¿Que?

Edit:  The Googles informed me of a white supremacist soldier that was Court-Martialed.  As bad as that and racism are, there are far more disgusting people in Fayettenam.  Unfaithful military wives cauterizing people's b-holes shut, Army officers having knife fights on base during Black Friday, etc..

When I was there, bath salts and spice were the rage.  I saw a 125 lb Airman successfully throw a 245 lb MP 5 feet in the air in an attempt to escape going to jail.

Kinky!!!

Speaking of Ft. Bragg, or whatever it's called now, our own Ft. Rucker just changed it's name to something like, Ft. Novasel, or some shit.

I've lived down here for almost 40 years.  Ft. Rucker has been an integral part of the community since long before I got here.  I've never given a thought, or even half a shit, as to who "Rucker" was.  Who got offended?

Confederate General (Rucker) vs MOH recipient (Novosel).  The same folks ripping down statues were probably offended, but as a "mostly conservative" patriot, I would personally let it be named after the Hero instead, too.  Any Medal of Honor recipient having a base named after them is justified in my unimportant opinion.  Just waiting on Levitow AFB.

I have tried numerous times to contact GF via seance, to no avail. I want to let him know that I actually do miss him. And that I had no idea about the herpes. I am sorry.

But then where did the clap come from?

I have no problem with it either, and if it's named after a hero, then all the better.  The comment on the statues being torn down is more where I'm coming from.  It's looking for ways, making an effort to be able to feign being offended.  Did anyone realize, or even care, how many millions of tax payer dollars it's taking to change the names and branding of all these military bases?  All because someone felt like using names associated with our past is offensive.....to someone.

It will only get worse, especially as we approach another election cycle.

At this point, I'm quickly losing hope that we can turn this shit around, so anything to just hasten the fall, so we can rebuild...

It’s ironic that 40 years ago, it was a great place to live. Then, something changed. About 40 years ago.

Sounds like someone needs to get woke.

There are some glimmers of hope. Read a piece today where The Oklahoma University of Sooners, is losing millions upon millions in donations.  The DEI policies in their med school have pissed off the alumni.  Their argument is Oklahoma doesn't want to admit the best and brightest students to become doctors. They want the most diverse enrollment.  Plus, they spent over $18K of donor money to put on a transgender event.

What do you identify as?

Your bitch.

Wait...no.....I mean, you're my bitch.  I meant to say, "Your daddy".  Yeah, that's what I meant to say. I'm your daddy, and you're a bitch. BOOOOOM!

Oldie from the 360 days, but the Mass Effect trilogy - my favorite story of any RPG I've ever played.  They should have made this a HBO series instead of Last of Us. The Legendary Edition would have all three in one.

I enjoyed the Assassin's Creed "Hassan trilogy" (Origin, Odyssey, Valhalla) quite a bit, with Odyssey being my personal favorite.

GF is currently playing Jedi Survivor, and although he told me I didn't need to do it to play Survivor, I'm back into Jedi Fallen Order, which Survivor is a sequel to.

wait, your girlfriend's pronouns are he/him?

If it’s a new base, give it a new name. Otherwise leave it alone!

Ft. Bennington now Ft. Moore?

There's larger hills worth fighting & dying on.  The names being used to replace existing base names were extremely honorable servicemembers, so I have no problem with it.  Would also not have had a problem had the names stayed the same.

When the young generation starts choosing hills, then we have what we have today. All the generations before you thought the same thing when they were young.
Now we have a deviant society that thinks their deviant behavior is normal.

The problem is not the name change, but the reason for the change. And the millions spent to change them.

At some point in time, you’ll have no hills left!

You like Fort Dix, don’t you?
