       #HarveyMilk came from a family that had a history of #NavalService & he was commissioned as an officer in 1951…. Milk then served as a diving officer on the submarine rescue ship USS Kittiwake during the #KoreanWar. He was honorably discharged from the service as a lieutenant junior grade in 1955.#Pride #LGBTQ #discrimination #bigotry #ignorance #hate #TheCrueltyIsThePoint #military #Navy

       @Nonilex these fucking ghouls. I know the cruelty is the point and we shouldn’t be surprised but god I fucking hate them. The man is famous for being hate-crimed and that’s not even good enough for them.

       @Nonilex Don't Trump and Hegseth know that only weak men need to pick on homosexuals and transsexuals? Strong personalities don't need that.

       It gets predictably worse:#HarveyMilk is just one of several trailblazers whose name has been identified for possible removal from naval vessels. …they include #ThurgoodMarshall, the first #Black #SCOTUS justice; #RuthBaderGinsburg [#RBG], another Supreme Court justice, who became a feminist icon; 1/#WhiteSupremacy #MaleSupremacy #Heterosexism #bigotry #discrimination #hate #Trump #PeteHegseth #military #Tyranny #AmericanAutocracyhttps://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/us/politics/navy-ships-harvey-milk-renamed.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare&sgrp=p&pvid=38D79453-1DC0-4D75-BF31-6387C3AEDEF0

       @Nonilex Of course, magats are so ignorant about history I doubt seriously most of them even knew there is a ship named Harvey Milk, and the vast majority have no idea who he was.

       @Nonilex 'However, the memo reviewed by Military.com noted that the renaming was being done so that there is "alignment with president and SECDEF objectives and SECNAV priorities of reestablishing the warrior culture," apparently referencing President Donald Trump, Hegseth and Phelan.'See the discussion of "soldiers" and "warriors" here:https://acoup.blog/2021/01/29/collections-the-universal-warrior-part-i-soldiers-warriors-and/

       @Nonilex There's a kind of mean pettiness to this. Okay, they're  homophobic, but who on earth imagines a name on a ship is going to harm anyone?Governments are supposed to have better things to do.
