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.
