TX: Texas State Guard anti-extremism training?

Hopper: Left-Wing Agenda Has Infiltrated the Texas State Guard

Andy Hopper says he is a Warrant Officer in the Texas State Guard and attended "anti-extremism" training at Camp Mabry on 22 May 2021.
...

Specifically, troops were told that there was a list of extremist organizations and that soldiers with “extreme” views would be investigated. Troops were encouraged to report others whom they felt held “extreme” views.

During the question-and-answer dialog, we learned that although it wasn’t clear who had the list of extremist organizations, the NRA was known to be on the list. Troops were reminded that membership in the NRA would not necessarily be extreme, but fundraising or recruiting members certainly would be.

...

Also cited as extreme was any belief or opinion of an independent Texas. Students were counseled to quickly remove any “SECEDE” or “TEXIT” bumper stickers from their cars.

Step 1: The left convinces the people that we need to eliminate all "Extremist organizations".
Step 2: Declare any group that the left disagrees with to be "Extremest".

Pfft.
I retired from active duty in 2012. Next year, I'll be too old for the State Guard. I am the militia and we don't have silly rules/policies such as this.

The entire Guard should just resign en masse.
