Supreme Court allows Trump to implement transgender military ban
The blanket ban, expanding on a similar policy Trump proposed in his first term, has been blocked nationwide by lower courts
If, at this point, any trans person wanted to risk their life for this country, they probably just banned the most loyal human beings in the world.
I just wanna lay down. I’m tired.
Please explain to me, why why would anyone want to join the us military?
The military is a jobs program that many people are eligible for, who might not be able to get work elsewhere. There's a reason that the military has many lower income and minority members, and why paying for a college education is such an important part of the compensation. If you have better options you should take those, but many don't.
The idea that the US has a volunteer military is mostly propaganda. This country does a lot economic coercion to drive recruitment.
Half the recruitment is deeply ingrained multi generational "patriotism" (nationalism), the other half is desperation; the lack of social programs in the US is by design, to draw people to the benefits they'll get from the military (education, healthcare, housing, etc).
