Why ban only the nazi salute? ALL saluting in military and armed forces should be blackbanned

Banning the so-called 'nazi salute' is a bullshit move to appeal the woke brigade. All saluting should be banned including in all military and other armed forces.

In volunteer emergency services there's no such thing as there's no such thing as 'you must automatically respect the rank' and similar bs conditioning.

So what's then wrong with 'nazi salute' when other saluting is considered ok? Stuff that.

I don't think any salute should be banned, but based on this language, there's a fairly good chance that you're actually a Nazi.

@mksworld What does "woke" mean to you?

mksworld · 46-50, C

@BohemianBoo It's means racial prejudice and discrimination gone to the extremes, wrapped up with things like cancel culture , performative allyship activism, etc.

@mksworld So are Republicans "woke" for discrimination against trans people?

mksworld · 46-50, C

@BohemianBoo The whole business about trans people and the gender pronoun issue is completely woke. Why should those people get treated specially or differently to everyone else? FFS we're two women. we oscillate between being bi and lesbian, but we don't need to use any special pronouns or make people taking to our faces to refer to us in 3rd or 4th person terms. the lgbtiqa stuff is like BLM - being pushed soooooooo far out of context.

@mksworld Trans people are literally just asking that you treat them as the gender they identify as.

Republicans are calling for the eradication (genocide) of trans people.
"Woke" is about discrimination, but somehow Republicans aren't "woke."

This is why I can't take anyone who uses "woke" that way seriously. Y'all always turn out to either be Nazis or at least run defense for genocide.

@BohemianBoo We know trans, non-binary, etc. people and treat them as normal humans like everyone else. They don't want special treatment, but their predicament creates social problems because they don't fit in the 'you are either a man with man bits or a woman with woman bits' spec.

Ya know, it really is amazing how many anti-gay arguments are recycled and made into anti-trans arguments.
Conservatives said the same thing about gay marriage. They'd say things like "Look, adults can do what they want in private, but how are we supposed to explain to children that some men marry men?!" Basically, gay couples don't "fit in" with society. And of course, this was after the Right already lost the fight to keep homosexuality illegal.

Also, this is beside the point. Republicans want trans people dead. They're openly talking about eradicating "transgenderism."
