    Imagine having the time/place/authority align to yell at the SecDef without consequence… Or with, I guess we’ll see, but I love it regardless.

    Edit: HEGSETH AWARDED HIM A MEDAL

      Guarantee his promotions and such will be “mysteriously” denied, and any subjective performance reviews will similarly “mysteriously” state he’s just not quite meeting expectations any more.

      Source: My own career was stymied and then extinguished for reasons “unrelated” to my refusals to follow illegal orders as a cop.

          🤞

          To be honest, I’ve learned better of hoping for things to go the predictable, sane way in this administration.

          The minute we’re sure the bad thing won’t happen, something worse will.

      While Hegseth seems a piece of trash human in general, that’s at least genuinely a good move.

        The sad thing is, the medal could either be cover for mysteriously denying the soldier promotions, could be given out of genuine respect for the soldier showing Kegsbreath that his idea of “manly men” still exists in this world, or a sign of defeat from Kegsbreath.

        Hahahahah, you don’t need to “@” people you’ve replied directly to.

        He’s genuinely a piece of shit. This was a nice surprise though

          Welcome to the fediverse, that’s a mbin user. It’s just the default behaviour of their client.

            @floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com

            @Hatchepsut@piefed.social @zoloftt@lemmy.world Yup, that’s what’s happening here!

            I like Mbin, though I’m still figuring out parts of it. It’s a sort weird hybrid of Mastodon and Lemmy and I’m not quite sure how the boosting and mentioning stuff works—that is, how they function. Do people need to follow me to see my boosts? Why does it @ people when I reply to them? Do I need to keep those for the OC to see my reply? But 🤷

              Afaik boosts either count as an upvote or are ignored, and you can remove the @ and it should still display correctly in Lemmy, although I’m not sure if that would influence how other mbin users see it

      He will be punished, likely solitary confinement for a year or two

          Without confirming it myself, that immediately signals to me that they’re gonna start doing outrage moments and then flipping the outrage into micro wins.

          Edit: 1000x more than they already fucking do. I hope all these bastards taste nothing but napalm when they rot in hell, truthfully.

      Pete Kegsbreath and his staff were being disrespectful at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and got barked at by a sentinel.
