Pete Hegseth blasts " insane fallacy that 'our diversity is our strength.'”

So if you don't eat, you would starve to death. Is eating being forced also?

Here's a solution. Find another without the need to speak a foreign language. That too is being forced, correct?
Dude, if you are learning a second language purely out of pleasure, that's all fine by me. But if you make the conditions such that people would lose their economic edge by not speaking a second language then I am sorry but that's just wrong.

So you're saying the company cannot set its rules?

If company X has operations in India and require applicants to speak Hindi to run operations there, what's wrong with that? Don't like the rules, find work with another without the requirement.

Is it wrong to make people learn a second language out of necessity rather than pleasure? Yes or no.

Is it wrong for your employer to say you need to be at work by 8 or find another job? Yes or no?
 
NO, everyone wasn't the same. Even after the Army Desegregated, how blacks were treated was different.
Of course. There are some things that cannot be forced. The military can treat people the same, dress them alike, even have matching shoes and haircuts. They just cannot force people to treat everyone the same.
 
Poor Aryan Hegseth. Someone did not tell him yet that we, a nation of mutts, defeated Trump's ancestors' asses.
That was an America that was 90% white. You wanna try that now? Good luck with that ! We have every ethnicity and religion in the world en mass. You are not going to unite them against a common enemy. Most of them are here for economic reasons not mom, apple pie, Chevrolet, and Old Glory!:laughing0301: Yeah we can stomp on third world backwaters, but an equally matched enemy....forget it!

But yet.

The military has different uniforms for men and women.

They have different grooming standards for different races because they have various kinds of hair. (I used to know a guy in the guard who never liked to trim his afro, so he'd jam it into his hat. The Sergeant was not amused.

The problem with "Diversity" isn't that minorities, women, and LGBTQ people are serving, they've been doing that for decades.

It's the problem of the system not favoring straight white men for promotion as much, which is causing resentment.

But yet,

Today we have diversity. Grooming standards. Dress. Is no longer uniform but personal. That's what's wrong with the military and what secretary Hegseth is trying to fix.

Yet all branches of the military reached recruiting goals early.

The military is not a place for self expression.

Indeed, the people that want "diversity" are not the ones attracted to the military.

If anything, they are driven away by it.

You mean lowered goals?

It's a place for self-betterment. Only real reason to join.

Of course, I wouldn't recommend anyone join now, and if you are close to the end of your enlistment, get out.

Then you won't be asked to do something you will end up regretting later.

I officially call BS on your claims of having ever served.

Certainly the ones who want to design their own uniforms are driven away
 
They were forcing uniformity. Black servicemen were just as army green or navy blue as anyone else. Everyone was the same.
And that is nonsense. As abraham lincoln said in his 1858 debate with stephen douglas:

I will say that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races from living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they can not so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.

So true. Had Lincoln not been assassinated he would have removed all black people from the country.
