Fucking gold.
The last 3 years of “White Supremacy” has me questioning the narrative on White Competency.
[WhiteDate had] A gender ratio that makes the Smurf village look like a feminist utopia
Lol. I like this Martha Root, I wish her many more happy hacking years.
All while wearing a Mighty Morphin’ Pink Ranger costume - people DON’T call her a Power Ranger for nothing
Finally, someone who understands that you have to disrupt the infrastructure for Nazis. It’s like the Ram Ranch Resistance. People have to disrupt Nazis and their gatherings.
“They publicly delete all my websites while the audience rejoices. This is cyberterrorism,” the administrator wrote on X
Lmao mald harder
The terrorist suddenly pays the victim when their terrorist site is taken down.
The number one skill of every nazi and fashit is pretending to be victims
I mean, it is technically true, but in a trial with a jury of peers it wouldn’t matter. This reminds me of the old school outlaw definition. If you were declared an outlaw the laws of the land no longer applied to you. You could commit crimes, but it also meant anyone and everyone could commit crimes against you without repercussions. It was a bit of a given that you would commit crimes because if you were declared an outlaw you probably were already committing crimes, but now anyone could rob, harm, or even kill you and it wouldn’t be a crime.
I say fuck these neo-nazis but this is cyber terrorism technically.
I call it self-defense, honestly.
Eh, I want to like this statement because I hate these people, but I can’t in good conscious call it something it isn’t. This sort of thing is the essence of debate because we have good people doing bad things to bad people and then have to justify why it’s ok despite it being bad. It’s justice vs righteousness, it’s lawful neutral vs lawful good. The only reason why this is acceptable is because it’s against people that we deem not worthy of legal protection, but as a precedent that’s dangerous territory. As soon as the definition of people not worthy of legal protection changes it suddenly becomes a problem.
At it’s core this person probably committed a crime, but people don’t care because it’s against a bad ideologue. It’s like if we said it’s ok to round up and execute neo-nazis, a lot of people would rejoice, but if you change that to most any other group they would cry about human rights. At the end of the day rounding up and killing anyone is a bad thing no matter who it’s against.
At some point the scales will not balance well and you need to be ok with that. There is no paradox of intolerance, for example, because tolerance is itself part of a social contract that bigots broke all on their own and once that’s out the window they do not get to reap the benefits of it. Social contracts aren’t easy math but they do make sense.
This isn’t blowing up a furry website because someone thinks that’s weird. White supremacy is an incredibly dangerous ideology that has no place in whatever better society we claim to be aiming for. No one killed them for it, either. White supremacy built a website and a better person removed that website the same way one might paint over a swastika but leave the nice mural.
I agree with the sentiment, but sadly can’t agree with the implementation. Laws exist in a neutral environment, you can’t bypass them just because the other party is someone society disagrees with. Even if they are committing crimes you can’t unilaterally exact justice against them due to vigilante laws.
This event took place in Germany, Crimical Code §§ 202a-d criminalizes unauthorized access, interception, and manipulation of data, with penalties ranging from fines to imprisonment, covering acts like phishing and data espionage. Within German law this should be a crime. Germany has laws against neo-nazis, but this would be vigilantism which Germany also prohibits.
It’s a slippery slope to ignore your own laws because they support the popular narrative.
Even if they are committing crimes you can’t unilaterally exact justice against them due to vigilante laws.
You can actually, self-defense to stop someone from committing a felony is legal in the US.
In no court in the world would you be able to say you were acting in self-defense while acting from 6000 km away.
The Pink Ranger was always my favourite 😏

Root also published the data allegedly scraped from WhiteDate online.
The hacker said that they scraped WhiteDate’s public data and found “poor cybersecurity hygiene that would make even your grandma’s AOL account blush.” Root said that users’ images included precise geolocation metadata that “practically hands out home addresses with a side of awkward selfies.”
“Imagine calling yourselves the ‘master race’ but forgetting to secure your own website — maybe try mastering to host WordPress before world domination,” Root wrote.
I need more hackers doing this. Great work.
I’m thoroughly confused about WhiteDeal.
A service where one contracts other white supremacists to do menial ad hoc jobs for a cost under the market price just seems so very antithetical to the whole “supremacy” thing.
I think it makes some sense. To be a white supremacist, you have to not think too hard. To be a libertarian and against minimum wage, you have to not think too hard.
This is part of our problem as a country. Everyone has to fit into a box. I am a Libertarian, but I also believe in a universal basic income along with a minimum wage. I believe that a fiscally responsible government can and should provide basic services to its constituency.
While it is possible to self-identify as a libertarian and hold those beliefs, you have to understand that it disagrees with the general concepts of libertarianism as understood by other people.
To put it another way, you sound a little bit like a vegan eating tuna.
Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to agree with every single guiding principle of a party to be a part of it. Most of the country isn’t on the left or the right.
Most of us are in the middle and only vote for one party or another out of FUD. I am done with that shit. I vote for the person I think is best for the job.
Yeah … I know someone else already said this but you’re absolutely not a Libertarian. So, good news, you can throw that box out and realign your language.
Also, I get that it’s a talking point but I think everyone believes in a fiscally responsible government. It’s just some weird right wing double think trick people say to imply the other side does not want that when in reality the Dems (if we’re framing this through an American lens) want fiscal responsibility just as much as any other party or persons.
You don’t know anything about me other than the fact that I support two social programs. Who are you to say who or what I am?
Yes, those programs are absolutely not something that the Libertarian party would ever endorse. That doesn’t mean I don’t have the same belief in smaller government, states rights, and fiscal responsibility. I belong to the Libertarian party, that doesn’t mean I have to BE the Libertarian party.
Ok … So you’re mad I said you’re not a Libertarian and now you’re just explaining how you’re not a Libertarian?
Truthfully, it really doesn’t matter what you think of me or my views. My whole point is that the lines between parties is not nearly as cut and dry as people seem to believe.
Just because someone is pro-choice doesn’t mean they aren’t a Republican. If they believe in universal healthcare, it doesn’t make them a Democrat.
Thanks for the conversation.
haha. then you’re not a libertarian.
This implies they could have done it earlier…
My guess is they started the site in the first place.
I will call it censorship, how we know who is nazi whiteout allowing them express themselves ? Let them speak so we can know !
Free speech absolutism is bullshit. It only empowers bigots.
The irony of tolerating intolerant people to exist openly is that it actually erodes tolerance overall
how and why did I start reading xitler messages
infosec is full of jews
lol if he thinks the jews have infiltrated wait till he finds out how deep the gay atheist conspiracy goes
Hope they dumped their shit on the dark web
No, they didn’t dump it on the dark web. They‘ve dumped it on the regular web instead: https://okstupid.lol/
Even better, thanks.

Oof
A gender ratio that makes the Smurf village look like a feminist utopia
I cackled
Not that I’m against but isn’t this illegal? Probably shouldn’t showcase it publicly
Yeah she probably should have worn a mask and used a baller pseudonym like “Root”
Yes, it’s illegal, the law absolutely would defend nazis, which is why it does not deserve our respect. Anyone who publicly breaks the law to do a good thing is a hero and deserves our respect.
