You'd think a US Navy officer would benefit from some knowledge of history. But with Big Balls calling the shots based on crap spit out from AI, I guess we'll be okay.
Gen. Mark Milley:
'I’ve read Mao Zedong. I’ve read Karl Marx. I’ve read Lenin. That doesn’t make me a communist, he told the lawmakers.
'I do think it's important, actually, for those of us in uniform to be open-minded and be widely read,' Milley said.

By banning any book, politicians are weakening not just our military's education, but their ability to implement strategies that avoid, limit or end conflict.
You only need to look at Russia's aggression in Ukraine for an example of what that type of ignorance does to an Army.

Gen Sun Tzu
"If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles".
The Art of War:
Sun Tzu's teachings, are not just about military strategy, but also about understanding human nature and using deception and planning to gain an advantage.
The Navy should change their motto from "Non sibi sed patriae" ("Not self, but country") to "Non terra sed rhoncus asinus" ("Not Country, But Orange Asshole").

Lies My Teacher Told Me was a real page turner! It really exposes how this effort to sanitize American history to keep whites comfortable has been a constant gravitational well that’s difficult to escape.
You might have missed where they've already started doing that in Tennessee. It was 3 years ago but it did happen. They're just testing waters before the real bonfire starts.
What do we call these people? A radical attempt to erase the parts of history they don't want included in the canon. I am at a loss for an adequate label because so many negatives apply, the neo-Nazis, racists, post-modern segregationists, knuckle draggers. They will fail, but what a waste of time.
WTF? Old Navy salts who fought off seasickness in many an ocean storm feel like puking at seeing this library purge at the Naval Academy. "Let us dare to read, think, speak, and write." John Adams, 1765. Proud motto of Proceedings, distinguished journal of US Naval Institute. Let us dare indeed.

Book burners don’t read. They cite the bible but they haven’t entirely read that either. They just parrot a few cherry-picked verses.
Idiots.
Jesus & Elijah returned as women and marry each other.
Jesus is female in gender.
Elijah is male in gender.
Those that remain will shine w light and live forever.
