This has to be a cover story, right? If this is what happened, why would they just admit to it like this?

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

100% they got ventilated by a guy in sweatpants with an AK older than himself
This. It's remarkably easy to slip on a wet ladder when you're busy getting riddled with bullets from above.
how would they even know this in the first place? and why would it take multiple days for the whole story to come out?
Hope against hope that the political polarization has infiltrated the military and intelligence communities and the Trumpers are acting like a fifth column.
Maybe these two Marines slipped and died to own the libs!
Limited hangout. When people know you’re lying and perhaps even the details (e.g. Houthis claimed they killed the seals), they’ll pivot to giving you piecemeal information. Everyone will be focused on the ladder, maybe the weapons, but they won’t ask about anything else.
i like how they are supposed to go after someone that falls in the water. The Navy demands you die in pairs.
one weird trick the US Navy doesn't want you to know
I can't prove it, but I know it's true that the first one slipped and fell and knocked the second one down.
from the top rope you say?
BY GOD IT'S A HOUTHI SOLDIER WITH A STEEL CHAIR!
If it was me, i would just simply not drown.
I'm just built different
Thats right
warm water too. so maybe 2-3 days of delerium unless the sharks got them.
lol. 
Unless they sank from being strapped to like 50 lbs of gear. Also an awful way to go
I think I remember reading something about seals drowning in vietnam from trying to go across rivers with gear on so that's why they developed those life jackets you see them with, lol vietnam stays winning.

Boat ladders have a symbiotic relationship with oceanic carnivores confirmed.
Seals are a staple diet for sharks.
Guess basic training didn't prepare you for the no wet floor sign.
blows whistle
No running on the boat!
Critical failure on a DC2 Dexterity check to climb a ladder
Critical failure on a Wisdom saving throw to not jump into the ocean at night after the first guy
To be fair, they're more used to doing things like furnishing little boys and heroin to pedophile warlords in the desert
Uncritical support to ladders in the struggle against imperialism.
this must be the escalation ladder I keep hearing about
Folks just because your commander in chief falls down the stairs doesn't mean you're supposed to as well
They were pirates hahahaahahahababahahah the Americans were pirates hahahhahaj
who would win:
- the elite of the elite of the most expensive military on the planet
- a slightly moist poopdeck
How long until Hasan gets the ladder on stream?
Isn’t getting onto boats and swimming a core skill for SEALs? Alongside eating clams?
So is lying about what really happened.
Seals do not lie.
Sea lions do.
Nat one you say
DOD cheaped out and got them walmart boots so they could send the difference to ukraine
Navy Banana PEEL
To be fair, he was busy writing his memoir of the war.
It’s Daily Mail, but fuck it I don’t care if they want to make the empire look extremely stupid whether it’s true or not
Hitman speedrunners put a banana peel there. Sad
It's been a pleasure drowning with you Captain
why couldn't they swim
white people stop functioning when the water hits 70 F
They didn’t learn the SEAL part
