I can tell you for sure, 100%, always, the wokies are no one's market. Ever.
On top of that, no leader wants a bunch of wokies in their squad/platoon/etc. They are useless. And useless in the Army means at some point they are guaranteed to be a serious liability. Everything a Soldier needs to be, is the antithesis of woke. The other branches are no different.
On the surface, it seems like insanity why they would adopt this marketing strategy. It seems like insanity why they would adopt all the new regulatory guidance they have in last few years. It is in concert with the insanity we are seeing in the woke approach to almost anything.
Does turning off domestic oil production, watching gas prices rise through the roof, begging OPEC for help, and shipping our oil reserves to Asia make ANY sense to ANYONE?
It sure does if you are trying to sabotage something. And/or you are so clueless you think this is a great idea to usher in some new panacea. Of course we all know, historically, what becomes of these attempts. Think of the purges of the Soviet military during the 30's and the impact it had on the USSR when Germany invaded. Who paid for it? The average Soviet citizen sent to be a flesh and blood speed bump by the millions when it did not have to be that way.
Since Milley went woke, I think shit has been rolling downhill in the Army. Add to that the JCS Whats His Name throwing orders to get woke, and we have a clusterfuck of epic proportions in the making. It's my understanding that warrior types are bailing out of the Army right now like rats deserting a sinking ship. I know one of them personally, and the closer he gets to final separation, the more "observations on conditions" roll out of him. It appears that the command structure is going soft and flaccid, and the troops are losing confidence in their commanders to a large degree.
I had heard about BidenHarris springing 19 million barrels out of the Strategic Oil reserve to cover his own foul-ups, but I had NOT heard that we were sending any of it to Asia! Are we supporting their strategic maneuvering and objectives now? I mean, that IS what a "Strategic Reserve" is really for, when all is said and done...
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it questionable that we cannot get shipping working enough to get products IN from Asia, but we have no difficulty shipping resources OUT to Asia?

How accurate it is, I can' tell you. I do know other countries are releasing some of their reserves too under the guise of lowering prices. How much a day or two's worth of oil will make is unclear.
