Mike Garcia tweeted: “As an AF vet this is pathetic and embarrassing. You must focus on winning wars and not on social or political issues. Disgusting.”

The tweet is part of an unprecedented official US military campaign to celebrate LGBT pride as part of Commander-in-Chief Joe Biden’s leftist “diversity” umbrella. As WND reported on Tuesday, the Pentagon chose to honor a radical gay activist, Harvey Milk, as a symbol of this year’s “pride” activities. Milk, who was harassed by gay predators as a young teenager, entered into a sexual relationship with a 16- or 17-year-old boy when he was in his late thirties.

Conservatives immediately reacted with scorn to the meme, in which the shadowy figure salutes a flag that appears to be a combination of the original “gay” and “transgender” pride flags.

Several people tweeted in response to the message that they will discourage their sons from signing up to serve in this military, seemingly confirming widespread criticism that Biden’s “wake-up” Pentagon policies are linked to flagging recruiting efforts.

This is so gross.

My children will NEVER dare to sign up.

“I’m so old I remember when our military only saluted the American flag…not a flag that celebrated all the things people have sex with,” tweeted talk show host Tim Young, who often fills in for some of the main conservative talkers.

John Burk tweeted in response: “More proof that the military has focused primarily on corporate agendas to appease the progressive crowd. Their recruitment numbers are plummeting and this is the main reason. So instead of just focusing on the war and things like that, they continue down this path that is destroying them. Sad situation for the military”.

I wonder why it’s so hard for us to recruit people for the army.

In 2021, President Biden struck down a Trump policy and gave blanket approval for US embassies abroad to fly the “rainbow flag” to celebrate LGBT “pride.”

The creator of the “meme” needs to be investigated. Airmen do not salute the flag of the religion of sex. You may think you have destroyed our country, but there are more of us than you who hate our country. You will NOT win this battle.
