How many men will die for political correctness?
How many have died because of political correctness?
We can’t measure the vast effects this has on the eroding of standards, but ultimately it may lose wars for us.
A problem that I was telling people about since it first started, is that they will eventually completely change the military, already a perceptive person can see the military drifting into just another federal job, with daycare and female work place issues, and quality of life issues becoming more important than the gear and war fighting equipment.
In 20 or 30 years with females at 50% and female generals and admirals, more and more of the budget fights will be over workplace issues and improved daily life stuff that civilians obsess over, and pay and benefits, and the risk of foreign policy decisions and how they will affect those quality of life issues for the federal employees of the military, who might even become unionized at some point.
The military used to be all male, with drinking and smoking and fighting, hard living, hard working, hard training, and bad food, and low pay, and a warrior’s ethic and standards.
Some improvements to those areas were called for, but it should have remained a bastion of maleness, and male attitudes, and male concerns, bayonets and better rifles and more training, instead of gynecologists and sexism classes, and automatic transmissions, and lowered standards.
