US Military’s SJW-Driven Abandonment of Warfighting

It gives me no pleasure to say that I no longer recommend that young people join the military, and I’m not alone. The non-Blue Falcon veteran community is in full revolt against the conscious decision to decline embraced by our current military leadership. After failing to win a war in the last 20 years – and don’t say Syria, because the second President * woke up in the Oval Office wondering how he got there, more of our troops were heading back into the hellscape for reasons no one has bothered to articulate – the military has decided to target an easier enemy, i.e., other Americans.

See, the problem with me and the other vets who are disgusted by the brass’s choice to focus on SJW priorities instead of, you know, successfully deterring or defeating America’s enemies, is that we actually listened to what we were taught when we were coming up. Most of us were trained by the heroes who put the shattered American military together after the Democrat war in Vietnam broke it. We learned about leadership, about putting mission first but taking care of people always, and about objectives and how to attain them.
So, count us out from complicity with the degeneration of our proud institution into a giant gender studies struggle session. And that’s a big deal. Do you know where the military gets a huge chunk on its recruits? Legacies. These are young troops who want to be like their father or grandfather or big brother or neighbor or other role model. I was the third-generation commissioned officer in my family, on both sides. Guess what? Right now, if one of my kids goes in, it’s against my advice. And again, I am not alone. I hear this over and over and over from other vets. And it makes me furious.

And now, though we have not won a war in two decades, our military has plenty of time to stop training and focus on purging the ranks of people who like the politicians the current administration opposes. I eagerly await the introduction to the new 69D MOS – political officer. A zampolit for every battalion – hell, why not every company?





I cherish my service, but all my USMC stuff is hidden at my office so my kids don't get any stupid ideas. Things were getting silly 20 years ago, I can't imagine what its like today. I'd prob be in the brig.

All empires fall, and the deaths of most are caused by internal strife.

The American Empire's time has come.

I’m a 4th generation vet. I told my two boys very early that they should not follow in their father’s footsteps but find other ways to serve.

Elections have consequences. It would seem different if the left didn't openly say how they were wanting to destroy the country, but they do, and they get voted into power anyway. I had no idea OMB was that strong.

The military only learns painful lessons. So it will likely be some form of inability to succeed in a mission.

Unfortunately, this is what happens when women are placed in positions of command over warfighting men.

Ex: Laura Richardson, Diana Holland, the two female "Rangers" who lead infantry platoons.

It's a joke. Glad I got out when I did. The mandatory "muh feelings" training was beginning to get out of control.

But that's not really self correcting. That's just the consequences of certain choices becoming manifest.

Power transfers may have consequences, but I’m not sure “elections” are of any consequence anymore.

I have no doubt sooner rather than later we will see political commissars at the battalion level. I’m sure they’ll be given a title like “diversity & inclusion officer” or something similar.

Right. These changes have been occurring for around 30 years or so now, through multiple administrations (D and R).

We abandoned "warfighting" roughly January 20, 1993.

I know. I was there.

Well, the Department of Defense already has an Office for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.

I’m so glad my time in the army was late 80s to the early 90s instead of today.

We’ll slowly creep towards a military full of kids who just want the free college or kids who just had no other option. There seems to be fewer and fewer who do it because they want to purely serve.

This is pretty much BS, we won the wars, we just failed at the occupation(which we shouldnt have been doing in the first place)

This is the long game for Russia with the US.

Good God, man. Damnit.

I remember the chill down my spine when I stood where the nose of Flight 77 hit the Pentagon. I knew my desire to serve was rooted in good. I was surrounded by like-minded individuals who wanted to destroy Islamic extremists and other enemies to the American Way of Life. Generals with Combat Infantry Badges, Special Forces and Ranger tabs everywhere. Men who fought to win because they knew what was at stake. Combat Veterans.

Now you have leaders who have never even seen a deployment, much more actual combat. It's unreal.

Females in support units like aviation and shite get deployment orders and immediately get pregnant to get out of them. Tired of this shite.

I wish that there would be national movement from both sides that would gain steam and only support/elect gubernatorial candidates that support and Convention of State.

The national government needs to be reigned in....notice I did not use the term Federal....there is a difference and we have not had a Federal government in a long time.
