Engaging with you (and some others) is a waste of time (and here I am…), simply because you are effectively what you just accused “everyone else” of being. The opposite of what you claimed is pretty apparent here - you have a lot of conservatives who are not happy about some things the admin does or says, are happy about some of the things the admin does/says, and recognize that current state of the main stream dem party is alarmingly bad if you give a shit at all about the founding principles and morals of this country. I know it sucks to hear a “well it’s the best of two meh options,” but unfortunately that’s where we’re at for a lot of the country currently. So instead of being a condescending, self righteous douche on the internet, can you please put your effort into unfucking the dem party and candidates at least at your local level? What do I define as “unfucking? - candidates and platforms that align with American values and an America first agenda (and I don’t mean that to be Trump’s slogan, just in general) - care about our country and citizens first before you care about others. We should simply have a different opinion on how to achieve that with things like healthcare, insurance, housing, etc. We should be debating policy differences to achieve a more or less shared goal, not be after significantly different desired end states (e.g. ram socialism/communism down people’s throats vs. at least attempt to maintain our constitutional republic). Personally I think the only viable solution is a 3rd party - kick the socialists/far left out of the dems and make them be their own party. They can still peddle their bullshit all they want, but at least the Dems can get back to the 90s/early 2000s (which surprise, would actually align with some of Trump’s policies, because he’s not far right/ultra conservative in the slightest; he and 69% of the country appear that way only because of how insanely far left the dem party has been hijacked in the last 15 years).

It may not be that “sinister” of motivation. She’s pissed that finance fucked up…again…for the 69th million time. Among the list of daily fuckups by FM world, incorrect classification of something on an LES is basically still a 95% success rate by their standards. I don’t blame her for the politically motivated hacks in the MSM taking something and making a gigantic lie out of it - it’s their MO.

I understand your concern, and I share it. But, being in an uproar about T screening is to be against extremely mainstream healthcare in the civ world, and to be linear, you might as well start rallying against HIV testing also (why does 95% of the mil need that…I made that number up, but you get the point). If they start forcing TRT, I’ll pick up a pitch fork next to you. But until then, this was simply media-created rage bait with zero actual substance.

I don’t know what clearances you have or don’t have. But I do know from your long and distinguished history of laughably incorrect, half baked posts that you do in fact have zero clue on the topic of this thread. I’m sure there’s things you’re smart on and well informed on, but this ain’t it.

It never ceases to amaze me how much humans will run their mouths on things they have zero actual knowledge on. But, I guess egos are going to ego.

“Health passport” is a great idea. The positive way to look at this is screening for 30+ is certainly a step in the right direction (and as stated, not nearly enough…but it’s a start). I’m not seeing a negative, at least a logical one. I am 100% against forced therapy/drugs, but that isn’t happening, so it’s a moot point.

Frankly the mil should be testing for a shitload more things. The fact I have to pay hundreds out of pocket every year to get full blood panels to track health is dumb. But then again, the mil hasn’t given a shit about my health in over 20 years. It would be awesome if the mil started doing yearly blood panels for every service member - that would be an immensely good thing…and something some people would still lose their minds about for some illogical reason.

This just in, No One asserts an objective exists that never did (100% destruction of BM capability) and he’s aghast that Patriots don’t have a 1.0 pK. Oh no, it’s all over folks! Is going full retard your professional job, or just a hobby?

Well you made two false claims and an extremely hyperbolic one. It’s out of character, so that’s why I ask.

Sarcasm?

Swing and a miss. Zero people are forced to do TRT. It’s screening/informational only, with any follow up TRT being 100% voluntary. Also FWIW, TRT is very mainstream and not some far out in left field thing. Not saying you or anyone else should want to do it, but screening for it and docs recommending TRT is common these days. So no , this whole thing is not remotely as big of a deal the media is making it out to be (which some on here are apparently buying).

While probably not a large % of the pilot pool, the public has no idea how many of these 60+ CAs are way past their prime and it’s the FO that is the saving grace getting them to their destination safely. The trapped errors by the FO “mafia” (while anecdotal for me and my airline friends), is very alarming. Yet, nothing happens, the company won’t do shit, and these boomer pilots will continue to argue their “experience” is necessary. Concur with the GA guys, actually never had a bad older CA who was into outside flying.

@Lord Ratner Yep, the LEPF/67 crowd is another prime example.

Biff moved to Florida?
