'I can't believe I fought for this bulls**t': Navy SEAL who helped kill Osama Bin Laden fumes over Navy's decision to use drag queen for their recruitment program
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Navy SEAL Robert O'Neill who took part in the mission to kill Osama Bin Laden is outraged over the U.S. Navy using a drag queen for a recruitment program

  • 'I can't believe I fought for this bulls**t,' O'Neill tweeted on Wednesday

  • The vet was referencing the Navy's use of Yeoman 2nd Class Joshua Kelley, a drag queen who announced in November an ambassadorship with the Navy
Kelley was tasked with highlighting her journey from performing on board beginning in 2018 and growing to become an 'advocate' for those who 'were oppressed for years in the service.'

A Navy spokesman told DailyMail.com the digital ambassador program was a pilot that ended in March 2023.

The program Kelley was part of ran from October 2022 to March 2023 and was designed to 'explore the digital environment to reach a wide range of potential candidates' for military recruitment.

After O'Neill sent out his tweet Wednesday afternoon, others chimed in to share in O'Neill's outrage over the ambassadorship.

His tweet quickly gained 1.1 million views and thousands of likes and retweets.

There is a lot of Why The Fuck Then? going on, with this and the pullout etc, and ultimately the answer comes back to this. But it seems the respect is gone.

Hey DM, why are you not using his preferred name Harpy Daniels in the headlines? Is it because its fucking silly like all these pretend names are?

What used to be equatorial hazing is now recruitment.

Yup, and what you need to do for promotion to leadership. IIUC, Ru Paul was the vessel which turned drag from a performance to kink by bridging the gap as glam. Don't get me wrong, he was used, but he was the link. The gain-of-function, if you will. Its all a very coordinated effort.

This Harpy dude is doing kink, and the attempt is to turn kink into fashion.

Gawddammit I remember when Hunger Games was Logan's Run for girls, and not a goal.

#9 Poor author is conflicted with nostalgia and delusion. This is what Cognitive Dissonance looks like in the real world:

'I can't believe I fought for this bulls**t..."

"...believing in the greatness of the American ideal..."
