Apparantly Mattis plays the part of a tough guy for TV but in reality is very much a part of the trendy swamp.
Yes. When Mattis is supporting irrational, dysfunctional, vile behaviors in the military, he is trying to destroy it.
As Machiavelli knew, and Mattis does too—but must be evil—that promoting evil and dysfunction and vice in a military will destroy the unity and virtue of man and collapse it....into a Sodom and Gomorrah.
It is essential particularly to promote virtue inside the military, a place of incredible power. (Machiavelli).
Only virtue is promoted in any Justice system. To promote vice is to destroy the civilization. We have a Vice System and it needs to be reformed and returned to the Constitution where only Virtue is allowed to be promoted in any rule or regulation-—esp. in the military.
