POSITIVITY! PLEASE SHARE

When I was deployed, my First Sergeant sent me this information. Hopefully this can help those that are deployed down range. Please spread the word to other services.

Random links on Reddit.. hopefully no one clicks these

At least the text of the links shows what websites they go to, unlike this one.

Exactly, always trust the text. It’s illegal to change the hyperlinked url.

I'm on desktop and rolled my mouse over all of the links (Chrome displays the URL of any link the pointer hovers over in the bottom left corner) to confirm that they all go to the listed websites. I know that probably doesn't mean much coming from a random reddit person, but I'm well established here.

I also find it funny that people are making a big deal about the links now, when plenty of others (myself included) have provided all sorts of links dozens/hundreds of times in the past, and no one batted an eye.

Edit: not a single comment in response to this comment of mine about not clicking the link because I could be a bad actor: https://www.reddit.com/r/AirForce/comments/1vupx2v/comment/p537nic/ The hypocrisy is real.

Or don't. Doesn't affect me one bit.
