As if this country isn't shitty enough, Pete #Kegsbreath has decided to no longer recognize #Paganism as a religion in the #US #military.
From the article:
"In 2017, the Department of Defense updated its list of recognized religious affiliation codes, expanding it to include 221 denominations and belief systems. The list encompassed a wide range of traditions, including mainstream #Christian denominations, minority religions, #Wiccan and #Pagan paths, and non-theistic belief systems such as #atheism.
#Hegseth criticized those earlier changes as products of “political correctness” and described them as part of what he called an 'ongoing #war on #warriors'...'We’re going to streamline it,' Hegseth said, 'so that our chaplains can actually use it to minister better to the flock.'"
Flock and shepards? Talk about a fucking #Christofascist dog whistle.
If you are an #American, a Pagan, and want to serve in the military then I suggest you get a different job.
As for Kegsbreath and these other Christofascists, I have a message for you:
Go home and asphyxiate yourself in a severely clogged toilet.

Pentagon Targets ‘New Age’ Spirituality in Sweeping Chaplain Corps Changes
Calling the Army’s Spiritual Fitness Guide “new age” and unserious, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered its immediate removal, raising concerns about how future chaplain reforms could affect religious pluralism within the U.S. military.
