Make no mistake, if they get away with brutalizing trans people like this, they'll come for everyone of every marginalized group, including you and me.

The thing about security conferences like Black Hat, which took Las Vegas by storm this week, is that you end up seeing some nuanced, technical things that seem like they don't matter but actually do, and then you see other things that are just terrifying beyond belief.

07.08.2025 21:26 โ ๐ 15 ๐ 8 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0the thing about describing someone as "awful online but delightful in-person" is that every single time it just means the person is putting up a facade IRL where it's only a matter of time until the facade starts cracking.
if a person is telling you that they are awful, you should believe them.
This reaction tells me a bunch of you haven't seen it either and you should!

"Elon Musk has platformed white supremacists and antisemites on X. He got rid of all the moderation. He put back accounts that were clearly neo-Nazis. He's changed algorithms to promote that type of hate. Him and DOGE did massive cuts in the government, including our civil services. He's cut cancer research. Did I mention he was a giant piece of shit?" "He's cut our aid to Africa, which Will result, without exaggeration, in millions of women and children and innocent people dying. Millions," he said. "I'm not a big fan of people who give the Hitler salute. I mean, I'm kind of fussy like that. He gave it twice at Trump's inauguration," he continued. "He's a Nazi. And he cheats at video games. You have another question?"
