The military’s infatuation with DEI-style ideology isn’t new. The force has openly commemorated leftists’ rainbow holiday for years, even going as far as using taxpayer money to transport service members to military-sponsored “pride” events.
What defenders of these needless celebrations refuse to acknowledge, however, is that the military’s obsession with LGBT radicalism and other neo-Marxist ideologies is undercutting its overall readiness.
Since Joe Biden assumed the presidency, the military has experienced its worst recruiting crisis since shifting to an all-volunteer force in the early 1970s. Every branch in the service, with the exception of the Marine Corps and Space Force, missed its recruiting targets for the 2023 fiscal year. The Army, Navy, and Air Force missed their goals by roughly 10,000, 7,400, and 2,700 recruits, respectively.
