The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme

I really thought this was going to be a satire post about the Yemen bombing Signal chat group leak based off the reddit title.

If the contents of my friends' group chat got leaked... people would just think we're fucking idiots, not terrible people.

Good work, Derek. Be better, losers in that chat.

If I had to explain some of my in-group chats, it would be complicated and awkward, but not life-destroying.

Oh no. The consequences of my own actions have come back to haunt me

I once had a group chat that got leaked. There's a possibility that it may have involved some light treason.

To narcissists, everything is someone else's fault.

I thought this was going to be satire about the Atlantic editor being accidentally included in war room group chats. Lol.

Derek sounds like a real one. That poster lacks so much situational awareness they'd fall into an open manhole like in a cartoon.

The world needs more Dereks

Wow this must be the biggest group text leak ever.

Shitposting is just pretending to be stupid/racist/shitty for laughs/attention, right? Pretty low form of humor, if you ask me (no one did), but I'm also guessing a lot of shitposters aren't just pretending.

I like a laugh as much as the next person, but we can't sit around going "Why are people in this country so fucking stupid/racist/shitty?" while simultaneously elevating "acting" stupid to some high form of humor. You see how that's counterproductive, right?

“Infidelity does not consist in believing, or in disbelieving; it consists in professing to believe what he does not believe. It is impossible to calculate the moral mischief, if I may so express it, that mental lying has produced in society. When a man has so far corrupted and prostituted the chastity of his mind, as to subscribe his professional belief to things he does not believe, he has prepared himself for the commission of every other crime.” - Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason

“Any community that gets its laughs by pretending to be idiots will eventually be flooded by actual idiots who mistakenly believe that they're in good company.” - Jason Garrett-Glaser

Still not sure whether OP is Pete Hegseth.

Pete Hegseth, is that you?

Thought at first that its a meme about the signal groupchat that was leaked currently and then read its discord and its 1 year old.

Derek sounds like a cool guy.

Don’t talk shit about people behind their back. It always has a way of getting out because it’s clearly how you feel when their is no filter in place.

I suddenly feel better about my group chats, it's all gay memes, positivity and anti-capitalist revolution.

I sure hope Derek wears a cape.

Can't have my group chats leaked if I don't have any!

Leaking PMs between you and an ex is a dick move 😵

I would love for my 40k groups five year group chat to be leaked. My theories about Alpharius is valid I tell you.

Nononono, dont go! We haven't even gotten to the part with Valdor, and the Emperor yet.

never admit to the group chat leaks.

Always be shitposting. They can never catch you offguard if you don't stop.

Disappearing messages people!

Derek getting mad laid now.

There’s always two group chats, one for everyone and one for the people you want to talk to. And if you think that doesn’t happen I have some bad news for you.

My groups collective chats are more of a microcosm of meme culture at the given time, sort of a petri dish of various meme strains fighting for (limited) mental resources.

If my group chats got leaked they would just think we were all idiots who love vehicles and watching people get hurt or make really dark jokes.

Nothing really personal other than always posting really cringe crap and then tagging someone who we know it'll piss off and telling them that it reminded us of them.

Yeesh

i wouldn't have guessed that reading the comments of this would lead to blocking another lemmyworld user. it's amazing how much better a conversation can be when you get rid of the actual shit

Are you 'Derek'?

It's a good thing. Kind seeks kind. Don't be afraid to be who you are.

Good guy Derek

Derek is the fucking GOAT

Group chat got leaked

I would never feel bad about that, have you ever had girls show you their gcs? I'm traumatized

fuck you derek

Violating someone's privacy doesn't suddenly become OK just because they're a shitty person...

This is a leave a guy in the middle of a desert moment.

They called him brother that changes everything lol

@TO: would you like being recorded while drunk? This is pretty much the same.

Thought this was parity until I saw it was 1yr old

LOL private chat with 8 people.

You don't even need a Derek, all you have to do is have one of the 8 perceive that they are being wronged. One's mate makes googly eyes at another, next thing you know, it's all public.

Never post anything anywhere if it ever getting out will fuck you.

Nothing is private and you should strive to be the kind of person that doesn't say shit about other people behind their backs.

U
