Duffel Blog: I Sexually Identify As An A-10 Thunderbolt

From Duffel Blog:

The following is an opinion piece written by Spc. Herbert Pansing, US Army. The opinions expressed are not necessarily those of Duffel Blog or the editors.

I have finally found the strength to admit it.

I was 12 years old when I realized that I’m not really a man at heart, but rather a 19 foot, 10.5 inch long gatling gun strapped onto a 24,959 pound airframe.
All my life has been a lie but I’m setting that right today. I was designed to kill Soviet tanks. From now on, call me “Warthog.” That’s my real name.

I’m having plastic surgeons attach a GAU-8 Avenger 30 milimeter rotary cannon, 1,200 pounds of titanium armor, and two General Electric TF34-GE-100 turbofan engines to my body. Sgt. Major Fairchild said I’m fucking stupid and I can’t be a jet, but I’m beautiful and I am a goddamn jet.

If the Army won’t pay for me to get the surgery, I’m just going to bring in Code Pink and point out that that Manning loser is getting hormones and he’s in prison so why shouldn’t a perfectly well-adjusted and honorably serving soldier have the right to be who they truly are, a metal killing machine?

I am so sick and tired of being oppressed. Now we A-10’s are on Congress’s chopping block. It’s sickening to see all the white cisgender nazi shitlords literally raping my people with their actions.

It’s my right to spray 2,100 to 4,200 depleted uranium rounds per minute at both soft and hard targets and if you don’t support me and my transformation then you’re an aerialphobe and need to check your weapon platform privilege.

He can't live a lie anymore. If you don't like it, check your weapons platform privilege.

I feel your pain! Perhaps the VA can help deflating the cost. You may get SSI to help if you claim a war injury related to a mission. I wish you luck, XXXOOO BUC Sharp

RallyPoint Team Just another note from your favorite professionalism malcontent.

I could swear someone already posted this....
And I'm not so grouchy that I object to a posting Duffelblog, I think it's great fun most of the time, and in fact a step up from much of the content posted by RallyPoint Shared Content. Is this particular topic really the one that RallyPoint Shared Content wants to be their first post from the Duffelblog?

Actually, now having visited the profile and looked at the postings from today (8 hours ago) this is /precisely/ the kind of content RallyPoint Shared Content wants to be posting.

The one I'm commenting on is Controversy re: Transgendered issues article #1, but with a humor twist to keep it light as we make our comments.

This is
Controversy re: Transgendered issues article #2
https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/transgender-officer-who-spent-50-000-to-become-a-woman-slams-us-army-rules-that-force-soldiers-to-keep-calling-her-sir

And this is
Salacious news and scandal without context or questions intending development lessons.

And finally we arrive at: genuine military story, history, possible military discussions and leadership lessons.
