Amid the murder of 60 people at the Kabul airport, including 13 U.S. soldiers during the junta's botched evacuation plans, the highest-ranking enlisted person in the U.S. Army was tweeting about [[diversity]]: "Diversity is a number - do you have people that don’t look or think like you in the room?
