I guess it’s because his Discord server was where he leaked them? I feel like someone who doesn’t use Discord could read this headline and assume he worked for the company, though.

Especially when sites like Reddit/StackExchange use admin to mean employee and moderator to mean volunteer community leader.

Although Teixeira asked Discord members not to share the documents, an investigative journalism group, Bellingcat, found that Teixeira’s friends spread the documents widely, first to other Discord servers, then to Telegram, 4Chan, and Twitter (now called X).
What’s the saying? Three can keep a secret if two of them are dead?
Trump got 4 years of presidency in the US, which is definitely the more extreme punishment. It’s something I would never wish upon my worst enemy

If I were a narcissist like Trump then I would love to be the President: I could set up all my family and friends with 7 figure jobs, I’d buy a hotel and then force the SS to rent out the entire building at 10x the normal rates, I could spend most of my time golfing, I could chat with my buddy Putin on the phone every day, etc.
Are there shitty parts to the job? Sure, but is it better than being a powerless wage slave to a soulless corporation? Absolutely yes.

Situation - You run a discord server for alt right and weirdly obsessed about the military dudes. You have a secret clearance. Do you -
[ ] Share secret intel with people who have no need to see or know about it
[ ] Do nothing
Note: There are no political or military reasons to share this info, only ego boosting yourself. 30 seconds on the clock.

Honestly I question the sanity of allowing a child to have an actual clearanced job and not brag about it to his friends. Mentally you’re pretty much a kid until you’re about 25 or so if you’re AMAB.
I’m concerned that higher clearances aren’t checking people for signs of stupid viewpoints before they’re cleared.

It is absurd to refer to this person as “Discord admin”.
It’s like saying “email-address owner gets 15 years for…”.

I mean, I use Discord pretty much every day, and that’s what I assumed.

And trump got… Yeah that’s right was never charged…
Our government is so toothless and corrupt
It’s like you’re going straight from the later period corrupt Roman Republic to one of the ineffectual incest emperors.
