DEI is like a woke IED for the left’s war against our military. We must defuse it

A war is being waged against American society. The goal? To disrupt it, break it down and remake it in a completely different way. This sort of assault falls under the category of “political warfare” – meaning the use of all weapons of power, short of a shooting war, to achieve goals.

DEI as a weapon

One of the most successful political warfare weapons used against American society is DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion). Those who wield it know their goal. As Democrat Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley said: “the truth is that America needs DEI [diversity, equity and inclusion] to disrupt systems of oppression that are active in every facet of society.”

Sound a little like the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)? Not surprisingly, for decades China-linked entities have used real societal issues as cover to support organizations that exacerbate American societal divisions to advance CCP interests.

In 1971, during China’s murderous Cultural Revolution, Huey Newton, founder of the Black Panthers, traveled to China where he met a supportive Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai. Back in the U.S., the Panthers sold copies of Mao’s Little Red Book to raise money, including for weapons.

Beijing doesn’t care about discrimination in America, it wants to pit American against American and weaken the country from the inside in order to make it easier to “win without fighting.” DEI is an effective political warfare weapon to achieve that goal.

Once inside organizations, DEI programs function like IEDs (improvised explosive device) in a battle zone. They lie hidden. Then, one wrong move and bang – your career, self-worth, ability to provide for your family, can be over. And no one looks at you the same way again.

(This analogy in no way minimizes the horror of the physical damage caused by real world IEDs. It’s just a way to understand the seriousness of the institutional and personal damage done by DEI.)

One aspect of IEDs is those who place them, and/or remotely detonate them, stay safely out of the blast zone. Similarly, those using DEI/IEDs to attack know there is rarely any punishment, even for false accusations.
