Church of Wokeness in the U.S. Military

Wokeness warriors take over the Pentagon - As perhaps the only conservative participant on the Pentagon’s newly formed Countering Extremism Working Group, I can confirm the Pentagon's full embrace of "wokeism." ..........the American government now monitors social media activity in order to ensure service members don’t post, share, or like something "extreme." If this sounds eerily familiar, it’s because China has been doing it for years. - Mike Berry

I've been off for about a week now.  Even a newsie like me can only stand so much and so much is flooding in daily I'm having trouble keeping up with it.  One insane crisis after another, and so insane the whole thing boggles the mind.   But one thing is clear.  Any sane person who follows world events can't help but conclude America is in crisis.  I will be posting a series of my own commentaries dealing with the destruction of America's institutions by the nation's Marxists, the Democrat party.

This fraudulent President has filled his administration with insane leftists who are going to do everything they can to destroy the American culture, the American identity, the American economy and destroy what's left of the Constitution, by destroying the very foundational institutions that make a nation. 

Let's start with the military and Critical Race Theory.

Political Cartoons by Gary Varvel\

On June 25, 2021 Kurt Schlichter, who could stand some serious oversight on acceptable verbiage, posted this piece,  Military Generals Aren't Conservatives, They're Socialists saying:

We got drag queen shows at Air Force bases. Not just any Air Force base. No, it's Nellis Air Force Base, home of the fighter pilot training school where you're supposed to forge on the anvil of combat training the world's greatest fighting force. They had a bunch of dudes dressed like chicks walking around, and this was an official sponsored event, and it's like, what the hell is going on? A drag show, folks. A drag show.  Let's face it; our military is in a really bad way. It's a disaster on every level.

"The biggest danger, the biggest threat to America is climate change.".............The weather. Okay, I don't know about you guys, but there's the Red Chinese. And now, it's even worse because the other half is going to say, "Well, you know what it is? Extremists, white supremacists!"

 Moreover, folks, I'm terrified. I'm terrified that they're going to get people killed because what they're doing, between the drag shows and the anti-racist agenda and the "let's hunt the mysterious extremists taking selfies," is demonstrating that they are an unserious military and this is a very, very, serious time.
 
The Ohio Star ran a piece by Eric Lendrum entitled,  Critical Race Theory Presented Before Board of America’s Oldest Military Academy on June 23, 2021 saying:

The book promoted by Underwood, “White Fragility,” includes numerous outright racist stereotypes and false declarations about White people. Among other things, DiAngelo claims that “common White responses [to Critical Race Theory] include anger, withdrawal, emotional incapacitation, guilt, argumentation, and cognitive dissonance.” DiAngelo also claims that “White identity is inherently racist. White people do not exist outside of the system of White supremacy.”

So, our future military leaders are encouraged to accept the idea white people are weak minded, emotionally challenged, filled with white guilt and angry with white rage, making them all "inherently racists" and any arguments against Critical Race Theory, or Intersectionality (which is so loony I will have to address in another post) is evidence they're guilty of being racists and white supremacists.  The extremists Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin wants to root out.

So, how well is this being received by the men on the ground, not the brass, the grunts who actually are putting their lives on hold with their service and dedication and even their lives on the line.  How well does being told their efforts are supporting a nation filled with racists who are guilty of ____________ just fill in the blank because tomorrow there will be more added to the list of outrages the left wishes to purge from America.   

 
As conflict over Pentagon wokeness intensifies between uniformed and civilian adversaries, dissenters within the military have taken to social media aiming to win hearts and minds for the anti-woke faction.  "We're worried about teaching racism and creating racists within the military rather than making lethal soldiers," wrote one soldier on social media. "Way to go Woke."  "Bruh, they really pushing this shi- from the top brass now," wrote another.

While teaching Critical Race Theory, with it's roots deeply buried in Marxism, when Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley was questioned by Congress Austin said:

"We don't embrace critical race theory," "And I think that's a spurious conversation. We are focused on extremist behaviors and not ideology, not people's thoughts, not people's political orientation. Behaviors is what we are focused on." 

So, after saying they don't embrace CRT General Milley went on to defend teaching it with this logical fallacy saying:

"I've read Mao Zedong," "I've read Karl Marx. I've read Lenin. That doesn't make me a communist. So, what is wrong with understanding, having some situational understanding about the country for which we are here to defend?"..... "I personally find it offensive that we are accusing the United States military, our general officers, our commissioned and commissioned officers of being, quote, 'woke' or something else because we're studying some theories that was out there."

Trump Slams “Woke” General’s Defense Of Critical Race Theory; ‘It Was Pathetic’  - “They didn’t talk that way or I would’ve gotten rid of them in two minutes.” 

These losers would do and say whatever it takes to keep their job.  In short you can't help but conclude they're lying.  They know they're lying.  They know we know they're lying, and I swear, these guys must have read community organizer (hhmmmm, community organizer, where have we heard that term before?) Saul Alinsky's book Rules for Radicals also.  Their responses are right out of his handbook on how to undermine traditional thought.  They're guilty of what Paul O’Brien calls "felony pretending".  

First of all, for those who actually read that twattle spewed out by Marx and the rest, that might be worthwhile to show just how flawed leftists really are, but that brings us to some logical questions. 

  • Were they forced to read it?  
  • Were they indoctrinated in the theories of these stunted misfits by a trained cadre of Marxists?  

Apparently the answer is no to both, and clearly they did that as a choice.  No one was forcing it on them.  And if they really did read that insanity, and understood what was being said, what in the world would encourage them to force feed this stuff to the rank and file? 

This isn't  a choice for them, it's indoctrination, and they have to know that, and it appears the men know that.  Anyone who has ever served recognizes this for what it is.  Indoctrination!  

We now have a military that can't offer chiropractic treatment for soldiers injured in training, but can afford to offer transgender surgeries to people with serious emotional challenges.  

Political Cartoons by Pat Cross

I despised the officers when I was in the service.  And now over fifty years later, I still despise the officers, and these misfits are a clear example of why they should be despised.  

One of the things we need to really understand.  The two groups touted as leaders in the nation are military officers and people with PhD's.  Give them a task,  define the parameters for that task, and they will perform well, since both are well trained and intelligent.  But neither of them, as a group, are real leaders.  Both of these groups come from a cultural paradigm of going along to get along.   

Show me a junior officer who tells his superiors they're wrong, and worse yet proves it, and I will show you a career junior officer.  

Show me a PhD candidate who tells the PhD's interviewing him during his oral dissertation that all their theories are wrong, and proves it,  and I will show you a career PhD candidate with a career Masters degree. 

It's a rare career officer or academic who has what it takes to be the rock in the current because they suffer for it, and let's face it, heterodoxy isn't for the faint of heart. 

Obama obliterated those ranking officers who stood for traditional values and replaced them with leftist misfits.  The stars on their shoulders, medals on their chests, and accomplishments are nothing more than a distraction to the real issues.  

Academia was infested long ago and as time went by government grant money became the holy grail of science and academia, not truth.  

The communist manifesto of the Long March Though the Institutions is now complete.
