It is literally impossible to get unbiased news. Everyone will have their personal beliefs bleed into what they saw/how they recount the event. More so for companies that send people out into the world to gather said news.
There is just more/less transparency on the bias.
I feel like this is giving the GOP too much credit. The “old Republican party” never wanted trans in the military, and given how small the percentage of trans people in the US, I don’t know that it will majorly impact readiness. But even if it would have, would have been an acceptable sacrifice to any time period of republicans. To pretend like the Rs of the past wouldn’t have celebrated this at any time is looking back at the past with opaque rose glasses. It is hallucinating a time that never was.
Finding hard to summon sympathy for someone that would still buy a Tesla after the far right lurch from the owner. I feel terrible for myself, as I should care that 3 young lives have ended, but can’t help but think they were likely enemies of a democratic US.
