So I’ve just been sitting here thinking “go loud” meant, like, “fuck shit up,” right? But apparently it’s an espionage term? It means “acting in a way that is likely or guaranteed to burn your cover,” basically. Like, this is the moment we’ve been waiting for, go loud and get out. Or alternatively, shit is about to hit the fan, and you have no choice but to burn your cover to avoid the worst outcome.
Did everyone else already know this? Was it just me??
(Note: I haven’t been able to find a dictionary definition or anything, just a bunch of examples of people using the phrase + one forum post talking about it. If you find a source, please let me know!)
