Mind you the show is based on a true story. And doesn’t the Pentagon have better things to do than addressing Netflix?

    1. I don’t know what Kinky Boots is about but it would have been a great name for a series about gay soldiers

    2. Did the actual Pentagon say this, or just one of Trumps goons with a twitter account?

      Or… is there a difference anymore?

    3. Nobody gives a fuck what the “Pentagon” thinks. Besides we all know it’s just the idiot GOP Nazis in charge anyway.

    4. Pete wanting things to “look tough” because he doesn’t know what real personal grit and strength looks like. He’s on his mall ninja shit.

    5. My conservative father was watching Boots at Thanksgiving, and I really want to know if he continued watching once he picked up on it lol

    6. We all know Kegseth has got stoned/drunk and embraced his homosexual side on more than one occasion.

    7. Bah.. their too busy sending live amo over the 5 near camp pendleton, you know.. anti programming for no kings day

    8. That’s crazy cuz I thought this was a good series that shows the military in a somewhat positive light, and could possibly even help with enlisting new recruits 

    9. CarelesslyFabulous on

      I decided not to watch it figuring it was going to be military propaganda. From comments here, it maybe is?

    10. I watched the whole series and loved it. I thought it was very pro military and a lot of the scenes reminded me of the basic training I went to back in the 90s.

    11. The way I see it, the more they’re fighting Netflix over dumb shit, the less time they spend killing innocent boaters.

    12. DontPutThatDownThere on

      Does the Pentagon have better things to do? Yes.

      Does it matter when they feel that controlling the media is the key to controlling the masses? No.

    13. I’ve never cared for the show “Yellowstone” but it’s a hit for a lot of people. Not everything is for you, why do they give a shit!

    14. GoatDifferent1294 on

      Again, that word “woke” being bastardized and ruined as just another far right Christian nationalism dogwhistle.

    15. Six minutes in I knew it was gay stuff. The kid could put together a coherent sentence and wanted to join the Marines. Duh.

    16. Aberbekleckernicht on

      Uhh no the pentagon does not have better things to do. The movies are a major outlet for pentagon propaganda. Billions of dollars of dod budget go towards Hollywood and providing services for the movies in exchange for cool/badass/positive depictions in film.

    17. As a gay Marine who went through bootcamp during DADT, I thought it was pretty damn spot on
