Hey bud.
Don't say incriminating things on social media just because you're behind a username.
The glowies are watching, and the Fediverse doesn't really protect your anonymity in general while also being run by individuals who can be arrested and their servers seized without having a corporate oligarchy getting upset about it.
And, just as a general rule:
Do, or do not.
Threat displays are for chimps.
As stated, I'm well aware of the risks involved with this kind of statement. Again, as stated, I'm not concerned.
While this statement is a threat to my OpSec, my government is currently incapable of tying my name or identity to a phone number. By the time they start caring about my comment right here, I'll have much bigger issues. (I know that claim sounds ridiculous but it's actually been a regular hurdle in my life. My documents have been fucked up by so many different agencies that it's very difficult to figure out who I am)
Also, threat displays are not just for chimps. The cold war had real, tangible impacts on the world. Protects have real, tangible impacts on the world. Riots get things done too, but so do threats.
