It's true that no one should join the military but the right to join the military is part of what the state considers to be the rights conferred on you for being a full citizen. When they deem you ineligible to do this core thing that's part of civic life, they're saying you're less of a valid person.

No one should join the military. But the government saying "you are officially an outgroup of undesirables" is very serious.
