The current secretary of defense is literally a diversity hire. Meanwhile no one is proposing structural changes to the systems that have historically disenfranchised women and communities of color.

It is literally all for show, and the people putting on the show own the top 3 news outlets in the country.

It’s genius honestly. Sick, but genius.

Who after serving lined his pockets with defense contractor money then went back in to government. Disgusting.

That's what literally everyone in the military does. You serve your 20+ years to get your pension, and then "retire" and become a contractor doing exactly the same job for more money. The military industrial complex is fucked up, but Lloyd Austin isn't doing anything new. This shit has been going on for like 100 years.

Good to see more people calling out the toxic neolib agenda. It's all lip service without actuaslly tackling any of the structural issues.
