Journalist Tucker Carlson made comments about the wokeness of the US military, and the military responded by attacking Tucker, not yet with a drone strike, but threats were made. After a public backlash, there has been a retreat, but they showed their colours. This are fast moving to a total military/police tyranny.
“A U.S. Marine Corps unit’s Twitter account says it “messed up” in its comments while responding to Fox News host Tucker Carlson as part of a debate over his commentary about U.S. servicewomen.
The official account for the II Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group used a pejorative on social media in responding to Carlson’s recent statements on how the military should be focused more on adversaries and less on culture issues.
The Marines shared a picture of a female soldier carrying a male one and tagged Carlson, writing that the photo showed “what it looks like in today’s armed forces.”
“Get right before you get left, boomer,” the account said, using a word widely considered a pejorative term.
After intense pushback for using an official military account to slam a private citizen, the Marines unit said: “We are human and we messed up. What was intended as a tweet in support of our female Marines and sisters serving in uniform was clearly not aligned with our standard practices or an appropriate representation of the Marine Corps. We will do better and serve the people.”
“We can do better and we will collectively take a knee, review our procedures and get back in the fight. Our focus is to train, fight and win and we have a hard time doing that without your support,” the Marines’ account added in another tweet.
The Department of Defense inspector general didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The situation was the latest development in an ongoing clash between Carlson and the military, with some of the force’s highest officials lambasting the Fox News host for his views.
Carlson on March 9 on his show played comments from President Joe Biden, who has made elevating women in the military a priority in recent weeks.
In remarks on International Women’s Day the day prior at the White House, Biden highlighted how he’d nominated two women for four-star command positions in the armed forces. The nominations will underscore to young women just beginning their careers in the military that “no door will be closed to them,” Biden said.
Military leaders realize “there’s much, much more work to be done to ensure that women’s leadership is recognized and we have more diverse leaders” and that “all women feel safe and respected in our military,” Biden said. “Some of it is relatively straightforward work where we’re making good progress designing body armor that fits women properly; tailoring combat uniforms for women; creating maternity flight suits; updating—updating requirements for their hairstyles.”
Imagine this degenerate armed force going up against China. The US will have to go nuclear after its defeat, or just surrender., which is probably by what Bidenites want.
