Navy's Inclusivity Recruitment Drive Could Sink Its Ship

If you’re looking for a stocky, dumpy-looking hemale, go no further than the U.S. Navy.

Would our Navy act differently if the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) was at the helm?


The U.S. Navy has fallen far short of its recruiting goals for 2023.

Total recruitment has dropped by 6,000 enlistees, representing a 16% shortfall. So, what do the galaxy brains running the service decide to do to boost recruitment and attract sailors?

Do they appeal to patriotism, the challenge of service and love of country?

Ha Ha Ha! What are you, a Chinese recruiter?

That is so oppressive and white-adjacent.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

This seems eerily reminiscent of the Bud Light fiasco. :yowsa:

Take the 'macho' completely out of a formerly 'macho' profession, associate it with deviant behaviour, burden it with ridiculous social rules with the force of the UCMJ, and people will just run to your door, right?

NOPE.

Would you want to be on a boomer crew for a six month tour beneath the waves with people who didn't even get what sex they were? Would you want to count on someone who felt slighted because you used the wrong pronouns, coming in for a landing on a pitching deck?
Would you want to serve under officers who pushed for this dreck?

That's kind of a Hell NO ^nth

And if these idiots can't figure out why their recruitment is coming up short, they should be drummed out of the service because there is no way they are capable of dealing with tactical or strategic issues in combat if they fail to assess why they are failing.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
