The GOP sure hates the idea of America knowing what is the truth.

MSG Joseph Cristofaro - you are correct. racism isn't exclusively a white thing. however, children are taught to be racist. many don't choose to make their own decision about that when they are old enough. many parents who teach their children to be racist have had some negative encounter(s) in their past and refuse to get over it. i know that is a bad choice of words, but an individual has to learn to not let their past experiences define their present and future interactions.

If they're telling their sailors they need to read Kendi's book and espousing the same bullshit he is, then they're complicit in the sad state of affairs our military is turning into.

SFC Michael Hasbun - Yeah I keep hearing about this "mandatory reading" stuff but in 17 years not once has anyone "mandated" me reading books nor would I if they tried to "order" me to read certain books.

I have seen multiple "suggested reading lists" from senior leaders though.

SFC (Join to see) - Same... Across 22 years and two different branches, I've never once seen any form of mandatory reading lists. Plenty of suggested lists, certainly, but there was never any effort to see if anyone was actually reading anything and not once have any of those suggested reading lists contained anything other than military, leadership or historical topics.

China is attempting to use empirical powers to control the whole South China Sea and the GOP is worried about this as the apex problem. Stupid and silly idiots. We should take those non military imbeciles and make them generals and admirals, and tell them to go at it. Stupid pendejos.

What is actually is funnier and dumber is China uses her empirical powers around the world as they buy port leases and make economic investments in many countries, and Trump's attempt of using strategic empirical powers was to trade dirty and poor Puerto Rico for Greenland. F@CKING BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MAJ Ken Landgren - Yup, both of them. And that matters, why?
Name calling doesn't help your argument, child. It just goes to show you have idea what you're talking about.
Keep trying.
