WarThunder is ripe with military nerds that love being right about their favourite tank/plane/whatever. Sometimes, these nerds have access to official documents proving that they're right. And sometimes these nerds go on to post classified military intel for the sake of being right.
Whatās the post frequency like? At some point you freaking quarantine every new postā¦
I know that saying āyou shut down your businessā pretty much but if youāre in the country whose secrets are being leaked you might prefer being limited to a few dozen posts a day compared to dying in an air raid
What a wasted opportunity. The angle should have been "Top secret military plans intentionally leaked to the liberal media". The MAGAs would have sent poor little Pete to prison and the cabinet would be eyeing each other with distrust for the next four years.
I'm not excusing the email server, but this is absolutely worse. Planning an operation like this on unsecured phones in an app that won't leave a paper trail and accidentally leaving an uncleared person in the chat... Holy fuck
One time I forgot to remove a mod from the mod chat of my personal discord server when my friends and I talked about banning him due to his rapid spiral into the alt right.
Now that was awkward, but holy shit is sending war plans via group chat so much worse.
Yeah, but if itās this difficult for a white cis-het man to not text top secret documents to the wrong person, imagine how many times a DEI hire would have done it by now.
I recently saw Adam Savage's site was selling demerit patches for the workshop.
I think it would be funny to see a bunch of military demerit patches designed for the dumb shit Hegseth does. They could be sewn to his prison shirt if y'all manage to get him in prison eventually.
I'm confused, are we mocking him because he's incompetent or because he was caught driving under the influence? I can't prepare pithy remarks until I have more data!

They already are eyeing eachother with distrust.

Brilliant, leak the plans so the enemy will think itās a fake, then do it anyways. Like a reverse mincemeat

The last thing the enemy will expect is a 8th suicidal charge into their defensive positions! It is a brilliant plan!

Let's ask Gen. Brown Jr. how many times he has leaked war plans through messengers. I am sure he could go on for hours.

Off topic: Why is there a "gift" code and various tracking paramters in the url?
Url does seem to work without them: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/03/trump-administration-accidentally-texted-me-its-war-plans/682151/
conicalscientist@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 1y
The gift code means a subscriber is sharing access to the content.
Though I don't doubt the sites use this as a double purpose for tracking.

In
20272017 Trump had to replace all of his principals, either due to scandal or because they disagreed with him.It sounds like Hegseth is going to get ousted due to sheer incompetence.
Unless highlighting Hegseth's diminished capacity might draw attention to Trump's.
