Has nothing to do with that. Are pregnant woman good for our country in combat? Do we know? Are they perhaps a liability?
Vast majority of jobs in the military are non-combat, you'd be surprised at how many service members spend their days in what is essentially an office environment. Even in an infantry Bn there's a HQ section that basically never goes to the field, and when they do it's just to work in a big temporary office tent/structure.

Judge me.
Whats going on right now, with the push to get women into combat arms is insane. Good men will die because some women think they have something to prove.

So we must just accept constant attacks on our values by the Left? That you get to determine what's relevant and acceptable to us?
Accept, values, the left. You are just spewing words that don't have anything to do with anything. American culture is the American public. And there are well over 300million of us. And we all get to choose what we like or don't like and what we praise or criticize. I grew up when hip-hop music was first introduced and the adults in my life and on tv hated it and criticized it heavily, didn't think it would last, blah, blah, blah. Did that stop me from listening to hip-hop music? Hell no. Imagine teenagers in the late 1980's or early 1990's whining about people attacking their "values" because some people didn't like rap music and criticized it a lot. Imagine your reaction to those whining teenagers pretending that someone criticizing hip-hop music was an attack on their values. This is the phony culture war bs that republicans are running with.

Anyway, I have no idea whose values are being attacked by the left because of Dr seuss or popular music or why anyone should care. Go enjoy whatever you like. It is easy. Unless one believes the left is ALL powerful and controls everything and will destroy you, who cares if they don't like your entertainment or values as you say.

Except every time we mention we don't like something you tell us Republicans don't care about anything except money, etc. You have your opinions about who Republicans are but don't allow Republicans to do the same. This is control freak stuff and in my opinion is typical of what the Left is trying to do, control all aspects of the culture. We must agree or get "cancelled."

It's either them or the draft. Remember is was your beloved President Nixon who ended the draft. And besides , Russian women did pretty good when it came to the task of killing Nazi's.
The Draft is not dead. It's just sleeping for the time being.

What are you talking about? Who cares if some people say republicans don't care about anything except money(something I don't believe), Who is stopping republicans from having opinions Again, I gave the example of liking hip hop music when it was first introduced into popular American culture, hip hop music was heavily criticized all in American culture. Imagine teenagers in the late 1980's early 1990's whining about people criticizing hip hop music as an attack on their values. This is the phony culture war bs that republicans are running with
Now did I care that people heavily criticized hip hop music? No because they had no ability to stop me from listening to the music. My point is enjoy whatever you want, no one can stop you, unless you believe in the insane conspiracy of an all powerful left that controls everything and is out to destroy you.
 

It will be fine

They never stopped criticizing hip hop. They cried about WAP for months. Ben Shapiro has hissy fits about rap lyrics all the time. Nobody pretends their complaints matter.

I know, but hip hop right now is youth culture. Almost all American children/teen listen to hip hop music. It's commercially dominate. But back in the late 1980's, hip hop music was the underdog, the music industry hated it, radio hated it, tv hated it, advertisers hated it, my parents both disliked rap music, teachers I liked hated hip hop music, plus in the wider American culture it was heavily criticized, And yet the idea of whining as a fan of hip hop music and forming an identity around that criticism as an attack against our values never crossed our minds. It was like ok they don't like, but we do like it. But republicans are running this sham that if what they like is criticized, that's someone attacking their values or silencing them. republicans really are pretending that they can't have an opinion or can't like dr seuss books because some other people criticize their opinions or dr seuss books. Smh. It's bizarre phony culture war bs.

That is all delusional nonsense.
Rap and hip hop were commercialized from the very beginning. It was sold as counter culture to stupid people who wanted to believe they were unique. They were just sheep.

Carry on.
Baaaaahhhh!
