Tired of all these unfuckable troops in my military. I demand everyone have an ass I can bounce a quarter off of.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Dude, I'm eating. I got soup coming out of my nostrils thank you very much.
Control your humor. Who don't know how it can affect others.
I'm sorry, I'll get you a napkin.
His nickname is Twinky Pete. He likes his twinks.
I honestly hope Nazis continue to fuck with military personnel. These are volunteers trained to shoot a rifle and they're supposedly willing to kill or be killed to defend our freedoms.
For the love of god please open up multiple fronts in the war on America.

Rude of Pete to expect soldiers to stay lean without the ozempic and cocaine he uses to stay trim.
You think the US military doesn't have access to cocaine?
My brother... nothing would get done without the lines our top brass is railing.
The recruiting crisis in the US military is pretty bad.
The funniest example is 24M$ the national guard spent in 2012 on recruiting at nascar. This generated 24,800 prospective recruits. ~$1000 per interested recruit. Not bad. Of those, 20 were eligible to join. 99.92% unfit for service. Of those 20, all declined to join. There's no evidence that the 88M$ spent on nascar between 2011-2013 generated a single recruit.
This is part of why the exclusion of trans folks, women and others from the military is such an own goal for the fascists. Any potential recruiting pool that's closed hastens the decline of our imperial supremacy.
We need to remember the fact that those currently in power don’t want things to work or be fixed. They’re actively breaking everything that they can get their hands on, for their foreign dictator handlers.
Also if there was a draft they'd have to put me in jail or I'd leg it to canada. This has come up in conversation before and people are like "Erm nuh uh you'd totally go" like no bro you'll actually die to an IED in something-istan.
is such an own goal for the fascists
I'm reminded of the bit from ur-fascism about how they are incapable of evaluating the world.
They are stupid people living in an emotional fantasy.
The recruiting crisis in the US military is pretty bad.
The largest standing military (outside of an active war) in the world has a recruiting crisis?
Yes, the military is overextended and “undermanned” in critical areas. I know for certain we are short about 2000 pilots and 3500 air traffic controllers in the USAF, but every branch and complex job is hurting for qualified people.
hurting for qualified people.
I'm sure having a completely unqualified commander in chief and secretary of defense will totally help recruiting...
/s, if it wasn't obvious
This was actually the first time in about 8 years they made recruiting goals. The only issue is they had an abundance for the lower end jobs and much less for the higher intelect enlisted jobs. I think the one exception is the Marines, they usually make their metrics.
Just wait for the takeover of Tik Tok to happen.
It'll be 24/7 military recruitment propaganda.

Ooh, ooh...do the Commander in Chief next. He's the fattest one of all.

Being fat doesn't reduce a leader's ability to manage logistics, define tactics and strategy, build confidence in leadership or use technology. This focus on physical capabilities while we watch drones and robots take over modern warfare is insane. This incompetence will remove highly skilled soldiers and replace them with those less capable of modern warfare, and likely less capable of using new technologies. The people who are removed will go somewhere and bring the value of that skillset with them, empowering someone or something other than the US military. This administration's obsession with loyalty and obedience over competence and independent thinking will weaken America and create opportunities for adversaries to exploit.
Reverting to the values of a former age is a death sentence for the future. The world has changed and if America refuses to keep up with those changes, it will only hasten the fall.
If he wouldn’t swipe right on his Grindr you’re gone
I appreciate the joke, but there’s no swiping in Grindr, you just get to be a perv to whoever you like. It’s great.
Better to say “if he wouldn’t tap you” or “😈 you”.
Thanks for the info.
Are these the guys that we see on the memes mocking right wing soldiers?
Yep, these fascists are obsessed with social media and those images got a lot of traction
'Fat' soldiers are fired. Meanwhile, ICE is expanding their already burgeoning Meal Team Six battalions.
At least the newly unemployed soldiers will have a nice well-paying paramilitary to join, so they can keep supporting their wives and their wives' boyfriends.

There goes the cyber security division.
We lost cybersecurity when we fired all the Trans Baddies.
Now we're just jettisoning everyone with a background in logistics and engineering
Pentagon Pete is a ridiculous and unnecessary nickname.
Secretary Shitface, please.
