Well, West Point had a good run, didn’t it?
Once a beacon of prestige and elite training, this institution produced some of America’s most outstanding leaders.
But times have changed.
Today, West Point is just another woke joke, churning out young Marxists with contempt for the very nation they’re supposedly preparing to defend.
West Point has reached the point of no return, particularly after the exposure of their latest “woke” agenda.
Believe it or not, but they’re now offering degrees in “Equity and Diversity.”
And no, unfortunately, this isn’t a joke.
Here’s the information about the woke course from West Point’s own website:
Diversity & Inclusion Studies Minor
Diversity and Inclusion Studies (DISM) is an interdisciplinary minor administered by the Department of Behavioral Sciences & Leadership that consists of humanities and social science courses. America is a multicultural polity and demands knowledgeable and pragmatic thinkers who understand the range of human experiences.
The Diversity and Inclusion Studies Minor (DISM) exposes cadets to varied perspectives & methodologies for understanding and studying the humanities.
By carefully drawing from existing courses in multiple departments, the DISM complements and enhances the core curriculum, academic majors, and several West Point Centers and committees. The DISM helps fulfill the Superintendent’s and Dean’s vision for diversity and inclusion at West Point.
Moreover, the DISM at West Point offers cadets a framework for critically and creatively thinking about the broader impact of diversity and inclusion at the individual, organizational, societal, and/or global levels. It also provides our cadets opportunities to pursue diversity and inclusion in intra-, multi- and inter-disciplinary ways.

What a travesty, and how embarrassing for West Point.
The left has successfully transformed many of our nation’s college students into pint-sized Marxists, and now they’re seeking to steer our military officers down the same ideological path. . . . (read more on Revolver News)
General Douglas MacArthur 1962 speech to West Point cadets:
” . . . . And through all this welter of change and development, your mission remains fixed, determined, inviolable – it is to win our wars.
Everything else in your professional career is but corollary to this vital dedication.
All other public purposes, all other public projects, all other public needs, great or small, will find others for their accomplishment.
But you are the ones who are trained to fight: yours is the profession of arms – the will to win, the sure knowledge that in war there is no substitute for victory.
That if you lose, the nation will be destroyed; that the very obsession of your public service must be Duty – Honor – Country.
Others will debate the controversial issues, national and international, which divide men’s minds; but serene, calm, aloof, you stand as the nation’s war guardian, as its lifeguard from the raging tides of international conflict, as its gladiator in the arena of battle.
For a century and a half you have defended, guarded, and protected its hallowed traditions of liberty and freedom, of right and justice.
Let civilian voices argue the merits or demerits of our processes of government; whether our strength is being sapped by deficit financing, indulged in too long, by federal paternalism grown too mighty, by power groups grown too arrogant, by politics grown too corrupt, by crime grown too rampant, by morals grown too low, by taxes grown too high, by extremists grown too violent; whether our personal liberties are as thorough and complete as they should be.
These great national problems are not for your professional participation or military solution.
Your guidepost stands out like a ten-fold beacon in the night – Duty – Honor – Country.
You are the leaven which binds together the entire fabric of our national system of defense.
From your ranks come-the great captains who hold the nation’s destiny in their hands the moment the war tocsin sounds.
The Long Gray Line has never failed us.
Were you to do so, a million ghosts in olive drab, in brown khaki, in blue and gray, would rise from their white crosses thundering those magic words – Duty – Honor – Country. . . . ”
I’m speechless. All I can say is: Sad. Very sad. RIP Duty – Honor – Country.
