This sounds like liberal “support the troops, hate the cheeto” wishful thinking/propaganda. Thousands of 18-20 year old, genocidal, dumb ass gross men probably flush all kinds of things all the time (bored, cum rags, ran out of toilet paper so used a shirt, had diarrhea and shit themselves, pranks and bullying etc)
Idk, if I’d joined the navy under the impression that it’d just be a well paying secure job with a good pension that earns me society-wide respect forever and pays for my degree and all i had to do is clean the decks, do a few military demonstrations and jerk off or whatever, I’d also be mad that theyre making me actually go to war and risk my life for Netanyahu regardless of my politics
There are plenty of shore-based jobs in the Navy. The USS Ford is based in Sasaebo which means Japanese girls. You have to specially sign up and compete for a job on a ship like this. They knew what they were getting into.
Hell there’s even jobs for the navy in the middle of fucking nowheresville, USA, if you’re a part of naval Aviation. The u.s military is pretty fucking messy in terms of how everything’s set up and where people go. Like why are there sailors stationed in the middle of a desert? Why are there army jagoffs on random fucking islands in the Pacific? Why are marines anywhere other than on boats? Why does the air force need mechanized infantry brigades? Why does the space force not actually operate in space? Why is the coast guard going to foreign countries instead of staying at the fucking coast?
It’s all a convoluted mess.
being office of naval intelligence in Afghanistan vibesOhhhh, that’s why he sucks so bad
The u.s military is pretty fucking messy in terms of how everything’s set up and where people go.
If I were around a group of US military personnel from various branches, I don’t think I’d be able to resist some trolling by asking them what branch’s traditions ought to be followed after a merging of all the branches.
S-tier trolling. I don’t think I will ever be in this situation, but I would probably steal this
Why are there army jagoffs on random fucking islands in the Pacific?
In case Godzilla comes back
Why does the air force need mechanized infantry brigades?
Luftwaffen-Feld-Divisionen, welcome back.
im not claiming theyre doing this because of any morality, i just think they dont want to get shot at and would much rather be getting paid bucketloads to fuck around in japan
One time in A-School I was stuck cleaning the same floor every day for like a week. Inside a building, lots of us kept our ball caps tucked into the back of our pants during the day. I ducked into a stall to sneak a nap, because labor for labor’s sake is bullshit. While entering, I realized I needed a poop, so dropped trou and sat down. Did my business, then when I stood up noted with a sigh I not only forgot my hat had been tucked away…but I had pooped on it.
Can’t flush it. Not gonna fish poopie hat outta the bowl to throw it away without gloves or something. So I left to see what I could find. 10mins later we have an all hands called by the base CO.
Apparently someone has made a terrible anti-Navy political statement. They have thrown a ball cap into a toilet and dropped a hefty dump right on top. The CO was livid. Especially once I immediately burst out laughing. Literally in tears at how stupid all of this is. He called me out and I explain exactly what happened in front of a building full of random sailors, who are all also laughing. He stomps off, I get a half-hearted beat down by my Chief, and life goes on.
Anyway, yeah sailors are dumbasses and there’s a hundred reasons the plumbing is fucked. Wasn’t me this time I promise.
there’s a little bit of history of SOS. you’d see it more if there was conscription.
to be honest it’s probably because living on a carrier sucks and USS gerald ford has been deployed for far too long, so you clog the toilets in order to get to spend some time on land. there isn’t a lick of morality in there that hasn’t been beaten out by the commanding officers.
C’mon, Pootemkin was right there!

There’s no evidence I’m aware of that this is any kind of intentional sabotage. apparently the ship is, what a surprise, poorly maintained:
8 months at sea takes a toll on the ship itself. The equipment breaks because maintenance and upgrades get postponed. NPR reported in January that the plumbing system on the carrier was getting worse. The carrier that cost $13 billion to build has toilets that are not functional, with sailors working round the clock to fix leaks. “Since it’s a vacuum system, a problem with one head can cause all of the toilets in that part of the ship to lose suction, making it difficult for the maintenance crews to isolate a problem. The crews find everything from T-shirts to a four-foot piece of rope clogging the system. But the most common problem seems to be a part of the back of the toilet that comes loose,” NPR reported.
do you think people are shitting out t shirts and 4 foot long ropes?
I think people fuck around and get bored and do stupid nonsense when they’re at sea for long stretches.
Doubly so for the military where it’s all 20-somethings who barely graduated high school doing weird hazing shit to one another.
Source: sister’s ex-husband barely graduated high school and joined the Navy where they did weird hazing shit to one another.
I once worked with a guy who was on a submarine in the Navy, and apparently the antics they get up to were pretty fucking wild. They love shoving shit up each others asses for some reason
I imagine submarines are more strict about toilet related antics though, but this is a carrier so way bigger with more and less disciplined people.
This didn’t happen on any other ship. Mutinies are like on that one destroyer whose captain drove it full speed into a busy shipping lane and got rammed by a cargo ship. The investigation afterwards revealed that they were rarely on the bridge and did not train their sailors properly. The crew tried filing complaints up the chain of command like they were supposed to but got ignored. The captain had been to Annapolis, see? They all stick together. Class consciousness, but in the wrong kind of way.
sometimes my dog would tear apart and eat clothing and then the next day (or maybe two days later if it’s bad) you have to pull a long poop-laden thing out of them during their walk
Have you seen some of the shit people throw in porta-potties at music festivals and shit?
We are talking about a bunch of bored 20 year old guys stuck on a boat here.
Some people are.
eat this t-shirt sounds like a haze. 4 foot rope might want to get checked for polyps
If they ate them, perhaps
8 months at sea takes a toll on the ship itself. The equipment breaks because maintenance and upgrades get postponed.
That’s genuinely kind of pathetic
So the American navy is the same as the boats in their parking lots
This floating piece of shit is only a decade old. The Nimitz-class which makes up the remainder of the USN’s aircraft carriers are up to 50 years old.
Is that true, or did you hear it on NPR? If NPR said shit tastes good you’d eat a mouthful?
I’ll believe any of this is about Gaza when someone on the ship says so and not before.
Yeah, mil chuds haven’t starting grown a conscience
Where does it say otherwise? Candace Owens and Nick Fuentes are the biggest voices for young US right-wingers and they are both anti-Israel. Chuds under 30 don’t like the zionist entity either, albeit for mostly antisemitic or other chuddy reasons. A decent portion of the people on that ship probably think Israel killed Charlie Kirk.
The pro-Israel right is absolutely furious at Candace Owens right now.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the 2A types show up at her house soon.
Trying to think of a job worse than “aircraft carrier toilet technician” and coming up empty
20 years ago, i guy i worked with was out of the Navy after doing his 4 years. he said aircraft carriers were the worst posting in the navy, that carriers were basically floating dysfunctional cities with stupid high crime (with routine attempts to downplay or cover up how bad it was & how involved the officer corps was), gang violence to control criminal enterprises ranging from drugs to coordinated, industrial theft, and just generally violent areas one should avoid to not get robbed or assaulted.
it seems like it had the culture of a densely populated island-based prison work camp with a complex system of trustees and furloughs. where the object was to do your job, stick to safe common areas, and stare directly forward/seeing nothing.
Trump did say he would send the criminals out of the country lmao!
This is the same thing I have been told by someone who has been out for 4 years, like three weeks ago. Apparently the only thing that has gotten slightly better is that you have abit less of a chance of being outright battered.
But they literally had a secret pee hole on the side of the ship, because they weren’t allowed to leave their guard posts for any reason for like 6 straight hours.
That was the post-Vietnam US Navy. It was war-weary and out of control. There were spaces that officers did not dare to go. They were putting bricks of heroin in body bags of KIAs to smuggle it back to the States. The military got rid of conscription for a reason.
the guy who told me this story graduated high school in 1997.
That is technically post-vietnam
we are all in a post-Street Sharks era of US Naval Doctrine.
oops
In the Marines there was a string of 4 or so murders in the area of the base I lived at, I got jumped between two of them. The violence doesn’t stay over seas.
Realistically, this is expected behavior when you have what are effectively a bunch of trained killers/child soldiers trapped in a box together
Submarine toilet technician. Not only do you have to fish out the dude’s shirt, but then you have to sleep in his bunk during his shift.
IDF soldier.
on a giant bathtub in the middle of the ocean that is probably going to be sunk in the first few hours of conflict I would not want to die for the zionists either
I started reading this in a sing-songy voice like
Oooooooh, who lives on a giant bathtub in the middle of the ocean that is probably going to be to be sunk in the first few hours of conflict
But then I realized it stops having any chance of sounding like the spongebob song after a while
I wish the US had a military that would mutiny, I’d love to see it.
I only seeing it becoming a possiblity if/when the US takes heavy casualties. In short, the troops are fine killing whoever as long as they don’t think they personally are that likely to die
Yeah aside from the Mike Prysners or Aaron Bushnells of the world the best you can hope for from US troops is “I personally don’t want to die for this shit.”
I’d like to direct people back to daniyeg’s comment up-thread.
I think the navy personnel are well aware of Iran’s capabilities and probably feel the most vulnerable.
I had an elaborate bit where iran flies in a drone with a t-shirt cannon and plugs all the shitters leading to catastrophic failure and sinking the ship. But it turns out it’s simply improvised officer fragging by the sailors!
The first war prevented because the belligerent army didnt eat enough fiber.
Critical supoort for dudewipes™
Critical support!
EVERSHITTEN
I’m hoping this is true, but the USA lies about everything, so I’m suspicious that it’s just a misdirection/lie, like when Trump said they wouldn’t attack Iran, then they did. “Oh our carrier is having issues, guess we won’t attack” then they attack, kind of thing.
I really doubt it. Some dumbass grunt would immediately be running their mouth about how it’s a lie and they really want to burn the world or whatever
poop is not a psyop
Wow banned for this comment mods really have let it go to their heads
It could be. A very bad poop-op
Whatever, who cares! No war!
This makes the US military look ridiculous and it puts a harsh light on the wunderwaffe and all of the brand new systems that they shoved into it that still aren’t integrated correctly.
I am completely 100% certain that the vain idiots would never put out this story on purpose
Oh bullshit, this was pulled out of my wetdreams
yeah was probably just dumb seamen using the toilet as a trash disposal
Dumb seamen
