Following this line of logic, the soviet union, the gayest army on earth, beat fascism in the 40's.
They allowed women in combat roles in the 1940's, literally the most woke military on earth at the time.
On one hand, discrimination is bad. On the other hand, less people in the military is good.
Destroying the facade of rainbow imperialism would be a major victory for the left, and republicans are doing it for us
True, but I'd much rather rainbow imperialism die to progressive foreign powers, rather than regressive policies from within. Oh well.
Very much a "let them fight" thing. If it radicalizes a few more queer folk against imperialism, all the better.
Yes it ruins assimilation into the normative and oh suddenly a lot of combat experience pissed off people are looking for an explanation.
If it stopped at the military and other tools of empire, yeah. But I feel it's going to happen everywhere.
Yeah, Trump's made it pretty clear he's not friendly to trans people, and we make an easy target.
Yes. It'll not cripple the military, it'll just make it less diverse and prevent queer chuds from accessing the same opportunities that cishetallo chuds have
It'll not cripple the military
You're probably right, but I can hope. Maybe this combined with other recruitment negative policies will at least reduce their strength?
But recruitment is starting to climb back up, even though branches aren't meeting their quotas, so who knows.
Fuck the military but it's absolutely a bad sign because anything they do in the military reflects what they're going to do outside of it. Changes in the US Military almost always presage changes elsewhere in US society. It went that way with integration, gay and then trans acceptance - and now they're rolling the last one back.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
"...reflects a Marxist agenda"
Keep it up folks, just making marxism look cooler
On one hand less well armed gay people is bad. On the other, abolishing the US Navy is good
Eh, they've already been coming for other groups. Kinda bitter at all my fellow gay and trans friends that seemed a lot less progressive over the past year.
