Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Finally, a good data breach.

[–] saigot@lemmy.ca 145 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Hey there was also that pink power ranger leaking the white supremacist dating site.

[–] dublet@lemmy.world 29 points 3 weeks ago

pink power ranger

I wonder what the other ones are up to.

The power rangers introducing themselves, "Blue power!", "Red power!", "Green power!", "Uh well, hi"

[–] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 19 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Oh they breached that data good. Breached it so hard there eas nothing left.

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 17 points 3 weeks ago

Someone should compare the two. I'm sure there's some overlap.

[–] Meron35@lemmy.world 21 points 3 weeks ago

The recruitment websites of right wing militant groups have such poor security that leaks happen all the time. Perhaps unsurprisingly, 2/3 of the Oath Keepers are former military and/or law enforcement officers. The leak obtained by DDOSecrets included membership ID, membership type, name, physical and email address, and join date.

Inside The Pro-Trump Militant Group The Oath Keepers - The Atlantic - https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2020/11/right-wing-militias-civil-war/616473/

The database leak included such granular detail that economists have been able to study their firm-like behaviours, including

  • running discount codes for memberships
  • promises of pre-order welcome packages that are never fulfilled
  • "Tiers" of membership types

There's been a lot of those. Some more easily accessible than others.

The book Hacks, Leaks, and Revelations: The Art of Analyzing Hacked and Leaked Data is rather interesting and Micah delves into how you might contribute in analyzing the data...

Article indicates the data was sent directly to ICE List and they’ll post it Tuesday night (tonight)

[–] RaskolnikovsAxe@lemmy.ca 119 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

FUCK YES.

Someone get on this right away and catalogue how many of these fuckwit numpties are also Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, neo-Nazis, 3%ers, Boogaloos, Patriot Fronters, etc.

I notice a lot fewer of these people anywhere now, it's like they just disappeared...where are the counter protests? Whatever could be keeping them busy?

[–] Earthman_Jim@lemmy.zip 53 points 3 weeks ago

I would like to see a list cross referencing J6ers to current ICE tools.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 26 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I would love to see their criminal history. Many of them probably have sexual and other violence rap sheets for days.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 22 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Lots of domestic violence.

I'd also wonder how many pardoned J6ers are on their ranks.

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

Spot fucking on! +1!!! After ICE is shut down, the unions and any decent company should maintain the list for "do not fucking hire."

He said individual reports from the public have also “spiked” “a lot” since Good’s shooting. “I’ve had hotel staff sending post-it notes, bar staff sending DHS IDs, and loads of people saying their neighbour is an agent,” he said.

Heartwarming :) May their lives be miserable.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 21 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Love that the “report your neighbor” SS is getting the tables turned on them.

[–] mvilain@fedia.io 70 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Time to start sending "GTFO" letters to their homes, schools, and churches. Let the communities they live in know what pieces of shit they are.

[–] frustrated_phagocytosis@fedia.io 18 points 3 weeks ago

Follow them to the store, asking if they're a US citizen and ignore any responses, just keep asking again and again like you didn't hear anything. Go in stores and restaurants ahead of them and announce that ICE is here.

Is known murderer Jonathan Ross in there?

[–] BedSharkPal@lemmy.ca 26 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

Sure they wouldn't leak the details of the murderer Jonathan Ross!

Sounds like they should be ready for some door-to-door operations. I'm sure they'll reap only that which they have sown.

Aww, so sad. Wouldn't it be a shame if someone starting breaking down their doors with no warrant or cause?

Do not engage in violence with them. Make their lives miserable without violence. Let their communities know who they are, expose them to their neighbors, make them become pariahs. Some will live in places that root for them, but many will be "normal" people to the eyes of everyone, hiding their shit because they know their communities will despise them.

There is where they can be hurt. Make their spouses lose their job for being an ICE spouse, make their kids ask uncomfortable questions. Make their neighbors avoid them.

[–] DERRALEXANO@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

They will write a book about how persecuted they are and then raise a $100,000 on gofundme. Ghouls the lot of them.

[–] TheOakTree@lemmy.zip 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You beat me to it. Fortunately, I don't the majority of the MAGA base can afford to do it too often, so we just need to ramp up the intensity and frequency.

Make their spouses lose their job for being an ICE spouse

I suspect a non-trivial percentage of the spouses may be victims in abusive reltionships - the loss of employment could make it harder to extract themselves and their kids from the situation.

make their kids ask uncomfortable questions.

as long as the kids are not harrased and they start asking because daddy is a piece of shit? 100% 👍

Make their neighbors avoid them

ab-so-fucking-lutely!

I look forward to MAGA Hunters. Heck, make it into a videogame, where the profiles and rap sheets of these fuckers are used for wanted posters.

Here's hoping we get a torrent of this data.

[–] TheKaul@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 3 weeks ago

Putting up the info of these people on Wanted posters is such a great idea. If I'm able to get my hands on this info I know exactly what I'm doing lol.

[–] IHeartBadCode@fedia.io 26 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

[–] DERRALEXANO@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 weeks ago

Ya don’t they know whistleblowing is illlegal under the regime.

[–] BigTurkeyLove@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh hell ya baby, they deserve that heat! Hope it gets released.

[–] the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

Post it everywhere, print it out and leave it in public places, don't let them have a moments peace.

Couldn't happen to a nicer group of Nazis.

Anyone know where the file is?

[–] vimmiewimmie@slrpnk.net 19 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

From the article, it seems like it's been sent to:
