WASHINGTON (AP) — Scouting America will alter several policies at the urging of the Pentagon, including one targeting transgender youths, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced Friday as he pushes a campaign against military support for diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.
Under Hegseth, the Pentagon has taken aim at the military’s partnership with Scouting America, decrying its historic rebrand in 2024 from the Boy Scouts and other changes in recent years that he sees as part of “woke culture” efforts that he wants to root out.
The U.S. military and the Boy Scouts have had longtime ties, including the military providing logistical support for the National Boy Scout Jamboree since its inception in 1937.
The military also has a long history of sponsoring Scout troops and activities on U.S. military bases and has maintained a strong relationship with the Eagle Scouts, whose members often enlist in the armed forces.
Burn it to the fucking ground.
Yes. Burn everything good and happy for internet points.
Yes, they have had historic issues and made some bad choices. So have schools, youth sports, universities, and literally EVERY youth organization more than 30 years old. So why take away this opportunity from kids today just so that you can feel morally superior?
I’m sorry. Maybe you misunderstood me. Google or search “Glenn Jordan BSA”. Quite literally dozens of my childhood friends were groomed and raped by pedophiles because of this organization. There were, potentially, hundreds of victims, and as Jordons molestation would evolve into grooming, and the conversion of victims into pedophiles themselves. Until the Epstein files, the BSA has been responsible for some of the largest incidence of molestation and pedophilia in US history.
So, let me be clear.
BURN. IT. TO. THE. FUCKING. GROUND.
Pedophile apologist.
Good. So video games are also used to from kids. So burn that industry to the ground right?
Schools are also used to from kids. Burn that to the ground.
Universities. Burn them to the ground.
Right?
I don’t think video games rape children. But you are apologizing for an organization that does.
Dude. Research Roblox.
just curious, has your sole debate strategy of whataboutism ever gotten you anywhere?
