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.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Oh wait this isn't the onion. Of course it isn't. I wonder what his is. He doesn't look bald at all.
In other words, Pete Hegseth introduces mandatory gender-affirming tests as part of servicemember health evaluations.
I just can’t. No one ever suspected that there were a group of people who could be so fucking brain dead and stupid that it would become some sort of superpower. Like the dumbest most inept motherfuckers. MAGA are pedophiles accomplices and idiots of the highest order.
I thought Idiocracy was supposed to be a movie
I fucking hate this comparison.
The government in Idiocracy actually tried. They were just idiots. The bad guy in that movie is stupidity.
When these comparisons started that wasn't even a fair comparison. And I mean like, it was common enough when W. was still in office, among the like 10 people who had seen it by that time.
We have actively malicious state actors who love that you're so willing to believe they're only stupid.
Also Mike Judge is terrified of poor people.
Care to clue in those of us who aren't celebrity watchers, and know nothing about Mike Judge?
Mike Judge is the creative mind behind Idiocracy, king of the hill, and office space. A core theme behind the first two is "poor people are stupid and crazy."
The theme of king of the hill is not poor people are stupid.
It's been a LONG time since I watched either of them, so I'll have to rewatch some with that perspective in mind. Seems a bit exaggerated to me, but I suppose it's possible. Thanks for explaining.
Just think of the IQ/reproduction sequence at the start and the kinds of people that were used to represent high and low IQ.
The problem with fucking idiots is that they’re always fucking other fucking idiots and creating more fucken fucking idiots!

They are rabbits. Incredibly stupid rabbits
~~Forcing~~ Heavily recommending gender affirming care.
He should worry more about the ICC investigating him...
All these old MAGAts and fuckfaces take testosterone supplements so fucken much. The old owner of the company I work at was one of these dudes. Its all about being s teenager forever.
That sounds like gender affirming care. They should practice what they preach.
Genuinely, it is gender affirming care. It's replacing sex hormones their body won't produce naturally, to counteract effects that are existentially devastating to their psyche.
They don't wanna say that low-T as an older man feels like gender dysphoria. But have a conversation with a trans guy and an old man about testosterone levels and masculinity and self-image, and you'll have almost the exact same complaint. "I just want to feel like the man I know I am inside."
As a not-old guy with low testosterone, I just have an intractable depression.
It sorta responds to antidepressants. It sorta responds to sunlight therapy. It sorta responds to keeping a handle on my diet and exercise.
Sometimes it’s worse, sometimes it’s better. But I’m almost always struggling with not having energy, being irritable, and feeling overwhelmed.
Going on testosterone was like “ooooh, that’s what that’s supposed to be like.”
They will stare deadpanned directly into your eyes and tell you its somehow not.
I don't see it that way. I see it as age denying care. They still want to be the "studs" they (thought) they were in high school. They're the same guys who wax nostalgically about their "glory days" when they were on the football team and how they "led the team to win the regionals" and they "coulda gone pro" but one of "those people" stole their scholarship.
Did they score 4 touchdowns in one game?
I'd much rather they were all shoe salesmen instead of running the Pentagon.

This guy has a micropenis, doesn't he?
Absolutely 1,000% without a doubt a 2.5in erect peen.
He seems to be obsessed with the purity of bodily fluids, just like Jack D. Ripper. Even looks a little like him.
You have to protect yourself that's why I only drink grain alcohol and rainwater.
You ever see a Russky drink tapwater, Mandrake?
This alcoholic power bottom wants to make sure all the men around him are as "manly" as possible.
Yes, let’s also pump them full of methamphetamine and we’ll create good little Sturmtruppens to do the füeher’s bidding.
They already do for special forces.
Walking right up to the line of mandatoring "gender hormone therapy"...
While the screenings will be mandatory for eligible service members, Hegseth said that any resulting treatment would remain voluntary. "If treatment is recommended, it's entirely your choice to receive testosterone replacement therapy," he said.
Prioritizing testosterone makes a lot of sense when you’re an anthropomorphic scrotum.
Pete KegSith is a pussy and a moron. His wife would have to piss into the cup for him to pass the test.
Antivax is okay but they gotta give up blood to appease their master.
...this is the onion, right? ..right?
Seriously thought it was The Onion
Bro loves manly men.
Why would this matter other than Hegseth wanting to have gay orgies?
