How Activist DeRay Mckesson's Twitter Account Was Hacked
Racial justice activist DeRay Mckesson became the most recent victim of a high-profile Twitter account hack. Mckesson this week started to endorse for Donald Trump and posted a self-defamatory tweet. Later he announced that his account was hacked. What's interesting about this hack was that Mckesson had two-factor authentication enabled on "all" of his accounts. Hackers apparently resorted to a much-sophisticated attack: Hacker or hackers were able to take over by convincing Verizon to reset his SIM. With the SIM reset, the person responsible was able to receive text messages intended for Mckesson and therefore bypass the two-factor authentication the activist used to keep his account secure.
I know some people leave their phones laying all about, but good luck getting the SIM out of my phone without me being aware of it, or dead.
What the frick has happened to this site? I know slashdot has always been left leaning, but this...
"Racial justice activist DeRay Mckesson became the most recent victim of a high-profile Twitter account hack."
This man advocates violence against whites. This man advocates killing whites. This man is as much of a racist as the people he whines about--moreso, because most whites do not go on rants on the internet using their real identities about killing blacks. And before you claim it's satire, it isn't. If you say it's "harmless" or "balancing the scales" or some other nonsense about how this is okay for him to do because he's black, then you are a hypocrite arguing for special pleading.
He deserves exactly as much attention as you would afford someone from, say, coontown in your news feed: none.
Racism and violence are OK if you're on the Left. In fact it's celebrated.
Because you're on the 'correct' side and the ends justify the means, just as they always have with the Left.
Just listen to a Louis Farrakhan speech or a New Black Panthers speech, or heck, even Obama's long-time (until people started paying attention) minister Rev. Wright.
Compared to them, Trump is a racial peace-maker.
It worked well for Obama.
Twice.
If you think I voted for Trump because of this post, you're wrong. I voted for Dr. Jill Stein of the Green Party. Again.
A brave slashdot fucktard is here to save us from people who point out racism is still a problem. Tip of the fedora, kind sir!!!
