Wow, this email address sure loves porn. It has an account everywhere.

Might be great to also sign up for accounts on lots of legitimate sites that love to send out email as well. Harder to blanket-ban those emails. Some that might be great:

  • LinkedIn profile and looking for work
  • Amazon and yes, I would love to hear about new offers and deals
  • Yes, I am looking to buy a new car and please email me new offers from all of your dealerships
  • DNC, RNC, and Green party political announcements, plus email blasts from state representatives
  • MSNBC & Yahoo news

I bet someone could get AI to write a bunch of bogus emails to send that look like legit reports

[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

ACT BLUE!!! donate like $0.01 and they'll happily spam that email more than a bot could and share it with every dem candidate in existence.

Elon Musk is a DEI hire right?

He's certainly neither qualified nor elected, so I can only assume he's there to boost the syphilitic nazi quota.

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 47 points 2 days ago

Secret police kind of crap. This is scary!

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 39 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Become a Government informer. Betray your family and friends. Fabulous prizes to be won.

Whatever you do, don't email anything at all to DEIAtruth@opm.gov. Especially do not make them aware of "parties with lemons" or "girl in a tub" or "Swedish (SE) goat".

[–] MeatsOfRage@lemmy.world 161 points 3 days ago (12 children)

This will all get filtered out pretty quickly. The best way to hit this is with very authentic looking email. Wasting their time is the best recourse.

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 111 points 3 days ago (4 children)

I know from personal experience that signing up an email address at huge numbers of random online retailers becomes very annoying very quickly.

Definitely don't do that with DEIAtruth@opm.gov.

[–] Railing5132@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They're most likely only looking for email from other dot-gov addresses.

Sounds like a great use for LLMs.

[–] lordnikon@lemmy.world 49 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I think you just found a great use for a LLM chat bot. That and a temp email service.

Yeah and?

Of course they're doing this. Expect a WHOLE lot more of this. 50 bucks say that next month everyone will be getting an email urging them to rat out ~~Anne Frank's~~ immigrant hiding places, and failure to do so might earn you a ticket to the same ~~death camp~~ immigrant vacation camp

Its like Trump's government is watching all sorts of WWII documentaries and intensely writing down all the ideas they're getting from it

[–] __nobodynowhere@lemm.ee 13 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Cleanse the government of non-whites and political enemies

Deport illegals

Imprison illegals who cannot be deported

Imprison transexuals, homosexuals and political enemies

Imprison any non-whites

Final solution

Have you ever wondered how you would act if you were the neighbors of the family harboring Anne Frank and her family? A lot of people are about to find out for real.

Start reporting DEI hires like Amy Coney Barrett and Marco Rubio? Did they give Vivek a position or did they just lead him on? The letter my brother received asking him to rat out his coworkers was sent by a woman, probably a DEI hire.

[–] ours@lemmy.world 40 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Will "suspected of being a DEI" be the new McCarthy witch hunt?

[–] The_Shwa@midwest.social 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yes, these, the immigrant hotlines, and the anti lgbtq+ messaging are the new witch hunts. The same message as before but a little bit louder and a whole lot worse.

So i know this guy who only got hired because of the color of his skin. His name is Donald Trump, he's the token orange guy. No idea how to do his job.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 47 points 2 days ago

Ah yes the Ministry of Truth over here

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 44 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Rat out your non-conformist comrade to The Party’s Commissariat.

[–] RamenJunkie@lemmy.world 30 points 2 days ago (4 children)

The shitty part is, what does that even mean?

"Hey, they hired a black dude, better report it to the DEI Snitch list."

Its just a weird open invitation for assholery.

Cool Americans should report their obnoxious Republican coworkers.

Oooo there’s another email Amanda.scales@opm.gov

[–] CityPop@lemmy.today 83 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (4 children)

DEIAtruth@opm.gov is asking for non-stop spam. DDOS the fuck out of the US government.

[–] MeatsOfRage@lemmy.world 41 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Spam is easy to filter out. It's important to make it look as authentic as possible

The way this is worded...

I dont think this is to go after minorities. It will have that effect, at least for minorities who received a promotion or position change within the last 4 months, but that isn't the goal here.

This is to lay the groundwork to fire a very specific person. Somebody the president likely doesn't have the ability to unilaterally fire himself, but somebody he can throw under the bus and perhaps have a show trial thrown their way, which would begin the process to remove that person.

Question: who has the ability to block necessary parts of the administration's coming goals, can't directly be fired by the president, and has oversight over the employment contracts of federal employees?
