| Message | First the racists said that white and blacks couldn't serve together as it would disrupt unit cohesion. Now people of all races serve together and this has been shown to be a racist myth. Then the misogynists said that men and women couldn't serve together as it would disrupt unit cohesion. Now people of both sexes serve together and this has been shown to be a sexist myth. Now the homophobes try to prevent homosexuals serving, claiming that it would disrupt unit cohesion. The reality is that in the many countries where people of sexual persuasions serve together, there is no such disruption and this has been shown to be a myth perpetuated by those who hate homosexuals. |
