“I will be happy to see the bodies of dead women”
- least psychotic right wing nut
Oh, come on, don’t misquote him!
“Can’t wait for the war footage of the bodies of dead women strewn all over the battlefield.”
There you go. Much more normal!
Bet he is unhappy with homosexuals in the military. Hmmm curious on why he wants to protect them from the battlefield.
We must protect out prescious gays
Can’t risk depleting the strategic gay reserves.
ROFL I need to share this with everyone!
Yeah… keep attacking the decisions of the military… it’s not like you need their support for your upcoming regime.
I really don’t know if equal access to the front line is the kind of social progress we should be aiming for. It smells faintly like it, I’ll admit.
True equality is equal access to all areas, for better and worse.
Access to the means to project force is necessary for equality. Without it equality only lasts as long as those able to project force allow it. War is terrible, but when the Iranian revolution occurred a womens’ army would have likely been far more effective than the mass protests were.
Well, most military jobs are support regardless, I met plenty of weak men in the army while I was in. Women make great soldiers if you understand what the functionality of being a soldier is.
It’s not all spec ops and crazy missions, the majority of the military is planning and execution. No matter the make up of the platoon.
I’m sure it’s highly context-dependent. I’ve just never viewed the “equal access to exploitation” school of gender equality as quite the social victory others seem to.
I’m sure this guy thinks the women in Gaza deserve it, though.
Don’t tell them that the Russian army has had women fighting for it in their Great Patriotic War.
Or do tell them I guess.
Well that’s a “woke” commie country to them.
Because it was the Soviet Union.
But they do model their whole national self-image as the people “who defeated the Nazis”.
I guess nobody said fascists needed to be consistent.
Fascism is eternal cognitive dissonance.
“The enemy is strong and they can easily destroy our entire civilization, but we are stronger than their puny global cabal” is the basis of all of their rhetoric.
Good thing we have no history of killing women until this point! Never happens!
I guess that’s why war is so popular - we just famously never murder any women. Much like ordinary day to day life, really.
Sure is good no women are being murdered.
Just imagine the optics. Surely we would care. Like, a lot.
Notable that the erstwhile concern isn’t even for a person’s well being, it’s for optics.
They don’t give a shit about women, but it might hurt their fee-fees to see a sex object rendered unusable.
The YPJ is tougher than any fascist. And the philosophy behind them is something I agree with, women’s liberation is strongest when we demonstrate the capacity to project armed force.
The legacy of Scythia remains. We will live as equals, ideally peacefully.
And seriously the women’s armies of Syria have been an inspiration and source of awed respect since I was a teenager. I dream of a Middle East in which they may live in peace and equality.
Well… get some of that if you wish.
