REVEALED: US Navy forces sailors to commit to 'all lived experiences and intersectional identities'
The Post Millennial ^ | February 13, 2021 | Libby Emmons

Posted on 02/15/2021 11:12:11 AM PST by Mount Athos

The pledge reads: "As a key member of Task Force One Navy I will invest the time, attention and empathy required to analyze and evaluate Navywide issues related to racism, sexism, ableism and other structural and interpersonal biases.

"I pledge to be actively inclusive in the public and private spheres where I live and work, and proactively encourage others to do the same.

"I pledge to advocate for and acknowledge all lived experiences and intersectional identities of every Sailor in the Navy.

They also state that "In our Navy, like society, I&D [inclusion and diversity] must never become an afterthought."

War fighting skills are the last thoughts of the military brass. And this didn’t just pop up in the last few weeks, while Trump put a lot of money into the military, he did little to get the rot and decay out of the officer corps.

Intersectional identity? Is that somebody who identifies as a road junction?

“In our Navy, like society, I&D [inclusion and diversity] must never become an afterthought.”

I have never had even a remote pang of guilt over the fact that “inclusion and diversity” have never been a consideration in my endeavors. “Sorry, white guy. I’d love to hire you, but government says I have to hire a black.”

It’s how insane people talk and these insane people are dictating policy because a bunch of cowards won’t tell them to go to hell.

Are ALL in the Navy pledging this or is the Navy being racist, sexist... and singling out certain groups?

I remember my Navy days. I know that we were barbarians and baby killers but as bad as we were we were all on one team and that was the most important thing. We all were brothers.

I thought it was the British colonial navy that was characterized by rum, sodomy and the lash.

Instead of surrendering boats to Iran and running ships into merchant traffic, the US Navy needs to spend more time on SEAMANSHIP and WARRIOR ETHOS, than this crap.

The Battle of Samar was not won by diversity and inclusivity.

"I pledge to be actively inclusive in the public and private spheres where I live and work, and proactively encourage others to do the same."

No one - not even the Sec'y of the Navy - is telling me with whom I must associate in my private life.

Regards,

Is Admiral Bull Halsey still on active duty? If so, I’d sure hate to be the one who has to tell him about this.
