    Hey, Pete, you know what happens when you decide to kick all those people out? You lose all the people running the cybersecurity division. Funny how that stuff works.

    Ffs… Beardos? Pete just can’t grow a beard because he’s not fucking man enough. How is it manly to engage in purely cosmetic rituals to make one look more child-like daily?

    Because when you are losing a war, the sort of facial hair you have really matters. Reality doesn’t back them up, so they have to go for crass appearance. Not “weak” my ass.

      From memory the facial hair things isn’t really about appearance but a way to kick poc out.

        The facial hair thing started before they really let African people into the army as a way to ensure a good gas mask seal during WW1. I think it’s a dumb rule enforced only for some amorphous idea of “discipline” nowadays, though.

    Yeah no trans people means your dumb ass just crippled military intelligence.

    Also aren’t special forces super into having beards? I’m glad if we’re cutting back on them, especially the seals, the psycho bastards. And of course he’s a weirdo himself

      It’s a dog whistle. Everyone who’s been in the army with an ethnically mixed population knows many black people (think West African mostly) have severe skin issues if they shave fully. I had two guys in my section (so I assume more in the company but I can’t recall) with exemptions and, of course, they were black.

      The military started banning beards in WWI because they don’t work with gas masks (RIP cool civil war beards). They were only allowed again during the global war on terror because American soldiers were basically jealous of Afghani fighters’ full beards. Type of shit that’s too goofy to make up

        Your first part is correct, but the beard permissions began with medical and religious waivers.

        As for how it became a thing beyond that, I’ve heard it began with nobody enforcing uniform regulations on the special forces.

      I’m pretty sure “beardos” is only there to rhyme with “weirdos”.

        He’s already cracked down on facial hair in the military. It’s been suspected It’s intentionally targeted against black men.

        I also suspect he’s got an issue with beards in general as well, even though I believe he would have used a word for black people instead of beardos if he thought he could get away with it.

    Does that mean he’s going to resign them? Was he using a classification of weirdo that is different to everybody else’s.
