May 18, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) – Criticizing leftist ideology’s impact on the United States Armed Forces is a fireable offense in President Joe Biden’s America, as Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier of the U.S. Space Force learned the hard way recently.
Lohmeier, the commander of the 11th Space Warning Squadron at Buckley Air Force Base, recently self-published a book titled Irresistible Revolution: Marxism’s Goal of Conquest & the Unmaking of the American Military. In an interview for the book on a May 7 podcast, he discussed the spread of critical race theory (CRT, the “view that the law and legal institutions are inherently racist and that race itself … is used by white people to further their economic and political interests at the expense of people of colour”) within the military through so-called “diversity and inclusion” programs.
This push, he went on, is contributing to a culture in which liberal views are being favored over conservative ones, and military leaders are fearful of reprisals for not conforming to the new dominant ideology. “I want to make it clear to both (Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin) and every service member, this agenda, it will divide us, it will not unify us,” he said.
