    When there are fewer LGBT people in the military, then there will also be less resistance from within when the military is used to oppress that very same group. I suspect that might be a reason for the ban. Also I guess there’d be less chance for a coup, but I don’t know how likely that is to begin with.

      The military is all about indoctrination which is the polite word for “brainwashing”. Our trans friends in the armed forces are just as unlikely to stop stomping on necks as anyone else.

      Nah, this is just general hate toward the Ts (expect the Ls, Bs, Gs, Qs, and +s to follow).

        JD Vance is Catholic. he converted right around the time his political ambitions deepend. Leonard Leo (Federalist Society president) is Catholic, as are most of FedSoc leadership. Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh are Catholic.

        the deep power in the RNC is very conservative Catholic.

            Amy Coney Barrett is super fucking Catholic… Though I guess many of them are regretting that appointment given how she’s ruled in Trump’s cases recently

          I think you meant deepened… depends is what Trump wears…

          Nothing against senile incontinence, but it’s not something our president should have

          Kinda like how Trumps definitions of sex basically turned eveyone agender I expect them to accidentally ban eveyone from the military and then not follow their own rules

      Fuck it.

      Let’s ban all the liberals and queers and women and fems and educated, too. Then let’s get a draft going and set no minimum or maximum age. Let’s start making all our own equipment and you know let’s just not give them anything. Then let’s get into a war with China and not use drones or ai or tanks. Ohh noooooo, all the shitty people diiieedd. Sorry China, we take it back. Yeah, all those rules we changed, it didn’t work out. Oh well. NO MAGATS. VOTING TIME.

      As much as it pains me to see fellow queer folk get discriminated against, I think it’s for the better for all of humanity to have a weaker US military.
