They just want trans people to die, not to die for their country.
magats be like:
In 2026: Rebel army is made of Non-Christians, People of Colour, Women, LGBT people.
Also magats: surprised pikachu face
You forgot a few more people
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.
When I say Catholic I mean genuenly Catholic, aka people who follow the pope over Orange Jesus. Example:
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
Trump’s probably going to go after their tax-exempt status, now.
Like the nazis before them the fascists of America do not like real Catholics or Protestants that acturally belive in god
I think you meant deepened… depends is what Trump wears..
Nothing against senile incontinence, but it’s not something our president should have
But he killed the Pope with his cringe aura.
Non anglo-saxons
So everyone? Ain't any Anglo Saxon around since that little old conquest of 1066
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
Thats covered in "nonwhite" (let's be honest though white is a meaningless word)
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.
Making easier to dodge the draft.
Careful though, you might dodge yourself right into a prison in El Salvador.
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).
The more people banned from the US military the better.
Unfortunately they made it so for a lot of people it's the only available way to escape poverty
With the enrollment going down, banning women and now this, they really don’t want a military.
Make the US military weak again.
This will turn into good news once they start the draft
Hopefully they won't already be in camps.
its simple, everyone can say they are trans to avoid the draft.
"An unprecedented degree of animus towards transgender people animates and permeates the ban: it is based on the shocking proposition that transgender people do not exist," the lawyers wrote.
Someone needs to hire new lawyers cause that’s not even being discussed.
That’s got nothing to do with this EO lol. It’s also not a law.
This isn't happening in a vacuum.
Yes, this is. This is about making people with gender dysphoria ineligible for military service, the same way people with many other conditions are.
It has nothing to do with pronouns. It has nothing to do with same sex attraction. It has nothing to do with whatever else you want to pretend it does.
Bull. Shit.
So why does it specifically talk about people with gender dysphoria?
You're gonna ignore all the other anti "dei" stuff being done? Pretend like this is just off in the corner all alone?
You're full of shit. We're done. I won't hit my head against a wall.
DEI has nothing to do with this. DEI is about putting people in roles/positions that they didn’t necessarily deserve (as simple a description as you can get for why people oppose it). ie promoting someone because they’re a minority over people who are better qualified.
This is about adding another exclusion to the list of conditions that exclude people from military service eligibility. DEI isn’t even remotely relevant here.
Good job with the name calling though. Really gets across how intelligent and well reasoned your arguments are.
First of all, DEI includes things like posting job offerings in spaces that are frequented by lower income or minority populations. It's rejection includes an assumption that the most qualified person for any given position is a white straight man.
People in this Admin have called the former secretary of defense a DEI hire. She was a Black General.
This admin has consistently called any minority a DEI hire and has tried to blame accidents on said "DEI" hires.
DEIs rejection does not include that assumption at all. It means that you think the best person for the job should get the job, not just the person who ticks the most diversity boxes. Policies like “50% of all board positions need to be women” assumes that 50% of the best people for the position are women, which isn’t the case a lot of the time, especially in male dominated industries.
If the best person for the position is a gay black womens then she should get the job. Likewise if a straight white male is the most qualified and best fit, he should get it. Merit wins.
Calling people a DEI hire has definitely been weaponised, but the fact that champions of dei see that as an insult kinda proves that DEI is what its opponents say it is - unfair.
This EO is nothing to do with DEI though, in any way.
I don't see it as an insult, it is used as one. Especially by this admin.
It's the idea that some is only there because of DEI and without it, their capabilities wouldn't have been enough. Which is wrong.
Before DEIA was implemented, minorities were often not hired, because of their background, even though they were the more capable candidate. And this admin is a perfect example, that "DEI hire"" is projection.
Is Hegseth more capable than his predecessor? Gods no. His signal escapades are enough to prove this.
Is RKJ more capable than his predecessor? Is anyone in this majority white, majority male admin better suited for their job than the more diverse admin before it? No. But still, that admin gets labeled as DEI Hires, not because anyone could prove that DEI prevented a more deserving candidate from filling that position, but because they belong to minorities.
