Totally expect to see a sea of “Nazi Sympathizer” comments, but look. I don’t think we should be Doxxing anyone so that we don’t invite folks to Doxx us.
I don’t think this is radical, but apparently this opinion is somehow tantamount to being an actual Nazi in that thread.
I don’t wish to remain in a community that says that Doxxing is bad unless we disagree with the victim - and I think that the post’s continued existence communicates this. Sure, it’s a federated post and not from our community, but honestly, I think it should be removed from Beehaw. I’ve already removed it from my tucson.social instance since I’m in no mood to deal with retaliatory doxxing.

To be clear, the Moderators have been removing the worst offending comments since the article itself doesn’t actually Dox anyone, but navigating to the source thread on lemmy.ml provides easy access to ALL the doxxed information. As such, I think the whole post should be removed and/or locked.
Update: Post has been removed - I have no further issues. As an aside - good lord Beehaw - I get it I’m a Nazi apparently. I’ll get out of your hair and delete my account later this evening. Sheesh.
There was another thread where people were calling for McCarthyist treatment of the legislators that refuse to vote for more war money to Ukraine.
There’s been a ton of doxxing in the US over valid criticism of Israel, including advertising trucks with students’ names, photos, and info driven around college campuses.
It may be that people just need to simmer down a little. I still remember when Spike Lee tweeted the name and address of the wrong George Zimmerman and forced an innocent old couple into hiding.
It seems that more and more people feel justified in their doxing. And that’s what scares me. More more people feeling justified to perform a form of violence.
Because that’s what doxing is, a form of non-physical violence.
