Earlier this week the Air Force promulgated an official Memorandum that elevates the LGBTQ+ “community” as paragons of military virtue, absolutely reeks of Marxist language, and attempts to strong arm Air Force base commanders into promoting the military’s current DEI dogma.
Matt Lohmeier has the scoop. You might remember Matt, a former Space Force Lieutenant Colonel squadron commander who was fired, forced to resign his Air Force commission, and subjected to an Inspector General investigation by the Pentagon after publishing his bestselling book, Irresistible Revolution: Marxism’s Goal of Conquest & the Unmaking of the American Military, which tore the lid off the military’s obsession with racist and radical “woke” ideologies.
THERE IS AN ONGOING WAR being waged by domestic enemies against the United States military that is far more destructive than any threat we are facing from our foreign adversaries!Military senior leaders are ceaselessly waging a politically and culturally subversive campaign against our men and women in uniform. There is no doubt that men and women of character will continue to lose their motivation to serve and will leave the service. And there is no end in sight to our recruiting troubles.
There’s lots more, but you get the idea. Anyway, Matt Lohmeier continues:
Senior leaders and decisionmakers who pretend to care about solving our recruiting and retention problems without first abandoning this activist agenda are only fooling themselves.The memorandum below, which was just signed on 13 May 2024, admonishes servicemembers to celebrate and honor the lifestyle and contributions of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgenders and queers. You may think this is nothing new, but the energy and directness of the agenda is only growing stronger each month, and the activists who wage the campaign are more brazen than ever. False spirits who thrive on division and destruction seem to animate our every move.
The memorandum honors “the strength” and “progress” that “activists” have brought to the force. The memorandum “empowers commanders” to “organize” activities for their bases. It is a revolutionary campaign that no longer needs to hide its aims. It employs all of the right revolutionary language. It is Marxist-rooted DEI at its best. It is evil.
If you are in uniform, now is the time for you to speak up against this agenda as if the life of your country depends on it, because it does. If you are a military leader and you understand firsthand the deleterious influence of this leftist activism perpetrated by our Defense Department, then speak up now or accept that you are a damned coward and accomplice.Feigned kindness in the face of evil is only foolishness. Tolerance of this revolutionary spirit at this critical hour is little short of treasonous. Cowardice is the opposite of faith and love.
The Memo is signed by Marianne P. Malizia, pictured in this post’s Featured Image, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Force Resilience and Chief Diversity Officer. Incidentally, her bio makes for some interesting reading, especially for me since she graduated from West Point in 1981, the same year I graduated from the Naval Academy:
Below find some other commentary on DEI, recruiting, and the military, including a great, very short video of Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-Fl) grilling the head honcho at the Aur Force Academy about “colorblindness” and Dr, Martin Luther King:
It really is sad, and infuriating. If you had told me when I was on active duty that this would EVER happen to the military I would not have believed you.
