America's military leaders take a stand as Trump remains silent on racial inequality

200110163253-01-milley-file-2019-medium-tease.jpg


Last Sunday, four-star Gen. Robert Abrams, who commands all US forces in South Korea, held a town hall with black service members on the subject of race that was then broadcast on Facebook to thousands.

Abrams made it a point to have everyone attending the event wear civilian clothes -- an important symbol to lessen signs of military rank. Abrams told the audience "we're going to develop an action plan with real meat on the bones to get after this. We are not going to put up with this one second longer this time."

Abrams, who is white, spoke in deeply personal terms. "From my time of service, I've tried real hard to be part of the solution, and it was really difficult for me to come to grasp this week that I have fallen way short in helping eliminate racism and bigotry in our own ranks."

Abrams' town hall is just one example of how America's top military leaders are attempting to move ahead on their own to address the issue of racism in the ranks without waiting for President Donald Trump to decide if he wants to speak to the country following nationwide protests prompted by death of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis.
 
so like, its okay to hold our arm out with a first and shout black power, but you cant open your fist and say white power.

is black national socialism becoming a thing now
 
Brilliant article on how the Left wing media is destroying itself.

But police violence, and Trump’s daily assaults on the presidential competence standard, are only part of the disaster. On the other side of the political aisle, among self-described liberals, we’re watching an intellectual revolution. It feels liberating to say after years of tiptoeing around the fact, but the American left has lost its mind. It’s become a cowardly mob of upper-class social media addicts, Twitter Robespierres who move from discipline to discipline torching reputations and jobs with breathtaking casualness.

The leaders of this new movement are replacing traditional liberal beliefs about tolerance, free inquiry, and even racial harmony with ideas so toxic and unattractive that they eschew debate, moving straight to shaming, threats, and intimidation. They are counting on the guilt-ridden, self-flagellating nature of traditional American progressives, who will not stand up for themselves, and will walk to the Razor voluntarily.
