llllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooollllllllllllllll

the the nation article about the dnc hacking is some bullshit, the "data analyst expert" the information is sourced from is an anonymous nobody who calls themselves The Forensicator, they are an r/the_donald poster, and none of the poo poo they discovered is meaningful in any way. it doesnt take ex-nsa to look at the "time of last edit" metadata of a file. there is no positive evidence that the files were initially copied onto a flash drive, just that at some point they were copied from one computer to another location on a local network. it's being pushed by seth rich conspiracy theorists and their story about the "truth" is not even internally consistent.

know of any sources that go over this? i know a few people buying into it who arent pro-trump but seem to be jumping on it for some reason and i dont know enough about email pornmachines to figure it out or explain poo poo to them
(fwiw im not a computer scientist or a networking expert but nothing i looked up while reading into the article was particularly complicated)

if you follow the citation to The Forensicator's blog it shows what his "investigation" consists of. basically, he looked at the time stamps of of when the files (specifically, DNC computer files released publicly by "Guccifer 2.0" (who also is a fake hacker made up by the dnc to pin the leak on russia hacking in this theory)) were created / last edited. thats pretty much it. the claims made are that 1) because all of the timestamps are recorded in eastern standard time, that means that they simply must have been copied onto another computer or file system configured to record time in EST. this is notable apparently because if Russian Hackers had downloaded the files directly to romania they wouldnt be recorded in EST or something. 2) the times recorded imply that the files were copied relatively quickly, so fast that it's would be Physically Impossible to have downloaded them through the internet from romania. whether or not this is true is apparently debatable, but it ignores the fact that a hacker would have probably compromised the network by moving through a random unsecured device (personal computer or maybe a fuckin printer) that got connected connected to the (probably otherwise secure) DNC network and would have had to download the files to the fully compromised device to move them out of the system anyway. apparently all this is evidence that the files got put onto a usb stick (perhaps the one that was not on Seth Rich's body after the shooting!?) and is evidence that a leaker copied the files rather than them being hacked.

my local DSA chapter shared the Nation article on facebook the other day also, so i looked into it. seems like its stupid r/the_donald nonsense that has been laundered up through a couple sources until it got picked up by a leftish "distrust the state" type, who wrote the article because he doesnt like the anti-russia sentiment that the hacking story has been encouraging lately. oddly the author makes up random details and touts the credibility of their sources even when it makes little sense to. i dont particularly trust the DNC or the intel community either, but without better sources or some evidence actually showing something of meaning, this article is little more than chud-theory that picked up traction amongst people who arent happy about the democrats.

nah im not a crazy angry racist i just very calmly drove across the country to protest in protection of a confederate monument. i went out and bought the tiki torch while discussing my nuanced views on race with the other literal nazis i was with. we were shouting and sieg hailing as a commentary on modernity, not because we actually like Hitler.

Lol, that Peter guy's life is ruined. At 20. For going to a loving Nazi rally. Lol.

im extremely hype to see the internal conflict between factions of the white nationalists over whether or not they should start wearing hoods to hide their identity under threat of doxxing.

suit nazi: think of the optics though, it will set our cause back and make us look more like a modern kkk! what you are saying will hamstring our ability to create real political change in this country. we must show our faces

boot nazi: gently caress you cia honeypot cuck. the cultural marxists are going to destroy my life by threatening my community college and get me fired from my job at the hotdog stand. dont be a shill

im sure the article is bad, but is this really making it about themselves, and what else would you expect them to say.

one of the most dumb things about leftist twitter is seeing all the "heh, white people am I right guys"

I just roll my eyes and move on with my day, but it seems like you can just say "lol white people" and left twitter eats it up

twitter has the ability to make any singular person's hot take seem like it's the prevailing wisdom of whatever group you associate it with. but 99.9% of tweets have no impact on the real world or are wholly irrelevant as soon as a couple more tweets bury them in the void.

for the sake of sanity i highly recommend not taking tweets by strangers very seriously, especially if the tweet is sub 50-100k retweets. when i started recognizing that i did not have to give serious regard to rando tweets my internet time became much less annoying

i dont think the libertarian owner of the top dog hot dog stand is a good ally just because he fired a nazi

nor do i think the CEOs of merck and intel are any less complicit in racial oppression and labor exploitation just because they suddenly realized that tormp bad

poo poo i wish you had told me this 11 hours ago, before i donated my entire years charitable-givings savings account to merck, intel, and hot dog store. i was just so filled with compassion in that moment, believing that these corporate entities / hot dog sellers were a force for good. but now i regret my choice, knowing that these economic agents are not actually very woke.

Well yeah I mean like he's obviously racist a. f. But the lines about needing the statues to learn from history and we will lose their beauty are boiler plate whiye supremacist pablum but usually it's with the wink nudge inner narrative of keeping them to uphold the white state and values, and that requires at least some awareness and guile. So I guess is it feels like Trump would be too stupid to see through the laughable veneer of the arguments he's repeating and just thinks they are correct on their face.

he believes the false narrative because he is stupid. he is not willing to challenge or think critically about the narrative because it supports his world view (that the war of southern secession wasnt a big deal and wasnt about slavery.) he is defensive about the statue because he feels camaraderie with the statue of robert e lee and anybody/anything that is ever called racist by anybody. like its a personal attack on him

How do I upload videos? Shots fired nearby

depending on the content, youtube (no visible violence) or live leak (easily visible violence, people bleeding or dying) are places to host

if you are still filming try doing live with youtube or with facebook. you can rewatch live streams later. save the footage and upload later when you have time. dont run into gunfire. good luck, goonsire.

how do they execute this ban?

apparently there was an issue in the oval office where random people could just print out and put random articles onto the presidents desk. donny kept skimming them and thinking they were like official white house information briefings. the new rule says that any info given to the president while he is working has to be vetted by someone else before it lands on his desk. he can still check whatever he wants on his phone tough
