military officers get smacked with the woke fairy wand so easily?

“How can military officers get smacked with the woke fairy wand so easily?”

Our society is a patchwork of hierarchies. If you want to keep your job, you do what the guy above you tells you to. In the case of the woke insanity, there was, at the time, no place you could go to say your piece. If you did, you were declared a racist or sexist and your career was over. Try getting a job when you were fired for racism.

In the end, many senior officers play politics to get promoted.
