When they first started making us use the government card, Amn Biff used his card to pull out cash at the library.  Red Flags as a mx dude were a shit show lol.  There was no OEF/OIF (or DEI lol) only drunken shenanigans.

The left in action. An alleged top law school, has a bunch of student numbnuts who can’t even hear any rational ideas without going full retard. The videos show how insane the new left is.
 

But things are getting better here in this country with a strong marketplace of ideas shared and then defended or dismantled based on merit /s.

“Once people transition and become their true selves, there’s not a mental block,” she said. “With that they become exceptional. They soar above everyone else. They become absolute rock stars. They become an even better, stronger, faster, more intellectual performer than they previously were.”

This dude is out here thinking that cutting off your dick or attempting to grow one makes you a super saiyan or something. I’ve heard that smoking PCP (and HGH/TRT) also makes you stronger and faster…when do we normalize that for our military members?

JFC.  That is rough to read.  The article was even worse.  I honestly believe that transgenders have a mental disorder and they do not belong in the military.  I treat them with respect as I would anyone with a disorder, but I certainly would not want one serving with me.  Thankfully I don't have to worry about that anymore.

Here's a question for the group.  I'll put an immediate disclaimer, I'm in Alabama, but I work with a lot of retired military from all over the country.  There is not one person in our directorate that I've ever heard champion the transgender and other woke movements.  Even the recent college grad females say it is ridiculous.  We have a few very liberal folks in the office, and every one I've talked to agree that it is indeed a mental disorder.  And these are the hard core mask up, shut 'er down, get your shots during covid and Jan 6 was an insurrection folks.  So my question is - is the transgender thing really affecting all that much in most peoples' day to day or is it another example of an extremely radical minority having an unbalanced voice that generates a bunch of attention but doesn't really affect most people?

Again, we’re letting the leftist lunatics run the asylum. People with serious mental/psychological health issues need help, and until they stabilize, don’t need to serve in the military (maybe in finance or some other backend support role). It should be an immediate disqualification for any role once they start chopping off body parts.

From the bill itself: “(A) Individuals may serve in the Armed Forces if they have been stable for 36 consecutive months in their biological sex prior to accession.”

Just like Trump’s EO, the bill does not ban transgenders from serving in the military. It prohibits “transitioning” individuals from serving if they are undergoing medical treatment as part of the process. 

Pretty reasonable law considering that part of being in the military is being medically ready to deploy. But as usual the critics misconstrue facts in order to incite fear and dissension. 

But hey our service chiefs say nothing to worry about regarding work policies!! All is good.

The wording is confusing. Biological sex is fixed and unchangeable, even the lunatics still admit that. So is this saying that trans people who revert back to their actual biological sex?

[TreeA10]

There's still that whole suicide ideation rate that far exceeds the normal population so you've got that to deal with even after the 3 year wait.

Yeah but to be fair lets not pretend the DoD cares one iota about that. Like.... I will give you a lot of this is nonsense, but lets not pretend that suicide ideation in troops is something the DoD views as a problem.

I read it as fixed in their “new” gender, or stable in their original gender…at least that’s how it was applied during the Trump Era rule. 

[Guardian]

A 40% suicidality (sp?) rate. I guess we as a military are ok with that.

A sad example of someone who appeared to be happy and literally put in front of the public to celebrate their authenticity but it wasn't enough to overcome mental challenges.

A man (yes an effin’ MAN) willingly remove his junk, sooner or later that act is gonna hit home. Truly sad that some decide to take this path.

True.  And this does nothing to improve or sustain our ability to kill people or break their stuff but that isn't the priory of those in charge.

You know what's odd about the "Nordic countries are happier surveys?" Their suicide rate is really high among developed countries. Not Japan high but higher than the rest of Western Europe and the US. Fucking odd they would do that because they're so happy......
