I think if you dig into Military Reg's there are a lot of hoops a man of his rank and background have to jump thru before they publish a book and talking in a public forum about his personal feelings about anything is a no no as well...especially if the force is clandestine in nature. He broke the tiny rules how can he be trusted with the big rules as well. His views on neo-marxism are moot and not the reason he was dropped but it makes for a nice headline for some.
Department of Defense Directive 1344.10 prohibits active-duty personnel from engaging in “partisan political activities.”
Funny how that doesn't keep top brass from criticizing MAGA folks in their ranks or Trump, thereby engaging in political partisan activities. Fuck them. Their rules no longer need to be followed. I hope that soldier publishes a tell all book.

The guy was already a security risk, publishing a book while on active duty... expressing political opinions while promoting his book...
He was relieved for those reasons, not for the specific political beliefs as the headline was phrased to suggest.
You can't trust clowns like that in top positions, breaking rules to line their own pockets, etc. Extremely bad judgement on his part.
So what. The military is expressing political views as well. Fuck the military. I no longer respect them. Respect has to be earned.

Excellent point about the "small rules" vs "big rules". Makes a lot of sense in that perspective.
