Military Groomers Are Increasingly Infiltrating United States High Schools by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!
Listen to a reading of this article:
Protect your kids.
A New York Times report has found that enrollment in the Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC), a Pentagon-funded program designed to groom children for military service, is increasingly becoming mandatory in United States high schools.
"J.R.O.T.C. programs, taught by military veterans at some 3,500 high schools across the country, are supposed to be elective, and the Pentagon has said that requiring students to take them goes against its guidelines," the report says. "But The New York Times found that thousands of public school students were being funneled into the classes without ever having chosen them, either as an explicit requirement or by being automatically enrolled."
"While Pentagon officials have long insisted that J.R.O.T.C. is not a recruiting tool, they have openly discussed expanding the $400 million-a-year program, whose size has already tripled since the 1970s, as a way of drawing more young people into military service. The Army says 44 percent of all soldiers who entered its ranks in recent years came from a school that offered J.R.O.T.C.," the Times reports.
In high schools across the United States, thousands of students are being placed in the militarys JROTC classes without choosing them on their own.
"The only word I can think of is "indoctrination,"" one parent said.-The New York Times (nytimes) December 11, 2022
And before you ask, no, the Pentagons grooming program is not being forced on kids in Malibu and the Hamptons.
"A vast majority of the schools with those high enrollment numbers were attended by a large proportion of nonwhite students and those from low-income households," the Times reports, naming Detroit, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Oklahoma City, and Mobile, Alabama as cities where high schools are funneling kids into the program en masse.
Defenders of mandatory JROTC enrollment reportedly cite the need to "divert students away from drugs or violence" and "the allure of drugs and gangs" in urban areas, as though corralling them into the single most violent gang on Earth is a deterrence from violence and gangs. Grooming students to go kill foreigners for crude oil is not my idea of a healthy diversion from youthful error, but maybe that is just me.
This would probably be a good time to remind readers that poverty in the United States is one of the Pentagons most effective recruiting tools, with Army officials explicitly acknowledging that young peoples inability to afford a college education on their own is responsible for their success in meeting recruitment goals, and United States lawmakers warning that helping people pay off crushing student debt will hurt recruitment. United States military recruiters have an established record of targeting poorer schools, because impoverished communities often see military service as their only chance at upward mobility.
US Lawmakers Say Student Loan Forgiveness Will Hurt Military Recruiting
"Those economic pressures are why United States Army officials have explicitly said that the student loan crisis is to thank for their success in meeting recruitment goals."-Caitlin Johnstone (caitoz) September 20, 2022
The New York Times describes a cult-like environment in these JROTC programs where "parents in some cities say their children are being forced to put on military uniforms, obey a chain of command and recite patriotic declarations in classes they never wanted to take," with special textbooks which "at times falsify or downplay the failings of the United States government." And if even The New York Times believes you are falsifying and downplaying the failings of the United States government, it has got to be pretty bad.
Victims of the military grooming program told the Times that they were put in frequent contact with military recruiters who pushed the idea of enlisting to pay for college, with one student saying a male recruiter "still texts me to this day" even well after graduation.
I am not sure how United States of American parents could possibly read of such things without being intensely creeped out.
Every day I see United States conservatives mindlessly bleating about "groomers" in the LGBT community trying to turn children into sexual deviants, claiming kids are being "indoctrinated" in school by learning about gay marriage and respect for trans people, but none of them seem to have any problem with the real-life indoctrination and grooming kids are subjected to by the most murderous and depraved institution in the world.-Bob Moran (bobscartoons) June 9, 2022
One of the dumbest things happening in mainstream western political discourse right now is the way conservatives are increasingly framing themselves as societys last bulwark against the normalization of child molestation, something which has been growing reliably less normalized and more aggressively rejected across the entire political spectrum for generations. But sure, pretend the ideology which wants to drag civilization back to the days of the Boy Scouts, the Catholic Church, and fathers reigning supreme over their household (and everyone in it) are the ones protecting us from the rape of children.
The most consequential groomers of our day are not LGBT people and their allies, but the adults who are grooming children to violently enact the will of the most tyrannical regime on earth with the full support of their government. And yet so far it has been mostly conservatives who I have seen defending the news of mandatory JROTC enrollment in impoverished neighborhoods. They are not just fine with this kind of indoctrination, they actively support it.
And to them I can only say, okay groomer!!
