Nazis don’t give a shit about being hypocrites.
They’re open and proud about it, they fundamentally believe that they’re right because they believe they’re right, and you’re wrong because you don’t. Shouting buttery males or pointing out leopard face eating is like throwing a cucumber at the terminator and expecting a reaction. They don’t give a shit. They absolutely will not stop ever until The Right Peopletm have all the power to the exclusion of everyone else.
What matters is consequences. What are we going to do about it? We’ve had nearly two decades of high roading and it’s gotten us to a demonstrably worse place. Neither leftists nor the people the republicans intend to harm can afford for us to take the high road off a cliff. Stop expecting anything but hypocrisy or trying to show them how wrong they are. Stop letting them lead you around by the nose with reactions. Start focusing on what we’re going to do, start focusing on leading us somewhere new.
Anyone who mentions Hillary and her emails after signalgate and this fucking shit needs to have their ass whooped.
This admin is such a bunch of amateurs. School kids in mock governments would take their jobs more seriously and do a better job.
BUTTERY MALES!!!
THIS IS WORSE BECAUSE A DEMONCRAT DID IT!!!
The GOPs favorite strip club
Don’t misgender him…
BUTT TIZZY MALES!!!
Jesus fucking Christ is everyone a complete idi- . . . oh.
Yes. Yes everyone is a complete idiot.
Shit.
Buttery males!
BUTWHATABOUTHILLARYBLARARARAGGGHHH
Hilary is laughing her ass off right now.
No, Hilary is facepalming with a “Jesus tapdancing Christ” right now
I think her response was literally “Jesus Christ are you serious?” About the signal thing, if they do nothing here she can sue for malicious prosecution and probably succeed under ftca.
Are all the people in the White house technology challenged? Seems super risky to be giving these people that much power with sensitive information in a world with serious cyber threats.
I wouldn’t be trusting a bitcoin with that crew.
Keeping inept morons and malicious actors out of the White House pretty much falls to the political parties and the voters.
Unfortunately being a scumbag asshole is a huge positive for a lot of Americans now.
They are just as inept and uneducated with communications technology as the Senate, but they also have the ignorant hubris to do what they think is right instead of listening to security experts because to them they are wealthy and politically powerful so they stupidly assume they are competent and informed enough to override the consensus of experts. They do the same thing with hurricane projections, vaccines, scientific research and education funding, reproductive rights, etc.
Copy and pasting from a similar thread - tldr is that lapses in infosec are fucked because it’s a direct attack on YOUR security; and any official info running through other-than-official channels is fucked because that’s an attack on your rights as a citizen by circumventing FOIA or accountability. When that happens, you should be pissed off regardless of which side of the aisle the culprit resides on.
Anyway…
I keep seeing Hillary’s server brought up to highlight the red team’s hypocrisy, but there’s some introspection to be had for us as well on that topic.
Hillary’s email server was one of many stepping stones on the path of increasingly fucked infosec. Now, the vast majority of neanderthals foaming at the mouth over her emails only gave a damn about it because of the (D) next to her name, but those idiots getting angry at it for the wrong reasons doesn’t mean it wasn’t a big deal.
My perspective on all that when the story was first breaking: I was fairly new e-nothing junior enlisted medic in the USAF. The closest thing to classified info I ever dealt with was ‘confidential’ medical shit covered by HIPAA, and like people’s social security numbers. That’s it. But even with zero-access to military secrets, at the absolute rock-bottom of the chain of command, I still had to take lengthy infosec courses every year (or every quarter? idr) to ensure I knew how to identify and properly handle classified information. Fuckups in infosec are NOT tolerated: like if I took a single page of classified info home without authorization, that’d be a court martial / potential jail time / stripped of rank / dishonorable discharge level offense. Then we have a fucking Secretary of State - someone who handles classified info all the time and should be a subject matter expert on the do’s and don’ts of it - running her own shady-ass server away from the prying eyes of FOIA, claiming to not recognize classified indicators?? Then before anything could be done about it, we got the whole bleach-bit and hammer-to-harddrives scene, so some nice destruction of evidence as the cherry on top.
100% we should have crucified her.
Just like we should have crucified the dipshits before her using private email platforms like gmail or some shit to send or receive official / classified communication. Every one of those fuckers knew better.
Then Trump happens and makes everything prior, Hillary and all, look like fucking j-walking compared to the scale and blatancy of his crimes. ‘Crucified’ doesn’t even begin to describe what needs to happen to that fucking traitor.
…but the dismissiveness regarding the email server does kinda strike a nerve for me - she fucked up BAD, and we dropped the ball by not holding her accountable, as that left the door open for dipshits like Trump to continue the trend of worse and worse infosec.
Again, it’s peanuts compared to Trump - I hate writing shit like this for even the flicker of a possibility of drawing a false equivalence. There is no equivalence here. But I really wish we’d collectively change our tone about handwaving the ‘buttery males!’ shit because it is hypocritical to do that and then get pissy about the red team’s conceptually-similar-albeit-orders-of-magnitude-more-severe fuckups.
At the end of the day, we should expect our leaders to do their job and do it correctly. If they don’t, then get angry - it’s your security they’re playing with. None of them get the benefit of the doubt, regardless of which color their campaign stickers are.
Geeeez, those males are soaked in margarine
100% OPSEC OORAH
Here’s the archive link for the original WP article on this for anyone who wants to read the full article.
GOP: National security is our utmost priority!
Meanwhile:
it probably just got sucked in. you know how sometimes your Gmail account gets sucked in? it got sucked in.
huh??
it was his “explanation” for the war plan leaks to the Atlantic. apparently the editor’s number just got “sucked in” to the group chat. that’s a direct quote. no one knows wtf it means but he said like this just happens sometimes. it gets sucked in.
A lot of MAGA sucking going on.
thanks for the explanation. wow…
This is okay because it’s not a personal server.
This is ok because it’s us and not them.
Self-hosted?
