      genuinely good

      There’s nothing genuine about it, it’s purely saving face and trying to avoid doing the only thing he understands, escalation.

      Has nothing to do with being targeted for impeachment or anything, just Hegseth doing a genuinely good thing.

      Give me a fucking break.

      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

          @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
