Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

You're getting quite incoherent.
I have edited nothing, so it matters not if the edit history is publicly available or not. If this is your attempt to discredit me, it's pretty pathetic. You just didn't bother to read what I had written, right?
Our universities do not use IQ tests to select students nor have I claimed that they did. This is your own mental fabrication.
Depending of the situation, in my country we DO refer to ourselves as "officers" or "reserve officers". Spesific rank is used in the garrisons and drills or when an individual is interviewed by the media. In the refresher drills the reserve officer ranks are equal to career officer ranks.
I understand that this all may be new and confusing information to you, but some things can be done very differently in different countries.
I do am getting tired of you
You have edited your first comment 3 different times as you have edited almost all your other comments! Do you think ppl are not going to look it up if that nono you didn’t?
You did and I hope everyone looks up your edit history
I am suuure they do, pray tell what fabled country that might be?
You referred to ‘my country’ how many times now? Can you maybe, just maybe your the name of your country as a synonym for once? You can change it postumus if you walk yourself into another corner!
No edits have been made and you know it.
Just admit you made a mistake and we'll laugh this off.
Aaaand you stop adressing it! And since I do lots of things I might not even notice it! With how many things did you get away like this?
What is your country?
