Geez guys, relax, it was just a bit of fun, stop being so serious, but also let's fire thousands of government employees and cripple services millions of people rely on

If you look at how Elon was recruiting for DOGE, if it wasn't a requirement they were definately selected for.

If I didn't hear that this is their "official" name (DOGE) I would assume that this xitter post is a scam.

19-year-old Edward Coristine, created multiple disturbing web URLs, including kkk-is-cool.club, raping-women.club and child-porn.store [...] these URLs redirected users to a photo sharing website, tesla.sexy

Seems like a nice guy

... Created URLs ...

Registered domain names - paid for them - and redirected those to a site of his for anonymous image posting. What could go wrong?
