Here are the new Boy Scout badges now that girls can join

It's official — and weirdly radical— the Boy Scouts of America will now welcome girls.

The Scouts announced on Wednesday that it will soon drop the word "boy" from its namesake program and begin to welcome older girls into the Eagle Scouts. The announcement sent a shockwave of terror through alt-right Twitter, leading right-wing bots and Jordan Peterson egg avatar types to claim that America is dead.

BREAKING: It is not. Instead, the Boy Scouts reformed for the better. The proof is in these new, modern masculine Scouts badges they'll all soon have to earn.
