How is it going to backfire? Are there tangible consequences for anyone involved? Doesn’t seem like it.
Comment on Filing: DOGE broke Treasury policy with unencrypted email

I’m just waiting for these incompetent fuckwits at DOGE to fuck something up so catastrophically that it backfires on them tenfold. I’d take GeekSquad running the government over these guys.

They start being hunted down.

That doesn’t happen in America. They’d rather wait for some magical government institution to save them. Canadian cities protested at Tesla dealerships this past weekend harder than any Americans did for their own country in this last couple of months.
My only conclusion I can come to as a non-American is that the vast majority of Americans want this and approve of this either fully or somewhat.

On the protest side, Americans are turning out in droves across the nation regularly. At capitol buildings and Tesla centers and more. Our media just doesn’t over it because they’re trying to squash the efforts.
Despite that, I’m still making plans to leave the country.

Because American police do not fuck around, they do a little more than ask you politely to stop. Nowadays protesting in America could get you killed or handicaped. They don’t care how old you are either, they won’t aim their rubber bullets at the ground like they’re supposed to, (that is, if they are using rubber bullets) they will kill if they feel remotely “threatened”. But Yea, all Americans are fat, stupid, ignorant, inbred, Bible-thumping, morons that just love watching the world burn, they all adore what’s happening.

I’m barely an engineer but I can guarantee you that anyone with the ability to build a single actual functional server could run stuff better than these clowns. they fucked up so badly that they exposed a open mail relay to the entire fucking NOAA. I’m a dumb removed but that is beyond belief, if I did anything nearly as reckless as that on a corp network I’d be in handcuffs before the top of the hour.
this isn’t just risky - this is begging to be plundered.

You’re a dumb removed? You need to join a better instance.

I am hopeful but seriously the Trumpers are so invested in the cult I think they would justify anything. If they completely destroy social security and medicare leaving 3/4 of Trump voters completely fucked I think they would justify it to themselves that it is just a sacrifice for the greater good. Sure they can no longer afford to eat or buy meds but the new Jesus said it is for the best.

tenfold? imagine if an adversary had free and unfettered access to every network those morons have touched…
oh. right. the adversary is already there.
