No Trans In The Military Says Trump

[Thumpalumpacus]

As I said early on, I'm fine with any individual trans person who is competent-- so long as other special considerations need not be made.  The problem is that once you fully endorse ANY group, it implies that you are willing to take whatever measures you'd need to accommodate them: payment of hormone therapies, perhaps, special living accommodations, difficulty with relationships in the field, and so on.

The costs, as mentioned above, pale in comparison to the costs of Viagra therapy for heterosexual males ... but no one complains about those outlays, yourself included.

Seems like you're the snowflake in this thread, kid. Everyone else is talking, and you're throwing a hissyfit.

Yeah, I'm hysterical.

Of course you are. Here, a couple of posts back -- and, ironically, in the same goddamned post -- you posted this:

I'm actually having an emotional reaction right now, and it's this: FUCK OFFFFFFFFF!!!

[irrelevancies redacted]

We don't need to make every social institution all about accommodating everyone's special snowflake status.

Pretty hysterical to me. I mean, we've got ALL-CAPS, we've got exclamation points, we've got a long, drawn-out tail to the insult. And then we have you complaining about "snowflakes".

Tell me again how you're not being hysterical. No one cares if you're having an "emotional reaction". Get over yourself, and learn how to deal with people who don't share your little views.

But let me ask you-- why do you think Trump said this?  Is he just pandering to the right?

That's a small part of it, in my opinion. The larger part is that, I think, the announcement of the change in policy was used to try and turn the conversation from the investigation into Russian contacts. That's what I think.

Oh, the other thing I think when he does shit like this: here's your shovel -- keep digging.
