None of what you said there is true. That’s not how these investigations work. The idea that the Navy screens out conservatives is laughable. Your friend is lying to you.
The vibe matters to recruitment. Whether it's a lie or not is frankly immaterial. People decide based on feelings, and if the Pentagon had any sense, they'd work to make sure the feelings were one of benevolence and camaraderie.
You know... if there were no recruiting crisis, your criticism would be fine, but since there is a recruiting crisis, maybe it would behoove those in power to listen.
I think your friend did something and doesn't want to talk about it. Even the armed forces folks that were in January 6th got a slap alone. I've friends in the armed forces and if there's one thing they said no one cares about is your politics, specially at recruiting, they just want more bodies, as long as you don't have a swastika tattooed or show up with a KKK hood you're going to get in.
