Enlisted Navy personnel I spoke to last month were pretty incensed about heritage clubs being cancelled & also being told they couldn’t wear uniforms to stuff like Black History Month events. This is not going to go over well.

It’s a big organization, and like any other, you’ll find some people within it who are reprehensible. Let’s not forget though that it also includes more than its fair share of people like Mark Milley.
Yeah that Mark Milley. It’s covered in The Atlantic article I linked. It seems clear he was tricked in to that appearance, extracted himself as soon as he realized his mistake, and then took responsibility.
Read the full article, your opinion of him might change.
When the US military finally snaps and mutinies, the only question will be whether Trump, his family, his Cabinet and cronies will be rounded up and detained at an airbase somewhere, before facing tribunals...
...or if they're summarily shot on the White House lawn.
They’re disrespecting our entire military! It’s absolutely disgusting and should not be tolerated!! End the Trump administration by any means necessary!!
I heard from an E-6 that, while delivering the news, a white officer, speaking to mostly black and hispanic crew, more or less signaled he had no intention of enforcing this stuff. These racist changes are just creating subversives, which is totally the opposite of what the military wants.
Worse, just because your local CO is cool doesn’t mean someone isn’t documenting any “violations” and submitting them up the chain. Or saving them from blackmail later.

Not as far as I can tell.

If he's that easily tricked he shouldn't be in charge of a Dairy Queen.
Good judgment is not something that only applies retrospectively.
If you want leaders who are never wrong people like Trump is what you’ll get.
I much prefer leaders with integrity who can admit and learn from their mistakes.
...or if they're summarily shot on the White House lawn.
cannot be emphasized enough that they are as incompetent as they are evil, and as evil as they are incompetent
Morale is huuuge.
We’ve never had a fighting force of christian white men capable of killing so bigly!
