“Civilization” is a spectrum. If you go below its lower end or above its higher one, it becomes barbarism. Are we there yet?

Good black doctors will hate how this turns out for them.

Gawd this is truly frightening. And what about when this penetrates into aviation? And other professions where competence should be the only standard. The Air Force Academy has already tried some diversity-centric training with some of the cadets there. Unsuccessfully I might add.

If you don’t have a lot of time for a book.. I can personally attest that the military has been doing this since the late 80s. After the second… we’ll we have to send a female.. came my way, I got out.
I do not want a school or promotion axed on any other than I deserve it more than the next person.
The left will tell you the hard truth.. the military is a successful socialist system in the US.
Work 20 years get paid for what a total of 60 or 70 years..

The usual pattern is that the river valleys or coastal areas become civilized and then decadent. When they become so self-indulgent, pleasure-oriented, lazy and cowardly, the barbarians sweep in from the wastelands — mountains, steppes, forests, deserts — and take over. Our plan has been to “export our decadence” so that other societies are so like us that they won’t attack us, because we aren’t likely to reform ourselves.

Who’s civilized? We think of civilization in terms of equality, humanity, kindness, mercy, and judge earlier ages harshly as barbaric and uncivilized. But those earlier ages didn’t think of civilization in terms of equality. They had their own ideas of justice and fairness, but didn’t believe in human equality, so they might think of us as not fully civilized. Similarly, they might or might not value mercy, but didn’t let it get in the way of their stricter idea of law and justice, so they would think of us as undisciplined and our society as unbalanced.
