In the Soviet Army, each company had “political enlightenment dayrooms” (ie indoctrination rooms) which contained all types of Marxist/Communist political literature, newspapers and magazines, such as The Red Star, Pravda, Iszvestiya, Soviet Warrior and Ogonek. This room also contained a small library of selected Communist political literature. The library books were taken to the field whenever the unit went on maneuvers.
In February 2021, after the Biden administration began inserting Marxist-based critical race theory (which morphed into the weaponized words “Diversity, Equity & Inclusion”) into all branches of the State, the Air Force Academy created a “Diversity and Inclusion Reading Room” in the McDermott Library. Funded in part by the military insurance provider, USAA.
A safe space for America’s future warriors to learn about people’s personal sex lives and questioning their sexual identity. Obvious things to know when they face battle with China, Russia, Iran, etc. You could be forgiven thinking this was a typical left-leaning college instead of the nation’s premier institution for developing Air and Space Force military leaders.
Here are photos of the library from this month (click on photo to enlarge):
Maybe veterans need a new insurance company?:
Is this a Kindergarten class or a premiere military academy for warfighters?
We wonder if the PRC military academy cadets or soldiers have signs in their buildings that say #LoveWins?
The below poster says, “The readings in this area will expand and elevate your understanding of other people, cultures, and nations, with a special attention to questions of race, gender, class, and sexuality. As an officer-citizen you will want to educate yourself about the diversity that is central to and necessary for a military serving a democratic nation.”
Actually a Constitutional Republic nation, E Pluribus Unum instead of the divisive division which divides like a divorce: diversity. [The Latin root “div” means “separate”]
What does DIVersity at USAFA mean to you? A unified, cohesive team?
Woke indoctrination supported by USAA , no surprise!
GO WOKE, GO BROKE!
“Everything WOKE turns to SHIT”
That says it all! Good luck taking Diversity and Climate Change into the Fox Holes !!
In 1966 I was a member of the first Air Force OTS class to have female cadets. Between uniforms and green fatigues that wouldn’t fit, we all got along great. There were no special safe spaces, no separate parade fields, tracks or classrooms, no gender pronouns and no diversity library. There certainly was no privilege because we all ended up scrubbing toilets with a toothbrush if we failed inspection. And we graduated and went on to war. Many did not return home. One classmate became an Olympic champion and others became true warriors and combat heroes. But what we all shared and treasured was becoming officers in our nation’s Air Force. Today it seems that military service is all about self, culture and ethnicity when “drag queens” and “influencers” are celebrated on military bases while actual warriors are dismissed as privileged or nationalist.
Is it any wonder then that there is a recruiting crisis today in all services and that morale is at historic lows? It is time for some serious introspection into Officer leadership training priorities as they relate to readiness and mission accomplishment…
I sent a copy of this to USAA CEO – and got a phone call from his assistant 24 hours later. Some of my military friends who also posted this got similar calls. All were polite and professional, but did get an “equity” statement read to them.
