I agree with what he said I just don’t understand what that has to do with trans stuff. Don’t get me wrong I completely disagree with everything trans. I simply don’t understand how it makes them completely unfit for military service.
Yeppers, I crewed Hotel model Hueys in Europe.
Moral for one…
Gotta think about the unit over individual. Majority of people dont agree with the trans crap and special treatment they get cuz uppers dont want the backlash…politics
May I ask why didn’t you finish out the last 6 1/2 yrs and retire
Ft Lenardwood Mo. Delta company 1988 our washout rate about 20%
From what I understand they don’t get special treatment from most officers and as long as they leave their personal stuff out of it and are treated like their real sex I see no reason for a complete ban as long as they are physically and mentally fit.
You don’t think that the mental fitness of someone confused about the differences between males and females would be questionable, at best?
So you agree with banning people from service if they dont take required vaccinations then.
No, I don’t agree.
And, in case you’re curious, I also do not think stop signs and bunny rabbits are the same thing.
You caught that too!
I don’t believe in restricting military service for personal beliefs.
Very telling.
In the context of the discussion, your post suggests that you think the difference between a male and a female is what one “believes”. Further, it suggests that you think someone who “believes” they’re something they are not is of stable mind.
Per your statement, and in the context of this discussion, a person believing they are a duck is a stable, mentally fit individual.
Further, there’s a very long list of “personal beliefs” that would prohibit one from serving, some of which would have one escorted out in a shiny pair of bracelets.
I do not think anything of the sort. What I do think however is that there are some decent arguments for the whole trans things, while I do not believe them I see how others could and so not think that it should be held against them. And as for “personal beliefs”, you know what I meant.
BINGO! That was exactly MY understanding, based on what was written and my grasp of english.
Words matter.
Hmmm… but their both banning people from service for their personal beliefs are they not?
Right back at ya bud
You’re not so clever, yea?
Aside from the fact that I am not the one who posted that image, your post further cements the suggestion that you think the difference between a male and a female comes down to a “belief” and that a person who “believes” they are of the opposite sex from the genetic/biological makeup of their actual self is a mentally fit individual.
Stop straw manning dude. I’ve said multiple that I do not. What I have said is that I see how people could think that and I don’t think it makes them unfit for MS. Also you completely ignored my rebut and then changed the subject.
I am not straw manning. I did not ignore your rebuttal. I did not change the subject.
You’re making the argument that the banning of a transgender person is not only equivalent to, but the same as, banning them for a belief. You are wrong.
The gender of a person is not, has never been and will never be, based on a belief.
If someone believes they are something that they are clearly, scientifically, indisputably not, there is more than sufficient grounds to determine that individual is not of sound mind. An unstable person is unfit for service.
I can not help that you do not understand.
Edit to add: With this post, I am through with this particular discussion.
Oh, MAAAANNN…and I was making popcorn.
