Do you agree with Pete Hegseth's comment that Obama created a moral divide between military and civilian life?

If these are the kinds of military moral divides Hegseth has argued against, I suggest he wake up in the 21st Century.

Addendum:

Regarding moral concerns about using nuclear weapons said “Who cares - they lost” about the Japanese.

Why are people saying that Trump is fat when he is an athletic 6 foot 3 and 215 pounds?

I’ve since (in a couple of days) read a bit more about Hegseth’s background and views. The article I read addressed a controversy about a tatoo as being associated with a right wing Christian Nationalist group which espouses a goal of incorporating Old Testament rules into American life and American laws.

12 women in this picture have 775 confirmed Nazi kills.

This shows his desire for “moral equivalence” between the military and civilian US is very different from what many average Americans would regard as “moral”. Regarding Hegseth’s views of “morality”,

How can you tell if someone is cunning?

Has advocated fewer benefits for injured Veterans because long term support for injured Veterans is “contrary to an Ethos of service”.

I’ve heard that he is opposed to Women in combat roles. While many changes occured in military doctrine under Obama, these are not really attributed to Obama but to changes in our society more broadly. Women admitted to military academies. Women admitted to combat roles based on demonstrated fitness for such service, and based in part on womens’ own determination to seek service in those kinds of roles. These are an outgrowth of women’s own desires to break out of traditional roles as restrictive and the fact that those women want to explore their own personal capabilities and stretch traditional boundaries of womanhood.

Is twice divorced for Infidelity, after fathering a child with a Fox News coworker while married, and has indicated sex with unconscious women is not rape. Further, a woman who alleged Hegseth raped her while she was unconscious has been paid off to sign an NDA, like Trump himself.

Why does my vagina and around my butthole itch? I don't have weird discharge and I'm still a virgin.

Regarding his “moral divide”, as stated in the original question, Hegseth has:

I would imagine the “moral divide” refers to the acceptance of gays in the military, but I’ve seen no evidence that this is what the OP or Hegseth may be referring to.

Since the Hegseth bio says he was a Platoon Leader in the Minnesota National Guard, I would view Hegseth’s understanding of the moral divide as seriously as I would Gomer Pyle’s platoon Sergeant.

Do you think most people would rather be a certain race or are most people happy with the race they are?

A more reasoned approach IF I TOOK THIS QUESTION SERIOUSLY (which I do not) would be to research a little.

Urged President Trump in his first term to pardon soldiers accused of war crimes (shooting unarmed civilians).

How do you fight the push and pull (manipulation) tactic if you want to win him?

WTF was he talking about? I’ve never seen a linkage of morality between the military and civilian life. Soldiers are regularly asked to do things which are immoral in a civilian context, and ALWAYS HAVE HAD A MORAL DIVIDE.

Taking a bit more serious tone:

Nineteen countries permit women in most combat roles. Similarly the only developed nation which excludes gays from their military is South Korea.

Can you describe your experience taking the AIPMT/NEET entrance exam? Did you feel nervous or afraid while entering the examination hall and writing the exam?

Did he actually say it? When and in what context?

Voiced praise for Waterboarding.

Why do women stubbornly refuse to let men lead, even though they are attracted to the man, and the man both loves and desires them? Why do they get angry and blame the man when he gets fed up and walks away, when it's entirely their own fault?

My first reaction to this is confusion and astonishment. But then, I recall that Hegseth was a Fox commentator and I imagine all manner of incomprehensible crap being on the menu.

Plenty of women have proven they are capable of serving in combat with honor and distinction. Service members such as Tammy Duckworth heroicly being injured in combat, losing both legs and doing so with the same honor and courage as men. She was co-piloting a Blackhawk helicopter when hit by a rocket propelled grenade. She was awarded the Purple Heart, Air Medal, and Air Force Commendation Medal, but none of this was under Obama. In 2004, she was wounded in service to the Bush administration.
