Here's just a few. Read them all
"An O-6 who works in the DC area tells me they’re all terrified of some E-4 just feeling mean one day and ending their careers with a false accusation."
"I imagine command is now less about leadership than it is about trying not to step on any DEI landmines."
"I work in a position where I encounter many of the O-5s and E-9s in that group. An alarming amount of them seem low-key dreading facing the “weaponized investigation” culture that is currently pervasive."
"It’s on par with the Soviet and PRC commanders having a political officer in their command."
"The promotion system has become decisively less meritocratic degrading the meaning and status of command but most of all the nature of command has changed. A lot more time is spent managing the vast amount of social-experiment driven admin tasks."
"My 2 CG O-3 sons are separating soon; they have no desire to become what they see above them."
"Will likely come out on the next CSL but have already decided to decline. After Covid, AFG withdrawal, weak senior leaders, etc my faith in the institution is rock bottom."
"FemiCommies & social justice. Too dangerous, not worth it."
"I’m aware of several dedicated career leaders, 05/06 that ultimately chose the command of self and family, would have to change personal (and traditional) principals to continue; bend the knee to the political-DEI patronage system."
"Good commanders who hold people to a standard end up under investigation."
"This cancer has spread through every command level on the active duty side as well as the GS system that’s supporting the warfighters. A white male either bends the knee and walks on egg shells or accepts the end of their career. Leader’s decision are guided by fear of the system instead of truth and integrity."
"That's why my nephew (O-3) bugged out. He realized as a white male he could not make a career in the military."
