minus-squarecandyman337@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19·1 year agoHardly. Stolen valor is when you impersonate a vet for clout. You’re putting in a code in a checkout menu that you and you alone will see, to get a discount.
minus-squaredystop@lemmy.worldOPMlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 year agoThought experiment: what if it’s in-store and the cashier asks if you’re in the military and you say yes?
minus-squarepapalonian@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·1 year agoI’d say dick move in that scenario. At that point you’re no longer throwing strings of text at a website, you’re lying to a person. What if the cashier’s father died serving? That’s an awkward situation you don’t wanna be in.
