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."

This social babble would be hilarious if the defense of the country wasn’t at stake. We will be facing deadly enemies unconstrained by the debilitating pressures of wokeism and its corrosive effects on morale and readiness. They will have a big edge over us. They will be ready to fight.

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

What the heck does that even mean?

Communist mind/thought control on a scale most here thought unimaginable a few years ago...

Now, as slaves, we have it simple:
Bow down!... Obey!... Snitch!...

Whatever happened to “Able-bodied seaman”? That used to be the criteria for manning our ships, shore stations and air stations.

Carter did some legit damage to the military

Clinton did some legit damage to the military

The person that occupied the White House before President Trump did some legit damage to the military.

No telling what Harris and Biden are going to do to it but it’ll make what the other three did look like child’s play

Agreed and that would be the large majority, if not all, of the Admirals and a sizable chunk of Captains.

Wouldn’t be many left. Which is probably a good thing.

Agreed, but we can’t do it with Romney, Snow, and their ilk.

Actually they’ve been doing this stuff for years every year it ratchets up no matter whether a Rat or a GOP administration is in office. If its GOP its ratchets up slower, if a RAT administration its faster. Now they obviously think they have the green light to turn it way up. Basically these are white male self-criticism sessions, if you’re a white male and you don’t play your role sufficiently well it reflects in your performance report.

I value seniority, but these guys are destroying it as fast
as they can.

It might be a good idea to bring back willing people who
mustered out under the idiotic leadership.
