The Truth Perspective: The Affirmative Action Brigade: How Identity Politics Is Destroying Western Militaries

Traditionally a male institution, the last decades have seen the rise of policies that push for equal inclusion of women in all areas of military service. But they're not working, for some strange reason. Men still dominate militaries all over the world, including in western democracies. This has led to charges of systemic discrimination, misogyny and toxic masculinity. But no worry, the gender activists have the solution: affirmative action, including special woman-only incentives to attract them into the military.
But will these additional policies work? Or will they only result in a more 'toxic' military atmosphere? Are the ideals of 'diversity, inclusivity, and equity' compatible with the purpose of a military as an effective fighting force, or are they mutually exclusive? Today on the Truth Perspective we look at recent developments of gender politics in the military, with Australia as a case study and ask the question: are such policies making the military a better institution, or just making it weak?

I am 85 years old and a homosexual. I demand to have the right to join the US Army, (not to fight, really, but for the chance to fuck some sturdy young blond boys.) It's rank discrimination to deny me this equal-opportunity right. It might even be unconstitutional! Orange Turd and bleeding-heart liberals, take note!!
(PS: Jews are always in the forefront of the fight for human rights. Maybe, if the US Army won't have me, I could join the Israeli Defense Forces and murder a few pregnant women, in between fucking and getting fucked by those lovely circumcised hairy boys?)

What's with the womans gloves? How the hell does she pull the trigger?

Potatoes and Tomatoes who cares! Girls with guns are triple hot!
HVACTech LOL. You've been getting wittier by the day.
Potatoes and Tomatoes The trigger? The trigger? We thought you'd never ask. Why, she pulls it with her tongue.... Now you know how she got admitted to that particular army.... Not for her trigger-pulling prowess, but for the other things she can do with that tongue.

Gentlemen, judging by the above conversation, if this is how worked up men get upon seeing a photo of a woman with a gun, what would happen if the current push for equality and inclusion in the army did its job and we'd see military forces consisting of 50% women?
The only hope that an inclusive army could save a country would be in the male part wanting to show off
It was a very good show btw, I'd highly recommend listening to it. Given that the Australian army has to lure (or bribe?) women into joining the army with perks and what not goes to show that the theory of including everyone in everything works much better than practice.
Maybe equality and inclusivity loving liberal women should join the army themselves to help keep the numbers equal? The enemy would certainly appreciate the equality.
Oh... wait... [Link]
Ant22...I like the 'then'...the 'now' is terrifying!
Potatoes and Tomatoes Yeah Potatoes and Tomatoes, no wonder they're so confused about which toilet to use! If I was to decide for them I'd get them to pee outside.
The funny thing is that it is people like this who push for diversity and inclusion everywhere. Just imagine such beauties protecting the borders of the country you live in. And arguing with the enemy that they are being disproportionally targeted by gun fire.
Lol! Doesn't really bear thinking about! Seriously though, warfare is a nasty business. For people who want inclusivity, I wonder how much they really think about the practicalities...too busy proving a point, maybe they don't see the enemy? Hey, maybe this is the future of warfare? [Link] . I can but hope!
Potatoes and Tomatoes Yeah, thinking about practicalities ain't their strength for sure. Also, over 90% of all workplace deaths are men: [Link]
I'm not sure if this includes soldiers but it's funny that those equality lovers don't push women into the most 'workplace death' prone professions to even out the numbers.

The survivors of a U.S. military drone attack on a wedding party can feel aussaged that the operator was a gay person or woman.
