It's hard now, though, because they're saying the military is too "woke" now, too! But without a steady influx of Good Ol' Boys how do we continue to justify our defense budget?

You can't be pro military and anti-woke, a lot of the aforementioned Good Ol' Boys have the same experience as the ones who go to college: they're exposed to minorities and realize the lies aren't true. How do you keep bodies going in while telling them not to go in because it's too "woke"?
