They have plans to send their Christian warrior class of fanatics out to conquer the Americas.
I’d be thrilled to get rid of them but couldn’t in good conscience send them somewhere else. We need to clean up our own messes like grownups.
Where are they going to send them instead? Prager U?
Well yeah Harvard is obligated to treat women as equals, can't have that
this department has sent our best and brightest officers to Harvard, hoping the university would better understand and appreciate our warrior class,
That's, uh, not why DoD occasionally sends officers to Harvard and other elite universities. DoD does this because they want some of their officers to have high quality advanced degrees.
You can't expect Secretary Kegseth to understand such high-falutin' concepts.
Republicans don't like an educated populace. "Smart people don't like me"
also the more an officer understands humanity the less likely the are to follow inhumane orders
Harvard isn't where the smart people go to become smarter. It's where the rich kids go to network and socially reproduce their capitalist values system.
The decision by the Pentagon is a political realignment. No doubt they'll start recruiting more heavily from Texas, Florida, Stanford and the Trump aligned tech sector.
Better to be woke than fascist
Better dead than a fascist.
But Harvard spent SO Much Time and Money bending the Knee! HOW could THIS Happen?
As much as Harvard perpetuates some pretty terrible aspects of american culture, it's still top tier on eduction.
Way to take an arrow to the knee Hegseth.
it’s still top tier on eduction
It's not.
Harvard is a business school instrumental in networking between wealthy families.
The education they provide can be found at any state school.
So the war department is sleepy. Got it.
considering brown and rainbow people as "equals" is now "globalist and radical ideologies"
Adding to my somewhat short list of good things Trump did (I consider a dumber officer corps for the American war machine a good thing).
