    While I agree with the sentiment, the video showing them running lol.py did not convince me whatsoever of actual hacking.

            Glad to hear it was legit, fuck dem white power cunts.

            When I saw the lol.py script video it seemed like something I’d see on a bad Mr Robot knockoff.

      You can literally visit the websites, and the front page is up, every other page is a 404

      It’s really real.
