The event was a hacker conference full of digitalactivists, ‘cyber partisans’, and ‘digital freedom’ types from mostly Europe. These people love doing ‘hacktivism’ that just happens to overlap with the interests of Nato cyber warfare strategy 🤔
Before it ended I spoke briefly to the spokesperson for the Belarussian Cyber Partisans about the way her organisation strives to do nation building in post Lukashenko Belarus. She said her vision for a future for her country is an agreement with Belarus, Poland, Ukraine, and Turkey in an alliance serving as a buffer zone to Europe, getting funding from the EU and building tech incubators to get US military investment. Of course I said, ‘so fortress Europe can be even more insulated with a layer of buffer from a nationalistic slavic alliance?’ to which she excitedly said ‘YES!’ She finished by saying that they would need to foster a sense of national identity for people to coalesce around. I had to ask her how much the USA is involved in all this and she said ‘they don’t care enough to help’ lol.
She also said she wants Belarus to take back Vilnius as a ‘kind of joke’.
I think she was honest with me as well. Just crazy how the ‘hacker scene’ is so well called to heel for the US empire.

“Whitehats” do be being “white” for sure
Has the concept of a “redhat hacker” been coined yet? No relation to the corporate linux distro
I heard about redcaps at most

A joke that would not fly well with the Polish nazis.
Lmao imagine to know this little of their desired future “allies”. Also this would be probably good moment to talk about Hrodna.
