    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.

    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.

    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

      Best part about Shitposting honestly.

      There’s the shitposters who post weird funny things and are here just having a laugh.

      Then the awful mofos who think Shitposting means they can be their true selves and post offensive garbage under the guise of Shitposting. Then they get called out, get really offended/flip out because they didn’t realize.

      It’s a great honey trap.

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

      True, but it is oh so satisfying when bad things happen to shitty people. Especially people finding out the true depth of their shitty. Even more satisfying when they complain about it.

      What a bad dichotomy.

      It’s not the same as “violating someone’s privacy” because that implies that these people shared something deliberately with someone they trusted, that wasn’t the case, this was stupid people posting shitty, hateful, vindictive or exploitative material in a semi-open space and not being careful about who they invite in. Fuck them, they deserve this lesson.

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

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

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

    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

      My leaked group chats are just messages of me abusing emojis and and reusing memes from 10 years ago

      Sounds like the solution is not to be a asshole while drunk? Or not be drunk? Or not be there to get recorded?

      Nobody forced you to do anything and take responsibility for your own actions.

      If you tend to behave a certain way when drunk that could make you incredibly embarrassed or have consequences in your life you don’t want… do you know what you should fucking do?

      Not get drunk around others.

      If you like sexist, racist or other kinds of humor and want to share it with friends who like the same things, you have to fucking accept that people might find out about it and share it with others. If you have anything in your life that you feel shame around, either learn to stop feeling shame about it, or stop sharing it. Those are your only options, acting like a potential victim about it makes you seem like a giant douche.

        Look, humans are inherently social beings. In public, there’s some pressure to behave the “correct” way, present an image. In private spaces with friends, you don’t have that pressure, you can unwind and make the occasional silly joke. That guy, however, betrayed the trust they gave him and TO and you say that’s their fault, for being silly with someone they trusted.

          Gonna share this again.

          This commenter said it best:

          To the people who think what OP did was completely normal and something everyone does, (and I hate to use this phrase) check the “ratio” here. Nobody thinks this is normal. You and OP are in the slim minority spewing vile shit about people in your lives. It’s cruel and childish. You’d be smart to learn from OP’s predicament before you find yourself in the exact same situation with everyone you know hating you because you thought it was perfectly normal to constantly trash talk them behind their back. It’s not normal. Not everyone is doing it. Assholes like OP and apparently yourself are doing it. And it clearly can bite you in the ass. As I said in my initial comment, these kinds of things can have serious real world consequences. So you may wanna wise up and start being a respectable human being ;)

            It’s wild how many people feel entitled to just do or say whatever they want without repercussions, and then make themselves into victims when they do face those consequences.

            This user above is obviously one of those who are bristling because they realize they are vulnerable to this exact thing… it’s very telling, the people who rage at the idea of having their “private” content leaked are always the ones with the worst private content.

          None of this says anything to this discussion, none of this provides new context for this situation.

          In private spaces with friends, you don’t have that pressure,

          Fine, but that doesn’t take away the risk of something you and your shitty friends saying or doing getting out of your special, controlled space. And the very fact that you worry about containment should be some kind of warning that you’re risking trouble. That should be something that crosses your mind any time you share anything with anyone else, “trusted” scuzzy friend or not. You can’t control what other people say and do, you can’t expect even people you trust to not make mistakes, so again, the crux of it is you cannot share things that could potentially have negative consequences if brought to light. It’s on you. You should have taken more care with what you shared and who you shared it with.

          I’m sorry if that hard life fact makes you feel potentially victimized by others or less capable of telling your raunchy jokes without pausing to make sure you’re not setting yourself up for problems, but that’s literally growing up. Yes, it sucks, it’s okay to be sad about it. Life isn’t carefree unless you actually don’t care.

          the occasional silly joke

          You have no idea what was shared here, you have no idea if your “silly jokes” might do a lot of harm if the wrong person sees them, so maybe you need to figure out what actually constitutes “silly” and understand your own sense of humor shouldn’t be a standard, because if you’re one of those people who say hurtful things, then blame others for being offended, that makes you a giant pile of steaming shit of a human being, the kind of person YOU would hate, and I don’t think you want to be that, so again, this is just a warning, not a condemnation. It’s very easy to become that which we would hate if the roles were switched.

          That guy, however, betrayed the trust they gave him and TO and you say that’s their fault, for being silly with someone they trusted.

          Your use of the word “silly” is doing so much heavy-lifting here I hope you’re paying it overtime.

          And just because you extend trust, doesn’t mean you’re owed anything, doesn’t mean you extended that trust properly, if you just extend trust to just anyone you meet who you seem to like, when the consequences could get the whole internet talking about you, MAAAAYBE you’re bad at all of this.
