I'm tired of hearing about everyone and their fucking identity and their fucking cause. I don't care about any of it, and I don't want to have to pretend that I give a shit.
If you're trans-- more power to you, good luck with that. I don't want to have to buy the pin or wear a colored headband. I'm not going to march for you. If you're a close personal friend, I will fight to the death for you if I think anyone is mistreating you. But if the military doesn't want to put up with you-- I'm fine with that, too. We don't need to make every social institution all about accommodating everyone's special snowflake status.
As I said, political correctness shouldn't be a reason for trans folks to be allowed in the military. I think they probably should be allowed simply because I have yet to see a problem with it or hear a good argument against it.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
