So, yes to Manosphere pseudoscience, but no gender affirming care for trans troops.

And i assume he'll personally be administering the extraction. Orally.

I'm lost for words... What a fucking lunatic.

What next? Issue Pervitin to US military personnel?

Just watch for Joe Rogan to talk it up

He's fallen off hasn't he? I just realized your comment is the first time I've seen his name in months

I think it's because he's started to cater less to the extremes.

Many of these big grifters are "distancing" themselves from MAGA because they don't want to be held accountable when the administration eventually changes.

Of course none of them have actually changed. They just want that paycheck at the end of the day

It does seem like that now that you mention it.

So... Free gender-affirming care for service members?

Socialist gender-affirming care

I saw an ad trying to get doctors to join the US Navy because, no joke, your patients will have free healthcare so you don't need to worry if they have insurance.

What stage of capitalism is that?

Your not supposed to be all jacked up on test your entire life you idiots.

I encourage all dumb fucking bastards to inject excess T into their dicks and further remind them that any cancer screening is for beta cucks.

Ah, totally normal activities for the people currently in charge...yikes. They are parroting this "Low T" bullshit that men with microphones have been yapping about for years now without strong evidence to support their claims. While it is true that some men do suffer from low testosterone, I wouldn't call it an epidemic. ROFL They sure have an unhealthy obsession with manifesting toxic masculinity all the time. It's not a good look.
