    The army is very conservative when it comes to white troops. Sadly, this will impact our ability to go to war since white troops make up the combat arms and special forces

    Here is an interesting admission that conservatism favors white people over others for some things, despite wintermule’s pathological and repeated assertions that the progressives are the racist ones.

    Also of note is the use of the word “sadly”, which would seem to indicate the knowledge that conservatism is not best possible guiding philosophy for all situations.

      It doesn’t favor white people. Where did you get that hogwash? Conservatives are more duty bound and well love the country. So yes, they serve in the military at a higher rate. White people are more likely to to combat arms.

        Ok sorry, I must have misunderstood. All I know is, despite my ASVAB I didn’t actually get a choice of MOS.

          That means you didn’t score very high or there wasn’t very much available when you enlisted.
