After bending the knee to far-left “woke” ideology (pro-LGBTQIA+/multi-gender affirmation/pronoun insanity/CRT training/unconstitutional mandates for experimental vaccines), the US Military is forced to take a hacksaw to the standards that are used to find and train new recruits as the Armed Forces struggle through what some officials are calling the “most challenging recruiting year ever.”
Gateway Pundit In addition to lowering almost every single physical qualification for new recruits to pass their initial training, the US Army has now dropped its requirement that recruits must have a high school diploma or a G.E.D. degree in a desperate effort to attract new blood into the ranks.
From Military.com: “The Army and its sister services have scrambled this year, offering increasingly generous benefits and policy tweaks in an effort to improve recruiting numbers. The Army has hit 40% of its recruiting goals this year, with the struggle to fill the ranks seemingly so grim the Defense Department reduced its planned total force size because prior recruiting goals were out of reach.”
As the US military brass throws standards out the window in the name of wokeness, is it any wonder that Americans are not clamoring to join the ranks? Military preparedness now means having proper training on building a safe space for gender-sensitive ideologues, and, of course, always using the proper pronouns.
Just take a look at the US Navy’s latest training video for its Sailors… Sadly, this is not a joke, and, with Biden as the ‘Commander in Chief,’ it’s happening across every branch of the Armed Forces. Remember, this is an official US Navy training video, which, according to the military branch, was meant to teach sailors “the importance of using correct pronouns as well as polite etiquette when you may not be sure of someone’s pronouns.”
The video highlights the radical shift in military preparedness and standards that have occurred as of late. Instead of training soldiers to fight, and, more importantly, come home alive, US military leaders are focused on creating a more inclusive, sensitive environment – as the Navy video clarifies, a literal “safe space.” It’s a woke joke.
Unfortunately, this crippling agenda is pervading the entire US military system, with gender affirmation and DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) programs popping up in all six branches under Biden’s fraudulent leadership.
Meanwhile, our adversaries continue to capitalize on this regime’s miserable failings and planned destruction of the US. Add in the fact that the vaccine mandates purged a large number of our best military members, and things are looking even worse.
In order to be eligible for service, new recruits will simply have to score a 50 on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test and be of eligible age (18 or older), the US Army explainedin an announcement on Thursday. Officials for the service blamed a ‘lack of ability and desire’ among young Americans for the recruiting struggles throughout every branch of the military.
As of now, the Army has reached just 40% of its recruitment goal for the fiscal year ending in October. This is on par with the rest of the six branches, which are all projected to fall short of their recruiting goals in 2022.
With US Army recruiting videos like this one, is it any surprise that our enemies are laughing at us?
According to one Military official who spoke with NBC, the situation has reached “crisis” levels, especially in the wake of Covid-19. From NBC: “This recruiting crisis is like a slow-moving wave coming at us. As the military has gotten smaller and the public have gotten less and less familiar with those in uniform, it has grown. And COVID accelerated it.”
In addition to the relaxed educational requirements, the Army has also removed restrictions on the placement, size, and number of tattoos that are allowed, as well as offered enhanced benefits and perks for new recruits in an effort to drum up interest. But, little has worked so far.
Unbelievably, the struggle to find new recruits is so bad that previous recruiting goals had been revised downward going into this year, and yet, the Army is still a full 60% away from its 2022 goal with just 3 months to go.
Long gone are the days of responsibility and standards that made our military the greatest force ever to grace the earth. Now, you don’t even need a basic education – you just need to pledge your allegiance to the woke ideology.
If you want to become a deep state spook, even better. The US Army PSYWAR division will train you how to “manipulate” fellow Americans and the people of the world from the shadows – as their recruitment video makes clear: “Everything [they] touch is a weapon.”
Unfortunately, the US Military – under the corrupt leadership of Joe Biden and the America-hating swamp – is swiftly becoming a serious problem, if not a serious threat to the American people who its members are sworn to protect. As the pool of people interested in serving their country continues to dwindle, the Armed Forces are looking to bring in previously-unqualified recruits who will be more willing to comply with the arbitrary demands (like Covid vaccine mandates) and woke standards of the US military.
In other words, the military is going through a ‘forced reset’ and the Biden Regime is looking to clear the field of all potential dissenters. What happens when they finish the job? “Like Stalin’s purge of the Red Army in the late 1930s, Barack Obama and Joe Biden have been grooming the U.S. military into a politically reliable instrument of tyranny.”
What’s more, Senate Republicans are questioning the United States’ top military official over what they claim is a “woke” military agenda. Twelve Republicans on the Senate Armed Services Committee sent a letter to Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Mark Milley, arguing that the military is prioritizing adapting to climate change and fighting domestic extremism instead of maintaining a prepared force.

The armed forces that are generally now being recruited and trained will not fight, let alone win. Is this frighteneing? Absolutely,.! Serious adversaries are encircling us all around the world. They have the will to fight. They have startegic objectives. They will deploy to kill in order to achieve them. What they don’t care about is their pronouns.

The U.S. military must be weakened to be indoctrinated to be controlled to do the bidding of the dems/marxists/globalists. That bidding is for the subjugation of the American populace at some point. Joe is just the Puppet in Chief.

China Launches Warship, U.S. Navy Launches New Pronoun Video
BY JOSHUA ARNOLD/WASHINGTON STAND JUNE 24, 2022Share this article: Share Tweet Email Share Print
Do you have four minutes of your life to throw away? Do you have spare brain cells you want to kill off? Then watch this video, produced by the U.S. Navy — which means, produced by American taxpayers — on “proper” — that is, politically correct — gender pronouns.
“What is a pronoun?” these grown-ups ask seriously. What is this, a graduate level English seminar? But unlearn everything you’ve known since you first learned to talk, because everything you know about language is wrong, or something. And you have to believe them, because they’re wearing rainbow shirts.
Believe them at your peril, because their definition doesn’t even make sense. “A pronoun is how we identify ourselves, apart from our name, and it’s also how people refer to us in conversation,” says the nice lady. First, that’s not a definition; that statement answers the question, “How do we use a pronoun?” not, “What is a pronoun?” But I really don’t expect proper use of the pronoun “what” from inside that rainbow-colored, mental pea soup.
Second, her “definition” of pronoun contains five pronouns (we, ourselves, our, it, and us), indicating she understands that her audience already knows the answer. It also indicates she understands that pronouns are not arbitrary place holders, but that the correct pronoun is determined by the number, gender, and case of the noun it replaces, and that noun’s position in the sentence.
Third, for everyone who has effortlessly incorporated pronouns into his or her speech without contemplating its definition since grade school (in other words, normal people), a pronoun is a word used in place of a noun, not platform for self-expression.
According to this video — again, produced by a branch of the U.S. military — the way to create “a safe space for everybody” is not by projecting strength, nor by eliminating all the bad guys. It’s through using “inclusive language” (here they illustrate not with pronouns, because that would manifest the absurdity, but with gender-neutral nouns).
They proceed to discuss how “we can show that we’re allies” — but it’s not by conducting joint naval drills with Estonia or South Korea. No, according to the U.S. Navy, we show we’re allies by including our pronouns in our emails, or advertising them when we introduce ourselves in a conversation.
The pressing questions the video considers are not, “How do we counter Chinese aggression in the Pacific?” or even, “How do we secure the homeland from foreign adversaries?” Rather, the pressing questions are, “What would I do if I misgender someone?”, “What do I do if I want to know someone’s gender identity or pronouns?”, and how to refute your libertarian uncle at a family barbeque. I feel safer already.
It’s nice to know the Navy is not one bit worried by Iran enriching enough uranium to build a nuclear weapon — no training videos needed on that front. Nor do they seem concerned that China is pursuing a “substantial expansion of its nuclear arsenal,” reportedly intercepted a ballistic missile in flight, or just launched a new, made-exclusively-in-China aircraft carrier.
Clearly, they are so confident in America’s military superiority and readiness that they no longer need to focus on such banal concerns. After all, in the next major war, America will stand or fall based on how well those sailors know their pronouns — or, at least, that seems to be the U.S. Navy’s new theory of word-fare.

Completely sad. Just like the abortion issue, an inch was given and a mile was taken. I believe I have said b4 that I’ve never been an “activist” for my community, the LGB (fuck the rest) community. It all started with gay marriage. We were given Civil Unions, but they cried foul. So, under pressure, the gvt caved and marriage was bestowed, vexing millions of Christians and crushing all ground gained towards acceptance. Then came the cake fiasco. Some fags weren’t happy when a bakery used their rights and refused to make a cake for their wedding. The fags sued, won their case, and forced the bakery to comply (I hope their cake was spat in). Then the trans movement, which I firmly believe has NOTHING to do with LGB (we’re happy being our own sex). The T was assigned to us and, once again, disphoria is associate with LGB. Now, because of that T and the miserable millennials, a pronoun fiasco. Then onto the schools and kids with “Drag-queen story hour” and puberty blockers.NOW the activists have infiltrated our awesome military. As I said, that inch given and that mile taken. All respect once given to my community has vanished, unless you’re an unhinged Leftist.
The icing on the cake for the military is the Covid vaccine. Here’s a great finding reported on by a U-tuber.

Between Islam & leftist “wokeness”, our nation is deteriorating right before our eyes. I’ve been reading online that in recent times, our Navy in the Pacific has been stalked by hundreds of UFOs at a time. Who even knows who is watching us?
