Looks like that mysterious meeting where Hegseth called in a bunch of generals was to tell them to stop being so woke.
Also Hegseth apparently wants to relax restrictions on hazing and harassment. Hey I’ve got an idea. The military continues to fail its recruitment quotas, let’s raise the physical requirements and foster a more toxic work environment. Hopefully this will result in a more dysfunctional US military and fewer war crimes in the name of imperialism
Death to America
The secretary of war is saying they should deploy the army against the civilian population because of an “invasion from within”, and proposes mechanism by which he can remove dissenters within the armed forces, and openly suggests preparing the armed forces to do battle by first killing civilians
I don’t quite find this as funny as you guys I guess. The people with the nukes are dangerous, unreliable and untethered to reality.
I do wonder how much of this is a reaction to the embarrassment that was the military parade, and how much is hegseth playing Göring
I agree, we can make fun of their idiocy, but… this some Jakarta Method shit.
It’s important to recognize the incredibly small number of coin tosses we are from rivers of blood and bodies.
I make in fun of it to cope but yeah shit’s not looking good. The boomerang is arcing back to the thrower.
If I don’t laugh, I am going to scream.
Anyone on the left has known about the possibility of violent repression. This isn’t anything new or unexpected. You hold no lever of power, you can’t stop this anyway. Might as well laugh.
I wonder why exactly they’re building up so many mechanisms of repression so quickly, what this is in preparation for. A lot of users are saying fascism, which I think is basically going to be forcing the maximum amount of capital possible out of labor - austerity, cruelty, violence… I fear they’ll make nazi labor camps look like a rehearsal
Not laughing but excited to see the inventible and necessary accelerated.
The next phase in the Chud Civil War.
Clean Shaven Nazis v. Bearded “Norse Mythology” Enjoyers
Ooooh christofasch vs Thule, I wonder which sides o9a and ‘played too much hoi’ types fall in with!
otters vs bears, you say?
No, the Nazis can’t be the bears.
Us commies are the bears!
Because, well, Hexbear, sure, but also, the Soviet Bear! And the way China is always represented as a panda. Usually a very huggable panda. If anyone in this mess is huggable and fluffy, it’s the left.
Great, now I want a 🐼 hug. Or just a hug from a comrade wearing something fluffy. Any of you hexagonal bears want a hug?
All this hatred of “wokeness”
What is with the hatred for manners? Like why is there such a strong revolt against being a nice guy?
You could say I’m asking: What happened to civility?
They like to rally against wokeness because it’s ill-defined and nebulous and yet every single chud seems to know what it refers to. It can be anything. I’m remembering the other week when asked what prompted Trump to return the DoD’s name to the Department of War, he claimed the military “went woke” after WW2.
Chuds use the term woke how libs use the term authoritarian. It means bad thing.
These chuds hate civility because it requires them to actually consider other people around them instead of being able to say or do whatever racist or ridiculous thing that pops into their little crank shacks without consequence to themselves. It’s just liberalism coming to its inevitable conclusion.
Civility@hexbear.net vanished when we needed them the most
What is with the hatred for manners? Like why is there such a strong revolt against being a nice guy?
There was a pretty strong reaction against marriage equality/trans acceptance in the u.s. The whole Alpha Male shit started then and only grew more and more toxic as time went on. amerikan/western masculinity was never great but got much worse when marriage equality happened. Add in the fact that people never really recovered from 2008 and thats only getting worse, you got a recipe for classic fascism. The weirmar republic was tolerant , had a vibrant LGBTQ scene, the sexual Institute (that the nazis burned all the books) etc etc and then came the extreme reaction. Capital and the cishet nuclear family are inseparable it seems.
“Woke” doesn’t mean “manners”, and it’s really depressing that an AAVE term that used to mean something to us has been bastardized to this extent. The original context was that “woke” meant being “aware” of your place in society as a Black person. It meant that you understood that this place was not meant for you, that you are a colonized person living in a settler colony. It was the opposite of “sleep”, which commonly means unaware or not conscious, another word that was interchangeable with woke.
It was white liberals who took the term that was popular amongst us and made it into a joke by claiming to be woke while engaging in performative anti-racism. The chuds caught onto this, and eventually it became a pejorative for things that chuds don’t like, and apparently “civility” now.
They used to just say “politically correct” in a condescending manner, but that has too many syllables.
The military continues to fail its recruitment quotas, let’s raise the physical requirements and foster a more toxic work environment. Hopefully this will result in a more dysfunctional US military and fewer war crimes in the name of imperialism
And hopefully this results in more rank n file soldiers fragging their commanders
RETVRN TO TRADITION guys, but it’s for fragging butter bar lieutenants
I am completely living for Trump’s rambling and “there’s two n-words, and you can’t use either of them” regarding nuclear subs. The man’s brain is 70% gazpacho, what is this timeline?
This was far less ominous than I expected. I expected some declaration of war or that they need to be prepping hard for war.
I expected a purge. This is unexpectedly the funniest shit I’ve read all week!
Imagining Trump doing the Saddam thing where he reads off a list of purged individuals while they’re all in the audience.
Honestly, that’s bloody hilarious no matter who does it. For different reasons, for sure, but funny in almost every case.
yeah, I can’t believe that I’m saying that Mr Hegseth pleasantly surprised me
I expected a loyalty oath.
There kind of was, there was a threat of fall in line or get fired
This is clearly setting that up though.
this can’t be the sole purpose for this gathering, right? this must be a cover for some closed door types of meetings, right? if not, then America continues to surprise me at how stupid it really is
Another one of those moments where it’s so dumb we all expect there to be an alterior motive
Definitely nefarious shit going on in the background
President Donald Trump is proposing using American cities as training grounds for the armed forces. He’s suggesting U.S. military might be deployed against what he describes as the “invasion from within.”
Sounds pretty fuckin’ ominous to me.
woops i did not see that
Well, he also told a room full of seniors that have been at a desk for years that he was bringing back fitness requirements for generals lmao.
If that is anything and isnt just stopped for being stupid it will be selectively used against any senior officer who doesn’t fall in line.
critical support to herr hegseth for defeating the army of the great colonial empire, i guess
This might be a distraction, I just read that another big fleet of tankers have flown to the Middle East (flight data tracking). The last time a big fleet of US tankers flew to the Middle East was preparation for the recent bombing of Iran.
edit: yesterday Netanyahu called the Qatar PM to apologize for the recent bombing of Doha, and now a huge fleet of US tankers (which means fighters and bombers are also heading there) are assembling in Qatar US airbase. Hope Iran is better prepared this time around to protect their generals and scientists, and ffs stop using Western mobile devices…
It’s probably a distraction for hegseth since he lost a naval battle with ansarallah, notably without a navy. Gotta keep him busy while the next military action gets planned by the cabinet
Sources pls.
Make America Frag again 😎
Alas, probably more at the ‘do pushups’ part than the ‘hunt US citizens’ part, but what I imagine is going through the head of every general etc. that got forced to travel around the world for this: https://youtu.be/HS0eIBb6em4
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Whatever man, shit’s boring, where’s the pizza hut at??
I always thought the US government and military was pathetic but wow they really went full pathetic
We are a clown country run by clowns 🤡

How much pizza did the Department of War order this time?
