I’m convinced this was a psy-op from the beginning. Notice how it’s nothing more than a proposal, which costs basically nothing. Yet for years through popular culture osmosis I’ve heard people confidentially say everything from it was researched all the way to saying there 100% is a working “gay bomb”. It’s almost like the word of it was intentionally spread and prodded to amplify.
The US military doesn’t need to actually research a “gay bomb”, they just need to make it public knowledge that they are “researching” one. When opponents are conscripts in Iraq and various Balkan groups, who are among those cultures who really don’t want to be seen as gay- then the threat of a gay bomb is as effective as a real one, and for a fraction the cost.
Our national policy is that we can’t officially comment on the number or level of deployment of gay bombs on our gay submarines or gay carriers. Or on their readiness to be launched via gay ICBMs and gay jets.
But rest assured that any existential threat to our country will find us ready to drop the big gay.

Oh, very convincing… EXCEPT that that’s EXACTLY what someone who had a WORKING GAY BOMB would say to throw us off the trail!

Whoever came up with this, I want their job.
Working groups within working groups at the Pentagon, all with obfuscating names.
Read ‘The Men Who Stare At Goats’ (almost no relation to the movie) as a piece of journalism on Cold War and early GWOT monetary blackboxes.
