WTF?
Wouldn’t this put added stress on personnel? To see if they measure up?
Also sounds like he wants soldier bodies to be like machines.
Or is it about some sexuality bias?
The proposal sounds obscene to me.
From Meidas Touch - Hegseth COMPLETELY NEUTERED by Military Vets after BIZARRE Announcement https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHldJls5y6s A lot of interesting commentary about Hegseth’s announcement, especially its effect on Gen Z young men.
The solution will be steroids, which lead to angry behaviour and allows the soldiers to do heinous, unconscionable acts during their “'roid rage” phase. Addicted soldiers are the most loyal soldiers for the one who feeds them their juice. War. O, discordia!
I agree with eureka and just want to add that drug-funded or drug-spurred wars, large and small, have been around for at least two thousand years. One would like to think that we would be beyond that by now but perhaps not. If you’re interested in the topic, this article gives a general overview of modern times use: https://knowablemagazine.org/content/article/society/2019/war-and-drugs-together-forever
This one looks at drug use among Germanic warriors during Roman times: https://scienceinpoland.pl/en/news/news%2C105776%2Cbarbarian-warriors-took-stimulants-battle-says-new-research.html
Military has a long history of hardcore drugs. There is an infamous history of WWII militaries using amphetamines (esp. in Allied militaries) and methamphetamines (in Axis militaries, brand name Pervitin) as performance enhancing drugs. You want a sneak peak into what Discordia’s drug-dazed war has in store? Just ask Aimo Koivunen
sounds like a precursor to gender affirming care to me
fascist-leaning (small f) ideology has an obsession about their own unique concept of masculinity, including plenty of pseudo-science. One of the most striking cases is in food, where on the more extreme levels, infamous grifters (who are clearly lie about their own diet) pitch a cure-all “carnivore diet”, or soy avoidance (supposedly increases estrogen; it doesn’t), or raw milk drinking (I’ve heard a report that the NSN partake in this, along with other unlisted diet restriction). But on a lesser level, this filters down into a pseudo-scientific misinterpretation of proteins in fitness communities which has entered into our mainstream shopping experience.
Why Don’t Fascists Eat Vegetables? is a very insightful watch. (The downside is the whole deep-dive is 6 hours long, but even watching sections is insightful)
I also wouldn’t be too surprised if this is just posturing to the public, who may be concerned about of reports about the loosening fitness standards under previous regimes in a desperate attempt to try and boost falling military recruitment. But it’s also obviously related to fascistic ideas of traditional gender, and the scapegoating of not just trans people, but also cis people who just aren’t ‘masculine’ enough (yes, we know, they’re hypocrites, it’s obvious).
I am certain this won’t be abused and there will be no ill effects to worry about.
EDIT: The ole’ Secretary of War doesn’t seem too bothered by gender affirming care…for CIS men.
Gender affirming care 🌈
This is typical Republican projection. Hmm, my testosterone is low so I’m going to force everyone else to get tested before anyone finds out.
“normalise my dysfunction so I don’t feel shame”
which yea, but not like *this *ya mook.
Literally socialist gender-affirming care

It’s still off-topic and this is trolling, not genuine protestation as you say in your link. When you protest, have the gumption to say what you are protesting about not bring in some random info to sabotage the thread.
alright for you, I will delete, but no one else!
Well this has been an odd series of events. Also I wrote a whole book about those monkeys and had it published, out to print and it became a bestseller.
I am now being sued for all my millions for misleading a whole generation and causing leading monkey scientists to lose their minds and their jobs. Thanks a lot.
Please remove this nonsense or I will block you.
Alright for me? Anyone would have done the same. I am sure you would not like someone to sabotage/troll a serious post you put up.
You’ve been doing trolly actions to my posts for a while now. I am warning you now that if you do it again I will block you (or anyone else). Not happy with having to do this.
BTW, the Morgan Island monkeys live in Morgan Island, South Carolina, US not NSW. What game are you playing?
LOL so the random fact generator linked me to a source page but I didn’t read it and it turns out it’s just not there, lesson learned, I’ve updated it
A tad off-topic ikt?
That’s nonsensical. The post is under the ‘Overseas News’ community, not under Australian politics for example.
Anything to do with body image and enhancement is going to have an effect on young men, especially those who are attracted to the Manosphere and so on. Please check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHldJls5y6s

Is there anyone in Australia who gives a shit about Pete Hegehog?
Hegseth COMPLETELY NEUTERED by Military Vets after BIZARRE Announcement
Why would I watch this? I literally do not give a shit about America
Why? Because what happens in the US sooner or later comes here and hurts us too, e.g ON and its tactics influenced by MAGA, etc.
If you thought I was not in line with the community’s aim I would have been happy for you to tell me so. I don’t have a problem with withdrawing a post if necessary.

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh maybe
I know conservatives all over the world are pretty garbage and look to America but reading about the bad things America is doing got tiring for me 20 years ago after reading about the 20th school shooting they had that year
After a certain point I don’t care anymore, I want to read about my countries problems not theirs
If you thought I was not in line with the community’s aim I would have been happy for you to tell me so. I don’t have a problem with withdrawing a post if necessary.
I’m not a mod, I’m just an aussie bloke that heckles America/ns 😆
I’m more like this guy but I wouldn’t have the confidence to do this irl:
https://aussie.zone/post/33958899
It’s nothing personal 🙂
I do not believe you.
Twenty years ago in 2006 there weren’t twenty school shootings in the US, nor in the year before nor after. You are playing with numbers and manipulating language.
Please do not respond to my posts. If you do I will block you. I won’t respond to yours either.
I did not know that thanks.
@arbilp3@aussie.zone fact checked me and it turns out I have egg on my face, I asked for a fact and a source and then used the same thread for getting facts, and I checked out the first 3 facts and it was correct, but for some reason on the 4th and first fact I didn’t double check it decided to link to a source but … didn’t quote it and instead just made up a fact ._.
bitterly disappointed in Mistral when all I asked for was an australian fact sourced from a website, really not that hard to do :(
