What a *****d age we live in when what was satire a few years ago is now serious. In my mind, the most disturbing part is this woman is teaching future leasers in the US Army.

The more these people make fools of themselves the better I say.

No, the Air Force has "leasers." When you tell a service to "secure a building," I believe the Air Force is the one that takes out a 20-year lease with an option to buy.

Obama made sure our military was filled with SJWs and the old guard pushed aside (generals/admirals terminated).

Biden will ensure the job is finished. They are now “cleansing” the ranks of anyone who is loyal to the US Constitution.

Top leadership positions will be filled with even more radical SJWs loyal to their communist party leaders.

We saw how these military members undermined Trump at every turn. Now, they will undermine us as well, painting us as domestic terrorists and dangerous threats that must be eliminated.

Latching onto the silliness of their positions ignores the real threat....the seriousness of their hate for us.

No mention in the article about the "Chiefs". That name needs to be eliminated immediately and changed to the "Snowflakes".

Also, buccaneers helped England defeat the Spanish Armada and saved potentially thousands of lives.

Suggest that the Washington Redskins, Errrr Football Team change it’s name to the Deep Staters. They’re real life crooks, thieves, cutthroats and boatless pirates in DC. Why should the Tampa Bay Buccaneers get all the glory?

What’s fair is fair.

Why is it o.k. to glorify pirates, but not redskins? Vikings, and not Indians? Celtics and not - may I ask - redmen?

I’m gonna say here that pirates have been romanticized since movable type put books in to the hands of everyone.

Were the Washington Redskins romanticizing native Americans? I thought the woke crowd said it was racist.

What about the Carolina Panthers? Should PETA complain about some alleged thought crime regarding that name?

If she had written an essay on how blacks glorify gangsta thugs, she would have been cancelled.

Pirates were the original gangsta thugs.

Jamie L.H. Goodall, a staff historian at the U.S. Army Center of Military History, published her Washington Post op-ed on Friday ahead of Super Bowl LV, in which the Buccaneers faced off against the Kansas City Chiefs for the NFL championship.

‘While this celebration of piracy seems like innocent fun and pride in a local culture, there is danger in romanticizing ruthless cutthroats who created a crisis in world trade when they captured and plundered thousands of ships on Atlantic trade routes,’ Goodall wrote.

Her stupidity is troubling on several levels. One is that she is an “historian”, which makes her lack of knowledge of history make me question her credentials. The other is an apparent propensity to virtue signal over perhaps first checking facts. One only has to google the word “buccaneer” to discover they are not pirates.

I’m so glad they made a place for women in football. I’m sure Augusta National sleeps so much better for the fact they opened it up to women.

Estrogen is a virus, not an enzyme.
