So Called Macho Men Who Do Not Want to Join the Military

[erpowers]

After seeing Matt Walsh's most recent comments I decided to google him. I looked at his Wikipedia page and it turns out he is one of those men who love to point out how the U.S. military is so weak but, seem to have never been in the military. I find it interesting that a number of the Conservative men like Walsh, Ben Shaprio, Steven Crowder, and Ben Domenech who scream the loudest about the military and men being weak have never been in the military.

1. I imagine this is yet one more example of GOP projection.

They have questions about their own "masculinity" and so project their doubts onto others.

Seems to happen all the time with these folk.

3. "I'm not a sissy, you're a sissy."

[thucythucy]

4. Precisely.

[onecaliberal]

2. They're chicken shit cowards.

[TheBlackAdder]

21. They're just Po before they realize the strength of the Dragon Warrior.

The first 20 seconds describes them.

5. I've been hoping Kyle Rittenhouse would try and join up. Not much chance of that. n/t

7. Couldn't pass the psychological exam...

[SalamanderSleeps]

18. The recruiting psych exam is pretty much a checkbox kind of thing.

Warm? Yes [x] No [ ] If yes advance to the next station.

However, I would think that like many other Rambo wannabees at Basic Training he would lose control of his shit as he took of his mask in the gas chamber.

Psych evaluation over.

8. Oh, this thread needs a little something...

[UTUSN]

9. & do the Thank-you-for-your-service thing

[UTUSN]

14. Plus the rich boys paid for substitutes (thank you for MY service)

[czarjak]

10. Suckers and losers?

[Aristus]

11. I'm an ACTUAL veteran.

And every time the military opens up to transgender people, or opens combat positions to women, or makes a shaving exception for Sikh soldiers, I applaud and cheer. Our diversity is our strength. I've got nothing but contempt for assholes who talk tough but don't have the stones to serve.

[TomSlick]

20. Hooah - says this Army retiree.

Someone who has never served has no basis from which to speak about the military culture.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

25. Ooh Rah.

This retired Marine agrees with you, the only combat they've experienced is video game, like Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, etc, where, when your character dies, you just push the reset button.

I suspect that the first round fired in their direction would send them back to mommy's house with a load in their britches and crying.

[Skittles]

12. yup

you didn't serve so sit down and STFU

[Rebl2]

13. +1000

[Traildogbob]

15. But isn't

Tucker Carlson a heavily decorated veteran of war????? I mean he tans his ball and preaches masculinity every night. (Do I need a sarcasm emoji here)
I just asking the question.

[kimbutgar]

16. My raging liberal husband who served in Navy In The 80's when I met him told me how

The boot camp training of 4 moths was brutal. Walsh, Shapiro, crowder and Domenech( John McCain’s son in law) are pussies.

[niyad]

19. Really? A gender slur as a synonym for cowardice?

[kimbutgar]

29. Pussies are both male and female

[niyad]

32. No, that is a gender slur for cowardice.

[samsingh]

17. republicans are cowards and traitors. Also they will never fight enemies of America because

that's what they are.

22. Tom DeLay and Dan Quayle military service

Tom DeLay and Dan Quayle military service

He and Quayle, DeLay explained to the assembled media in New Orleans, were victims of an unusual phenomenon back in the days of the undeclared Southeast Asian war. So many minority youths had volunteered for the well-paying military positions to escape poverty and the ghetto that there was literally no room for patriotic folks like himself. Satisfied with the pronouncement, which dumbfounded more than a few of his listeners who had lived the sixties, DeLay marched off to the convention.

[okaawhatever]

34. DeLay didn't even serve the 3-5 he was sentenced to. nt

[Scalded Nun]

23. Vet here as well (disabled at that). I do not want these losers in our military.

They'd shit their pants the first time the balloon went up.

[vercetti2021]

24. Matt Walsh is scared of transwomen

You think that lil wussy would survive a day in bootcamp? Lmao these lil flaky pasty ass so called conservative men like him, Crowder, Shapiro are all spineless tools.

They are scared of me lol a trans woman because I decided to be me. These boys would shit and piss themselves in combat

[Genki Hikari]

30. These idiots would have washed out of USAF basic ca 1980s

And that was a fricking day camp compared to the other branches' basic training. I know. I was there, and trying not to laugh my head off at how easy it was.

Or maybe it wasn't so bad to me because a) I was in my mid-20s when I joined and b) I'd already endured living with my mother. The woman who had cleaning standards so exact that we had to use a toothbrush to clean the floors where the tile met the baseboards, and wash out the washer and dryer EVERY LOAD. Had to scrub the lint filter after cleaning it out, too.

Even the USAF wasn't that damned picky or anal.

[Warpy]

26. Frat boy hazing was macho enough for them, and the only reason

they survived that much was that they were planning to do worse to the next crop of pledges.

They would wash out of basic very quickly. People are mean to them in basic and they can't be mean back.

[Genki Hikari]

31. And, worse to have a woman or brown TI in their faces

Getting on their case over whatever.

They'd fall apart over that.

The rare occasions when I got the yelling in my face, I did the same thing I did with my mother: I zoned out to a happy place inside my head, and didn't let it get to me. Don't argue, don't say anything unless you must, just let them rant until they tire themselves out. Oh, you're still yelling? Okay, whatever. Keep yelling. Yawn.

My refusal to engage drove my mom nuts, but the military praised me for keeping my cool, even when I was getting smacked around, verbally. I didn't have the heart to tell them that, after my mother, they were child's play.

[Warpy]

33. I can well imagine those macho twits stomping off in angry tears

and maybe some of them did. It's gnawed at them for years, so they go out and LARP.

I, too, had a mother, and yes, it's great fun watching them try to push all the buttons you've disconnected. It came in handy for me, too.

[Hassler]

28. The Republican chickenhawk will never go extinct. Just ask asshole Charles Koch.
