Other countries laugh at us for fighting over things like this. This is <1% of the population we're talking about here.

So what? 0.001% of our population died on 9/11 and it dominated our national discussion for years. <1% of the population matters.
That was an attack on civilians by terrorists, not government policy that affects a tiny minority of people.
So we shouldn't care that a minority is being discriminated against?

Apparently only the majorities, the so-called "regular people," matter.
See this is the problem though. Why we absolutely should accommodate transpeople in the military, there are people who are discomforted by it. They are soldiers too. Why can't their concerns for once be heard instead of being dismissed? There are far more of them than trans. Being trans doesn't make you special. You shouldn't get a medal for it. And it definitely shouldn't be grounds for a ban.
If that makes you uncomfortable, how could you possibly make a tough decision under fire?

How many transpeople are actually physically and mentally fit? Serious question. Is the ban justified overall? No, but this has more to do with the professional whiners than the professional soldiers it effects.
Plenty, hardly different than the general population. I find it hilarious catering to the feelings of a few pathetic soldiers matters more to you than members of the military who have earned their spot there.

But then again, all you ever do is apologize for Trump

Meh, when I enlisted you couldn't even be openly gay. This isn't that controversial to me or many other people.
So what? It's controversial for people who are now barred from serving.

I'm sorry but I feel these things are just social experiments of the left.
A social experiment doesn't mean accepting anyone who wants to serve in the military. A social experiment is when you mom calls you well endowed.

It hasn't even been enacted yet. In fact nothing has been proposed yet.

Is any of this real anyway? Eh,  it, we should split a bottle of Smirnoff.

I guess the Wehrmacht has a few thousand less enemies to fight, now
