Military readiness is collapsing.

Recruitment is collapsing.

Moral is collapsing.

The Chinese Communist Party is gearing up for war.

Our southern border is wide open - we are under invasion.

Our President* admits we have no ammunition.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

If you want that next stripe, next star, advancement, versus being gaslighted or worse, you keep your mouth shut and follow orders.

As for recruits, If I had to face DEI and HR and all the rest, I'd do it where the paycheck is the fattest, given the option.  That isn't a lack of patriotism, it is just making the most money where the damage is least.

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.
