WorldWideLem,

The Greeks figured this a couple thousand years ago and we’re just now catching up. SMH!

winterayars,

It was the secret to the Spartans’ power.

This, but unironically. Turns out if you’re in a stressful situation, having a great way to relieve stress without having to feel ashamed afterwards is really great for morale.

who8mydamnoreos,

Took a lesson from Sparta, make all your soldiers gay lovers and they will fight like hell.

Jackolantern,

I think it’s called Sacred Band of Thebes, where they specifically get male lovers as soldiers since they will fight for each other more fiercely.

A nice name for an acoustic band also.

Foggyfroggy,

Masters of the skin flute

0nXYZ,

Even though often rusty you can’t deny the tone of a trombone!

Yeah, the Sacred Band of Thebes (citizen-soldiers from a democratic polity) decisively defeated the Spartans (a caste-based oligarchy) in several engagements, shattering Spartan power.

gravitas_deficiency,

Would also be a great metal band name

SnipingNinja,

I see I’m late to this reference

Gays make better soldiers, says Putin’s adviser

Ukrainian men are HOT!!!

Karyoplasma,

Try Grindr.

PunnyName,

But half their staff is gone.

OrteilGenou,

Cheer up, you’ll still probably have three inches or so to work with

PrincessLeiasCat,

Which one of you told?

I am suddenly seeing Captain America in a whole new light.

PunnyName,

Have you seen how much time he spent with men? Saying “I can do this all day”?

OK so if the US has the ability to make Super Soldiers, and the "effect" is turning people gay, then the logical conclusion would be half of the US military would be gay by now.

tbf I've seen videos of US soldiers off-duty. That might not be far off...

I didn't want to call out a very specific and very wet branch of service. :p

But I did just remember the Village People have that song so I guess I'm a few decades late.

electrogamerman,

Isnt the same about jails?

Love how men are so macho straight men, until they are put together in groups without women, then they start curving 💅

theterrasque, (edited )

If this actually worked, you’d have official ball gargling exercises, and probably so much that the unofficial butt-stuff brunches would have to be cut short

lntl,

rise to meet the challenge?

Syrc,

Video for others like me who could NOT believe someone seriously said that.

Gay part begins at 3:17 but the part before is pretty “””interesting””” as well.

fosforus,

I think the woman hosting those things blinks every time she knows someone said something wrong.

afraid_of_zombies,

I haven’t seen a face so punchable since Pat Robertson died.

A. BAHAHAHHAA B. Pay close attention how the hateful people in this world act, speak, and think. They’re how hitler came to power. Know thy enemy better than you know yourself.

slackassassin,

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

getynge,

Brainwashing people to stay in the military through gay influence(?) is an interesting tactic as opposed to just making people obedient in general, maybe being gay is part of the secret to superpowers idk.

PunnyName,

Gotta make “being gay” an enemy. Other a person, dehumanise them, easier to kill.

Thorry84,

I’m super, thanks for asking! All things considered I couldn’t be better I must say!

DacoTaco,

God damn you big gay al
