    queerness should preclude military service for the hegemonic empire. if the USA were kurdistan, i’d consider a nuanced view. since we live under pax americana (whatever that’s worth), no one who is queer should be anywhere near it’s military.

      I mean that’s easy enough to say. However, a lot of trans people wouldn’t have had access to the medical needs for their transitions without having served in the military. Those benefits go a long way. Many would have had no other options to be able to pursue their transition.
