The point of excluding categories of people from the military like this is to send the message that they are unworthy of citizenship, it is pure bigotry and the assumptions behind it are disproven by the honorable service of the people being targeted in the first place https://bsky.app/profile/brandonfriedman.bsky.social/post/3lj677qqmuc2x

If transgender service members don't voluntarily agree to resign, they'll be forced by the Defense Department to repay the signing bonuses they received at enlistment. Not only will they be fired, they'll be punished with thousands of dollars in debt. All for attempting to serve their country.

But then, racism/misogyny/queerphobia do tend to overwrite any impulse of loyalty to kin or country.
Height Standards
The minimum height for male soldiers is 60 inches (5 feet).
The maximum height is 80 inches (6 feet 8 inches).
Trump/Hegseth are RACISTS
aka fascism.

I blame MAGA for whatever is coming
BTW - Well Played 🇷🇺
This administration is beyond description!! If this is allowed to go on, what stops the next elected president from creating his/her own upheaval?
North America is doomed, the US has been purchased by the wealthiest scum on the planet. Trump and friends are dividing up the spoils as we speak, and there is nothing that can stop them. Nothing.
Don’t do their work for them by assuming fascist predicates like ‘military virtue is the purest form of citizenship’.
Cowardly + dumb as sh1t = hate
They're not allowed to join the military so they're cowards.
They're denied employment so they're lazy.
They're barred from education so they're stupid.
Communicate their hateful actions to the people they may come into contact with and inform & encourage "acts of defiance" towards them.
Massive information campaign.
And so forth.
Over and over.
And people who haven't served (like Trump) certain don't have the right to tell people that they can't.
