They say I'm some kind of awful bigot that hates them and wants them all rounded up in camps. Completely wrong. I'm just not interested in denying objective, observable reality in order to accommodate their subjective self-perception.

@roseveniceallan How can a 11 year old boy forget that he is a boy? Wouldn't his penis and gonads still be his "frame of reference"?

Cass now says Jo “is not a specific case, but represents a group of similar children”, some who are secretly transed by parents even younger than 2.5yrs, “and do not come to medical attention until much later as puberty looms.” This should be criminalised.

@American1068 Under the new policy there won't be any shave chits issued for PFB sufferers. Troops will have one year to resolve the issue- which they can't due to genetics- and then will be medically separated. The edict is prejudicial on its face and will lead to disparate action lawsuits.

@American1068 The no beards for generations statement is incorrect. Beards were allowed in the USN until 1983. The Admiral that banned them used the mask excuse as justification which was absurd since shipboard DCs can also use PAPR hoods. Tattoos have been allowed since the early 2000s.

Just FYI: the last chemical attack on a ship was in 1943 and was largely accidental. Any adversary breaching LOAC to use chemical munitions in the present day isn't going to limit themselves to respiratory agents- they'd deploy neurotoxins no mask can inhibit or stop.

@amycoplan @halbritz @snlyngaas Spoken like a civilian…. In the event of a chemical attack a service member cannot effectively seal a gas mask or respirator. This is but one of several reasons you should have a clean shaven face.

Transgenderism is an uncontrolled society-scaled experiment in conformity and obedience: a test of how far you can make people parrot absurdities, inflict cruelties, collude with unrealities, and ostracize and punish people for things they do not themselves believe. It is a test of whether the moral self-abasements and routine betrayals that occurred in the Soviet Bloc with its secret police and political prisons and armies of informants could be replicated in liberal, democratic, and pluralistic societies that lacked this formal apparatus of repression: whether minor rewards and punishments could force people to punish people for stating the most self-evident of all truths and inspire them to cheer on the chemical castration and dismemberment of their own children. It is a test of whether civil liberties organization could be twisted into instruments of state repression and human rights groups instruments of defamation and violence against women. It is a test that most of the Western world is failing.

I think we would be surprised at how many people would quietly start to come out in support, if they were given “permission” by the public figures they rely on to open Overton Windows for them. That is pathetic, cowardly, lazy, & self-interested, because they are often consumed with how they appear to the people around them, rather than forming their own opinions & standing by their own beliefs, but it is the reality of many of our fellow citizens. If they feel they have “permission” to support initiatives that protect the rights & dignity of females, I think the minority of vocal, unreasonable & zealous lunatics who’ve pushed this madness on us would start be increasingly marginalized, finding themselves with less power to shape the public discourse & public consciousness over the trans issue. I have myself experienced a few people who quietly, discreetly told me they agree with me that women & girls should have their own sports & spaces, but they would never tell other people. It was only after I experienced social punishment for expressing my opinions that they briefly mumbled they “kind of agreed.” People are cowards. They are afraid to form & stand by their own beliefs because they value social standing more than personal autonomy & the integrity that comes with being principled; more comfortable instead with social consensus & being included in the group. But, if the conversation shifts publicly, lead by people who are safer to express public opinions, the tide will change.

@American1068 @amycoplan @halbritz @snlyngaas There are CBRN countermeasures that don't require facial seal on a respirator. Here's another question: Why is it that pretty much all other modern navies allow sailors to grow beards? What do they know that Hegseth doesn't?

@darkst @amycoplan @halbritz @snlyngaas That’s a nonsense question. When was the last time we faced a chemical attack period. What matters is it’s possible. You practice and prepare for it, you cannot properly seal a mask with a beard. Respirators as well when fire fighting may be compromised with a beard.

Amid the tenuous situation between the US and Iran in recent weeks, Pete Hegseth boarded a US Navy ship for what was supposed to be a routine visit with sailors. The visit was marred by facial hair, @snlyngaas reports. Shortly after the visit, Pentagon officials held a series of meetings in which they told subordinates that Hegseth was closely monitoring agencies’ progress on the beard policy and other workplace changes: cnn.com/2026/07/10/pol…

Yesterday, at a meeting of the Global Foresight Council in Paris, we discussed security. War has changed dramatically over the past five years. At the start of the full-scale invasion, I refused to evacuate and remained in Kyiv, which the Russians were trying to encircle. Back then, the war took the form of a column of Russian tanks storming my city. But today, it’s a completely different war. It’s a war of unmanned vehicles, the use of AI, massive drone attacks, complete battlefield transparency, and rapid-fire long-range weapons. All the military experience of the last century is simply irrelevant. Today, it’s not just military power that takes center stage, but a society’s capacity for resistance. You can have modern equipment and weapons, but if the country lacks people willing to defend it, that won’t help you much. Likewise, if the people on the home front are unable to withstand the onslaught of war, even the most experienced army cannot hold back the enemy without support from the home front. This winter, with temperatures at minus 25 degrees, millions of people in Ukraine lived without heat, electricity, or water. It’s hard for me to convey just how difficult it was. But all the banks were open, parliament held sessions, classes took place in schools, and hospitals performed surgeries. This is what the world calls Ukrainian resilience. But in reality, this is “total defense” itself. When a simple action becomes an act of resistance. People matter. Without working with people - those who take their freedom and security for granted - neither a powerful economy, nor military potential, nor even nuclear weapons will save developed democracies. Because if you are rich and weak, in a world where the international system of peace and security is dysfunctional, you will be plundered. And I see almost no frank discussion of this in developed democracies. Only a few countries stand as rare exceptions. In the rest, a psychological mechanism of denial dominates - the idea that “we are unique, so something like that simply cannot happen to us.”

Humanists, ACLU, SPLC as well. Every single former civil rights org is now laser focused on making people who say that men can't get pregnant out to be Nazis.

Do you have any idea, @chiaracapraro, how much damage you and your colleagues have done to the reputation of what was once a globally respected organization, dedicated to free speech and support for prisoners of conscience? It’s unforgivable.
