This general reads CRT and then incorporates their destructive views and language, making them his own. He's not simply reading critical theory, he is a practitioner of it. That's the difference.
Claiming that the military is adopting CRT is an unsubstantiated claim so you should be careful how you toss around the word ignorant. So go ahead and show me one example, just one where Gen. Milley is practicing or incorporating their destructive views.

How about backing up Gaetz claim that CRT is being taught at the military academy.

Yeah, can't have that Marxist crap in the military, or frankly, ANYWHERE in the country!!!

You can stick your fingers in your ears and say "It's not true. It's not true".
But it is true. The link below even has his c-span commentary on it....his words coming from his mouth.

America’s top military officer on Wednesday defended teaching “critical race theory” to US Army cadets at West Point — and said it’s important for those in uniform to understand “white rage.”

During a budget hearing held by the House Armed Services Committee, Army Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Pentagon’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, said that “on the issue of critical race theory, etc., a lot of us have to get much smarter on whatever the theory is.”

There is a big difference between studying CRT and teaching CRT.

"a lot of us have to get much smarter on whatever the theory is.”

He doesn't know what it is but "a lot of us have to get smarter on whatever the theory is", but he has to jump all over the Marxist related theory? And this Einstein is a US General

Yep, typical Marxist

I said this general has adopted the language of CRT, and our military members are reporting other CRT influenced training, such as ‘privilege walks.’ Reading about our enemy is one thing, instructing our military men and women to adopt the language and the views of our enemy is another thing entirely.

Oh for crying out loud! Learning about something is not the same as espousing it. Do you want the leaders of our military to be a bunch of no-nothing grunts?

Agreed, and Gen. Milley is espousing the language of CRT and the woke.

When you take CRT to it's logical end, it can only tear down the current whole system of government and replace it with something else.

General Milley needs to figure that out. Which way does he go ?
