Does Promoting Critical Race Theory Harm Military Unit Cohesion?

John Rossomando, Zero Hedge/The Epoch Times: Joint Chiefs Chairman Ignores Evidence Showing Critical Race Theory Harms Unit Cohesion

Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley dismissed concerns about neo-Marxist critical race theory. He feigned outrage at accusations the military was becoming “woke.” His cavalier response showed that at best he’s ignorant, and at worst he doesn’t care.

Critical race theory stems from a school of thought among post-Russian Revolution Marxist intellectuals who were disturbed by the fact communist revolution didn’t sweep Europe as Marx predicted. Orthodox Marxists deny that critical race theory is Marxist because it derives from a revisionist strain of thought. The revisionists reimagined Marxist theory to focus on who has power in society and who doesn’t instead of the class struggle between the working class and the capitalists found in Karl Marx’s writings.

WNU Editor: I mentioned in a previous post that the contrast between the U.S. and the internal military policies that it is pursuing in comparison to what Russia and China are focusing on right now is night and day.

On social issues like critical race theory .... both Russia and China know too well on how destructive these teachings will be on the social cohesion of its military, and they avoid it like the plague.

As John Rossomando eloquently puts it in the above post. Much of this thought comes from Soviet and Chinese Marxist teachings, and why at the time these measures had to be promoted in the West to bring the chaos that was necessary to help in the promotion and acceptance of Marxist/Communist solutions.

The military leadership in both Russia and China have all read-up on Marx/Engels/Lenin/etc., and more importantly, they have a very good understanding on what is necessary to keep a military unified and focused. Promoting critical race theory is definitely not on their agenda. An issue that unfortunately for all of us in the West is not shared by this White House and the Pentagon's leadership.
