Wouldn’t want the best and brightest there now would we?
What was called affirmative action was SOP for nearly fifty years at the service academies.
What an incredible piece of horse manure!
Stating diversity as an unsustainable rhetorical imperative does not allow it to substitute for merit. Social engineering that amalgamates LGBTQ, White Privilege, feminism, and Critical Race theory into the service academies means that Cultural Marxism replaces national security as the primary objective thereby crippling our ability to fight.
In our family eight men volunteered for service over three generation, but never again.
The liberals continually engaging in the soft racism of low expectations...
They should start by giving service members a very attractive pay hike. Then they would attract more candidates of all races, sexes, etc who are of higher quality.
Take that $80 billion for Ukraine and give it to the troops instead.
My employer has announce their plan to hire 25% female and minorities, they claim to be an EEOC employer but I say thats a lie.
It can’t be equal when you announce a quota. Our country is so screwed.
Blacks are 13% of U.S. population. And:
“According to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), a sector of the U.S. Department of Education, 84 percent of Black students lack proficiency in mathematics and 85 percent of Black students lack proficiency in reading skills.”
Where are the competent black people going to come from to take all the jobs everyone seems to be trying to give them? That’s a rhetorical question. The math doesn’t work. Look at the blacks running private and government institutions; one can’t write her own doctoral dissertation, a Supreme Court Justice doesn’t know what a woman is, a district attorney hiring her married boyfriend as a special prosecutor, etc. etc. Imagine having to work for the women in post #8. I would bet everything I own there are a kabillion white males with better qualifications than every one of them who did not get an appointment to a service academy. We’re so screwed.
As a USAFA grad, I am frequently disgusted by what the institution has become. The things that slip out in the media regarding the service academies are barely the tip of the iceberg with the diversity nonsense that is going on there.
DEI is a cancer, dont study just show up

West Point defends racism based on race. Quotas > Affirmative Action > DEI > RACISM....all the same thing. Dots or spots - a leopard is still a leopard.
Pure racism by our military academies. No wonder our military is in a shithole.
“diverse Army officer corps is a national-security imperative”
That means that black people are so stupid and incompetent that it is totally impossible to find any properly qualified to admit to West Point.
That is what racism looks like, folks.
