I share your anti-militarist attitude, but I don’t think that this is good in any way. It is rather bad. The military is a well respected institution in society and the standards it enforces resonate to societal beliefs very deeply. For decades, a staple rhetorical attack against gay people was that “they don’t take them in the army for a reason”. And guess what, this belief floats around to this day. So this is a huge discrimination, and very stigmatizing, and it will be the bedrock of massive scapegoating of trans people in both the US and the UK. And it might not be this triumph of anti-militarism you seem to think it is. History shows that this can just be the prelude to a massive militarization of society at large.
