    Findings indicate greater heterogeneity in support for transgender service between heterosexual, LGB, and male- and female-identified service members. LGB and women service members reported the greatest support (81% and 75% respectively) while heterosexual and male service members indicated the lowest support of transgender service (56% and 62% respectively). Among racial/ethnic groups, Black and Latinx service members reported the highest support for transgender people serving (69% and 75% respectively) while 64% of white service members indicated their support. Despite some differences within these groups, the majority of participants in our sample (66%) indicated that they supported transgender people serving in the armed forces.



  • Generally, classically I’ve understood Socialism to still involve central planning of industry/production.

    Socialism is worker control of the means of production, which can take many forms. What it is, most distinctively, is incompatible with capitalism, which is investor control of the means of production.

    Whereas most modern socialist democracies tend to heavily regulate industry and enact social welfare programs to minimize the effects of different classes etc.

    The most successful socialist parties in the West take the view that the harm of capitalism should be reduced while it still exists; they still believe in the eventual abolition of capitalism.
