We’re watching the slow collapse of the Net Zero, Gender identity bubble
Australia’s largest military ally announced a major change in direction yesterday — shucking the Woke Hair Shirt and baubles of diversity:
Hegseth boasted of “remov[ing] the social justice, politically correct and toxic ideological garbage that had infected our department”.
He added: “No more identity months, DEI offices, dudes in dresses. No more climate change worship, no more division, distraction or gender delusions, no more debris.”
But most Australians won’t know that. The Australian ABC carefully buried this big shift inside a story on the US budget battle. The transformation of US military values was dismissed as just a “pep-talk” for generals. The ABC showed Trump making an inconsequential joke, and Hegseth discussing physical fitness and shaving. In other words, the ABC wants you to think this was a fitness campaign for a”dysfunctional” government which can’t even pay its generals today. How many Australians would join the dots that the country we depend on for protection just shot down twenty years of leftist fashion bubbles? Where were the interviews with the Australian Deputy Director of Navy Diversity & Inclusion (who knew we had one), Commander Prudence Hawkins-Griffiths? Last year, she was “doubling down” on diversity and inclusion. Where were the questions of whether our defense force is rethinking their Net Zero Strategy and Future Energy Strategy. As the Department of Defense said last year:
Climate change is a national security issue. It poses risks to Australia’s national interests and exacerbates geostrategic risks. The shift to net zero not only contributes to making Australians safer but also enhances Australia’s standing in the Indo-Pacific.
If the ABC was serving Australians it might have asked questions about whether our soldiers can change the global climate without losing any military edge? Can we have our cake, eat it, and stop storms with the same cake? We need to know…
By investing in clean energy, investigating opportunities for adopting lower-carbon fuels and preparing for future energy needs, Defence will contribute to a cleaner, safer environment and more resilient Australia, without compromising military preparedness or operational requirements.

For a lesson in soft propaganda from the ABC watch from 16 minutes on ABC iView. Most of the agitprop is that which is left unsaid. Only those who already know the news, know what they’re missing, which is why the ABC gets away with it.
So the more we share, the harder it is for them.
For those who want to see more, at what was an extraordinarily rare roomful of senior military heads:
