@TheRedPike as TRT comes with significant risks and trade offs, these are best weighed carefully case by case between each individual and their pcp and or specialist. Hegseth's announcement comes off as posturing and superficial. I call into question how well it serves men individually and collectively, service Readiness and performance, cost/benefit, and Masculinity in general.
So what is the problem? The Alphalfa Male appeal should be obvious enough to this community... @Typo name the utility of this plan, whether improvement to Combat Readiness, fiscal cost/benefit, or quantifiable metric of your choosing. "You just hate President/Administration " amounts to a zero thought and effort pivot attempt fit for normie discourse.
@MentORPHEUS From your source:
Order does not mandate treatment for low testosterone levels Medical guidelines say men with low testosterone do not need treatment unless they show symptoms
So what is the problem?
@MentORPHEUS Yeah, I was done at "dog hating"
@MentORPHEUS You would be astounded by how the air force teaches their pilots....
@MentORPHEUS The IDF has been at a near constant state of war for years now. They have reached exhaustion and if they don't slow down it is going to get much, much worse for them. Not shedding any tears about that. I have had it with their shit.
What we are doing to Iran is what we did to Iraq in the first gulf war. I fought that one. Even did some fragging for the air campaign. Iraq actually had a better track record with their missiles that Iran is having now, keeping a pretty good tempo until about this point. It tied up almost half of the non-combat support air forces. Iran was able to keep that tempo up for about five days. Now it is just random shit they pop off when they can. In return their country is literally being deconstructed. Most people that haven't participated in such a campaign have no idea of how destructive it is. Fifty years of building up an industrial capacity while under sanctions, quite a feat, will be gone by the end of the week. So they have some choices to make.
Read More@TheRedPike The Israeli land grabbers, have gotten their asses kicked by Hezbollah over the past week. 70+ merkava tanks destroyed, many by Kornet missiles. (Y'all know who makes those, RIGHT?) Meanwhile, many of the US bases around the Persian Gulf region have gotten damaged to the point of "Practically uninhabitable. " The personnel have gotten "reassigned to remote work duty " meaning making local hotels etc into legitimate military targets. We are currently speed running the end of American military and economic hegemony. Permitting Israel's tentacles to grasp control of our political and media systems a primary cause of all this.
Was a good run for a long time, but things aren't going back to what they were, no matter what transpires now.
