    this is called stolen valor and is overwhelmingly seen as a jerk move

      Hardly. 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.

        Thought experiment: what if it’s in-store and the cashier asks if you’re in the military and you say yes?

          I’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.
