DOD Woke Agenda

Go Woke and Go Up in Smoke?

If you’re looking for a single sign that the world’s going to Hell, my candidate would be the queering of the U.S. military

Are these the end-times? There’s been a lot of speculation along those lines in the last few years.

Of course, there are always reasons to believe that our time is up. But the last three or four years have provided more than the usual amount of grist for the mill.

It’s difficult to capture the exact sequence of events because everything seemed to happen all at once: the advent of woke culture, followed by rioting in major cities, accompanied by the tearing down of statues in public squares and the trashing of history in public schools, followed by a worldwide pandemic, followed by…well, just one damned thing after another—including drag queen story hours and satanic Christmas displays.

But if you’re looking for a single sign that the world’s going to Hell, my candidate would be the queering of the U.S. military. I’m not talking specifically about the gaying of the Army—although that’s a large part of the problem. I’m speaking about the strange new priorities that the military has chosen for itself.

One might think that defending our country and winning wars would be the chief priorities. But these seem to be lower-order priorities in today’s military.

Instead, the chief concerns are climate change, diversity, LGBTQ+ pride, white supremacy, and right-wing extremists. . . .

. . . And so on. But if you are a devout Christian soldier who believes that your faith prevents you from supporting the LGBTQ+ agenda, you’ll probably start counting the number of days left before your term of duty is up.

Likewise, if you’re a devout Christian who is thinking about signing up for the Army, you’ll think twice. You may decide that you’d rather not fight and die for values that run strongly counter to your own.

You can see where this is going. By deliberately appealing to one group, the military risks alienating another group. Indeed, it risks alienating just about everyone. How many blacks and liberals want to fight and die for a nation that, according to critical race theory, is built on slavery and white supremacism?

As I wrote two years ago:

The question is, who’s going to be left? Just how large a pool of potential recruits does the Army brass think is out there? And how many woke people really want to fill the gap and thereby risk their lives defending a country they have come to detest?
