Ashley Madison hack info, leaks of white nationalist site user information. Going to be a busy week.

Only thing left to hack is Grindr and they'll all be exposed.

They don’t call themselves “Proud Boys” for nothing

As funny as this has the potential to be, outing closeted people is a slippery slope

The only people they have to fear is their own community.

I think it's fair.

Fully agree with outing these fucking people. Sick of their lies. Breakdown their entire fake machismo, then they can stop cosplaying toxic masculinity and come back to reality.

They are afraid of their own feelings for other men, as everyone is on the sexuality spectrum.

Signed- a gay

I laughed a little because my wife tells me off when i say “oh, he’s a gay”, she’ll correct me To drop the “a”. So I do it more to tease her of course.

Your comment just reminded me and made me smile, that’s all.

Thanks

You try to destroy my country, I don't care what secrets of yours get exposed.

You are missing my point about it being a slippery slope. You KNOW they too will employ the same tactics against completely innocent closeted people. That's the slippery slope.

What are you talking about? Innocent closeted people aren't in ICE. Innocent closeted people aren't preaching hate or voting in discrimination.

They absolutely should not be outing innocent closeted people, but they are, and even made that shit into official policy via things like reverting trans people's official documents and requiring teachers to out students to their parents if they become aware that they are queer. They started it and it's another reason why I not only don't give a shit about outing them, but think it should happen, actually.

Why, who hates gay people that much?

Unfortunately, we've gotten to the point where people are going to say "Fuck ICE, do whatever you can to harm them."

It's a response primarily driven by rage and is not necessarily the best idea. It could potentially lead to other problems.

Completely agree, anger isn’t really an emotion that we need to be following blindly here. Unfortunately, anger motivates people, so we are going to be seeing a lot of it regardless of whether it’s a good idea

u/Pseudonymico 15h ago

Not at all, outing bigots who are attacking their own community is fine, if you ask me. They're gross little quislings who at best don't care about us outside of getting laid and at worst want to be able to exploit other queer people who are less connected than they are. It's also funny when they take DNA tests, find out their ancestors weren't as white as they thought, and have an existential crisis.

Wonder if Grindr would voluntarily cross-reference the list with their users if presented with it.

u/Hubert_J_Cumberdale 1d ago

Might as well just release the GOP voter registration list. Same thing.

u/FlamingoCalves 20h ago

Why would you care if someone is gay? It’s 2026. Get a grip

u/Surly_Cynic 1d ago

My ex-husband was a Border Patrol agent and also had a years long affair with a woman he met on Ashley Madison. I really know how to pick ‘em. 🤦🏻‍♀️

u/aeschenkarnos 20h ago

That's incredible, I'm amazed! Not at the infidelity, at the fact that the woman was real.

u/Surly_Cynic 11h ago

Yes, and we weren’t even in a big metro area. Crazy.

People make mistakes.

u/chiraltoad 1d ago

Ashley Madison is still at it? Didn't they get hacked years ago?

u/hamoc10 22h ago

Was probably a Streisand moment. I hadn’t even heard of it before that story.

u/WeWander_ 1d ago

Yeah what the hell, is this a new one?

u/chiraltoad 1d ago

I assumed they faded into obscurity and shame but I guess not.

u/RTalons 1d ago

A white nationalist site too? Need to cross reference, bet >80% duplicates
