. . ."Remember: The heart of “intersectionality” is learning about “oppressive institutions (racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, xenophobia, classism, etc.)” Where do you think heterosexual White males fit in that paradigm? Of course, they are seen as the enemies, the oppressors, and the ones who must be outed. Remember that “ableism” is discrimination in favor of able-bodied people. Military institutions must produce the toughest, most capable and strongest people – in order to win in combat. The entire premise of intersectionality is madness when applied to a military institution.
"The identity politics that come from intersectionality are designed to separate people into different social groups with different ratings of privilege and grievance. Military units must be one team – in complete unity – or Americans die and America fails.
"Finally, this proposed Navy pledge is insane because of the signals it sends to our potential enemies.". . .
The Meaning of the Woke Military - The American Mind "When official Department of Defense spokesmen attacked Tucker Carlson—who criticized the military’s integration of diversity-centered staffing mandates—they exposed a crucial gap between what Americans believe their military to be and the true purpose of our trillion-dollar war machine. What is being interpreted as an escalation in the culture wars is actually about how our regime perceives power itself.
"The primary purpose of the U.S. military is to protect the global economic status quo, sometimes known as the “neoliberal order” or “the Washington Consensus.” General Officers and Senior Enlisted men responding to Carlson’s remarks about women in combat did so in their official capacity as representatives of the United States Department of Defense, in uniform, using official Twitter accounts without standard disclaimers. While they insisted they were simply “defending their soldiers” from unjust criticism, this superficial claim fails to capture the truth about the unfolding dynamic.
"The debate that is playing out right now about sex, gender, and the military is happening only because we never, as a country, actually had it.". . .
