Biden administration energy hire called for ‘queering nuclear weapons,’ claimed discrimination ‘undermines’ security
New York Post ^ | 8/22/24 | Emily Crane

A fresh hire within President Biden’s Department of Energy previously wrote an op-ed about “queering nuclear weapons” — in which she argued that “queer theory” was crucial to US nuclear policy.

Sneha Nair co-authored the article just months before she was hired in February as a special assistant at the DOE’s nuclear security wing, the National Nuclear Security Administration, noted Fox News, which first reported on it.

In the wide-ranging piece, Nair argued that queer theory could “help change how nuclear practitioners, experts, and the public think about nuclear weapons” as she touched on the sprawling diversity, equity and inclusion ideology.

“Queering” anything is probably the dumbest thing you could do. They use the word and try to normalize it. Being a queer is not a good thing. It never has been a good thing. Keep that **** to yourself.

“The queer lens prioritizes the rights and well-being of people over the abstract idea of national security, and it challenges the mainstream understanding of nuclear weapons — questioning whether they truly deter nuclear war, stabilize geopolitics, and reduce the likelihood of conventional war,” she wrote.

So if you try to take this nonsense seriously, she is just dressing up old ideas from the 1980s disarmament movement - that a focus on individual people rather than a national security policy (which impliedly is not rational or connected to the wellbeing of people), will show that nuclear deterrence doesn't work and thus, nuclear weapons need to be scrapped. Its an old argument. Adding "queer lens" to it is equal parts bizarre, laughable and trendy.

Suicidal gibberish: the whole reason homosexuals were denied security clearances was because of their mental instability.

Nothing has changed.

We began to destroy the moral social fabric of our country in the 1960s when the news, TV and movie media proclaimed the PERVERTS as normal and demanded we accept their perversion as “normal”.

Not a joke. DEI policies will be used to promote woke commie traitors and eliminate white patriots. Then the commies will have full control over our nuclear deterrent forces and policy. A famous line from the movie War Games, “I hope they don’t make me eat fish eggs.”
