Space Force Unit Commander Removed From His Post For Decrying Marxism in the Military

Nobody is always anything.

Even you are right on occasion.

If I’m not mistaken, you’re a life long civilian like me.

It isn’t wise for people like us to try and lecture veterans on how the military apparatus works.

It only makes you look foolish.

It’s not lecturing.

It’s an opinion.

One which the higher ups also hold.

One doesn’t need to be a vet to know how the military works.

Actually, yeah, you kind of do.

Reading doesn’t replace experience.

Nah reading is fine.

“The Defense Department said in a statement to CNN, “Lt. Gen. Stephen Whiting, Space Operations Command commander, relieved Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier of command of the 11th Space Warning Squadron, Buckley Air Force Base, Colorado, May 14, due to loss of trust and confidence in his ability to lead. This decision was based on public comments made by Lt. Col. Lohmeier in a recent podcast. Lt. Gen. Whiting has initiated a Command Directed Investigation (CDI) on whether these comments constituted prohibited partisan political activity.”

According to CNN, “Another defense official said the investigation would also look at all elements of rules and policy by which the book was published.” Lohmeier has been defended on social media by right-wing pundits and some Republican politicians.“

The higher ups didn’t like what he had to say and he was relieved of duty.

It’s pretty simple.

Sure it is.

Isn’t a civilian in charge if the military? :roll_eyes:

Chain of command.

Yes. Civilian control of the military is an important part of a republic.

But notice who advices them on direct military matters. The highest ranking officers in the armed forces, the Chiefs of Staff, directly advise the president.

Or in the case of trump, who knew better than all the generals.

‘This upset the woke, Marxist sympathizers in the US Military and Lohmeier was promptly removed from his post.’

Marxist sympathizers in the military? High enough up to can someone? Sorry, this is ridiculous.

Those Marxists are lurking everywhere, aren’t they? :joy::joy:

Yes they are.

You should check under your bed tonight. A favorite Marxist hiding spot.

Our penchant for overly chic sensitivity has nothing to do with Marxism. Marxism. Are there even any true Marxist countries left?

Put Marxism to rest and go after our silly wokeness. Please, I’ll join you. But Marxism. Karl would be ever so embarrassed to think we privileged, educated liberals are Marxist. As Max Von Sydow said in Hannah and Her Sisters about someone else, …if he came back and saw what’s going on in his name, ‘he’d never stop throwing up’ .

Watching libs cheer that the military is becoming as ideologically corrupt as they are.

Precious.

It is Marxism. Neo-marxism or whatever you want to call it. The latest attempt to “make it work”.

Is sickening to watch some plaster anti American posts day after day.
