this headline was 100% readable for someone old enough to have lived through this nonsense. seems trivial to lookup the policy if young ones are unfamiliar
A: “Dont ask dont tell” is a completely made up bullshit phrase specific to the US that makes no sense outside of context
B: Without knowing about A its impossible to know whether them getting a “honorable discharge” is an improvement or not.
Reading the entire story and not just the headline helps.
You must be new here!
Haha! You’d think I’d know by now.
Nah. I’m plenty old enough and it’s a shit headline, probably purposeful ragebait.
WTF how is that possible, is that still in effect in some way??
… oh. Whew.
