Diversity, equity, and inclusion measures have created their fair share of controversy. While some claim that DEI is “designed to make people of various backgrounds feel welcome” in the workplace, there have been numerous instances in which the opposite seems to be the case.

In fact, countless experts have exposed DEI as none other than a “well-funded Marxist movement.”

Far from promoting “inclusion,” DEI has been criticized as both excluding and destroying anything that impedes its radical agenda. And there are several examples. As The Washington Stand reported in August 2023, NASCAR was caught in the act of banning white applicants from its “diversity Internship.”

On last Friday’s episode of “Washington Watch,” Matt Lohmeier, executive vice president of Stand Together Against Racism and Radicalism in the Services (STARRS), discussed the impact DEI has had on the U.S. military.

Lohmeier, who served as a lieutenant colonel in the Air Force and Space Force, described some of what the DEI indoctrination entails, including “training slides … at the Air Force Academy saying that they shouldn’t be using terms such as ‘mom and dad.’” And this, he added, “is absurd to the American mind and to your common American.” Not only is it absurd, Lohmeier went on to say, but it’s “offensive to these service members who signed up thinking that they were doing a noble service to their country and getting trained to be leaders and future officers in the United States military, to be bombarded with this propaganda and rhetoric that is so divisive.”

But beyond the damage pertaining to U.S. troops, Lohmeier explained that DEI is also “hurting our recruiting and retention efforts, as everyone has seen.” And considering the numerous ways DEI and the current administration have decreased military readiness, Lohmeier expressed his opinion that “this presidential election … is as critical of an election as we’ve ever had before.”
