TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

It's never been much of a secret.

In any military.

This is not, mind you, any sort of justification.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

The part that gets me is that the victims are systematically treated like shit.

If the military left things like rape to the CID, instead of the victim's command structure, that wouldn't be a problem.

But that would make sense.

CID? I know that in the UK rape in the military is dealt with by civilian police. That seems sensible to me.

Criminal Investigation Division, an independent office in the provost's office.  They investigate serious crimes...Except for rape, for some reason.

Ok thanks for the clarification.
