I still struggle to process the meaning of the Pentagon’s propaganda blitzkrieg against Tucker Carlson. Even if you think Carlson is wrong in his criticism of the woke military (see here for some of it), the fact that the Defense Department has reacted so aggressively is extraordinarily troubling. I would have been troubled by it had the DoD hit out at left-wing media critics like this. But to my knowledge, they never have. They reserved this kind of response for a conservative media figure who questioned the military’s new wokeness. This tells us something.
I’ve been hearing from a number of you since I first posted about it the other day. A pastor I know personally told me that one of his congregation is in a service academy, and sends him photographs of assignments and readings they are given. The young person asks the pastor for advice on how to navigate all this as a Christian. The pastor said he — the pastor — is a conservative, but the things that the new woke military is putting into the heads of our young people are shocking. Let me be clear: the pastor is not hearing about this second-hand; he’s seeing photos of the actual documents. I have asked him to share them with me so I can pass them on to you. I’m waiting to hear back.

After all, the military has snipers who can hit at a range of over a mile.
Why wouldn’t we take this military excursion into the fray seriously?
very seriously.
Throughout history leftists in militaries have killed millions
If a soldier does not know which bathroom to use, I don’t them to be carrying anything more dangerous than a box of Kleenex.
When do we start calling them the American Peoples Liberation Army?
Well, some make a distinction between disrespecting WOMEN who have chosen to serve their country from all the other ‘woke’. BS.
No one is going to get anything but grief and hatred from me (unless it’s just ignoring them) for saying that a woman can’t or shouldn’t serve in the military, including doing things that involve killing bad guys. Anyone against that can quite simply go to hell as far as I am concerned, and anything further they have to say on any subject whatsoever is going in the same rubbish pile as other stuff, both ‘woke’ and racist/sexist.
Just my .02.
The rank and file don’t support this. The leadership is contemptible. The are part of the anal-nasal chain. The can put their troops in danger because they are really incompetent when it comes to military matters. The are extremely competent when is come to kissing butt.

This is what our new military will be. The Chinese will be shaking in their boots as they laugh their @$$es off.
Afghanistan was not enough of a trial for the overall military for it to have that effect. It was simple and easy to not serve at the point of that spear, and there was an edict to tow the line or begone from the Commander in Chief. Their job was to make the wokeness work, not to make the military work.
The politicization of the military ought to scare the hell out of everyone.
The story about the rigged War Games in 2002 is reminiscent of the Japanese war gaming the Battle of Midway.
The officers representing the US forces stationed a carrier force to the North East of Midway and ambushed the Japanese force EXACTLY predicting what Nimitz would do.
Nagumo the Task force commander protested, and Yamamoto forced them to replay the scenario with the carriers starting from Pearl Harbor.
Rigged war-games are worse then useless.
This started many years ago when leadership was replaced with managers during the Clinton years and the tail-hook BS... Which also infiltrated American society with the sensitivity training, sexual harassment etc.
It’s just progressed more and more since then.
Makes you wonder if the Pentagon and the upper ranks are wigged out by Tucker Carlson, what are thinking about about posters on this site?
Nobody is saying this.
Nice straw woman you built there.
Great article. Thanks.
Our military will be soon be employed the way Myanmar is deploying theirs....gunning down innocent, unarmed civilians. And with all the wokeness infesting them, unarmed people are the only ones they’ll be competent to engage.
Those who want to advance at any cost know that vocally embracing the leftie causes will guarantee them a promising career under the lefties.
Dan Scavino has been tweeting that some clowns have gotten control of the military Twitter acct and I guess he’s intimating that they are trying to make the military look bad.
I have one question. Why would the United States Marine Corps need a Twitter page?
