it's absolutely fascinating how the current government does everything they possibly can to promote and reward literal witch hunts.

Literal grammar Nazis
It's grammar vs nazis.
The upside to all of this right-wing censorship is that every time they do it they sell a bit of their claim to being subversive rebels pushing against a stodgy set of norms around speech and independence. Which, like, is a large part of what they've built their base on.
We're quickly getting back to that 90s era status quo of the right being whining church groups who don't want to see anyone gay on TV or hear anyone say things that they don't like politically. The result being that the left gets to look cool and subversive again, which swings the pendulum toward our side.
The biggest strategic mistake we ever made on the left was coming off as scolding moral purists. This is an opportunity to walk that back, and to reframe the push for our rights as rebellion. "I don't care what you think, I'm doing what I want" is a much stronger position than "let me tell you why what you say and do is immoral".
This is a terrible precedent, but I also think that this Medical Doctor will somehow land on her feet.
She’s still probably panicking.
If she’s fired, she could get discharged. If they force a dishonorable discharge on her, that’s a 20 year military pension that just went out the window. I’d be losing my shit if I lost a pension that I was already vested in.
Yep and the psychological impact will be devastating. The military becomes part of your identity, and she's devoted her life to it.
her resume is impressive, she wont have trouble getting a MD position in the private sector, which pays more anyways.
and now she doesn't have to work for the regime any longer, win/win
I’d imagine she is still part of the navy, she’s just no longer in that command position and that position was probably removed.
What a perverse world. Fired for being civil.
The left, those who promote inclusivity and acceptance, are accused of hate. How odd.
Lawsuit coming
Is that even possible for a military leader in this situation?
She wasn’t kicked out of the Navy, just removed from that command. As far as suits for wrongful discharge…all the folks kicked out under DADT show that the answer is a later administration can change the status of your discharge but you’ll likely never see any benefits
with so few navy doctors to begin with, her being very accomplished is only going to hurt the navy when they need doctors.
We better find out.
ZOMG! Not...pronouns! Will the scourge never end?!
Guess they have plenty of doctors in the Navy. Fuck em, then.
When is somebody finally going to retaliate against Libs of TikTok?
Since they have no issue doxxing others I think we should know who they are
We do, it's Chaya Raichik, this is not particularly hidden information, she spoke at CPAC
My favorite retaliation so far is simply showing how stupid Chaya Raichik actually is. She didn't think any of this ideology through. An obvious grifter just saying random things she thinks conservatives want to hear. She has no idea what she's talking about at all
She got hired by the Oklahoma State Department of Education to help monitor for “woke” in schools.
chaiya rachik. is her name, i doubtful, since shes primararily y funded by putin.
she walks the streets of Brooklyn relatively frequently without any issue, somehow. actually, i doubt that, she's made a ton of money from the grift so she probably has an expensive apartment overlooking Manhattan and probably orders everything she needs to fuel her hatred.
Everyday we inch closer to handmaids tale irl.
Assuming there's not more to this, it's horrifying 😳
