    More evidence of the GOP mantra; use threats of violence to get what you want. This is what their voters want for the country. To be able to get what they want, and use violence whenever they don’t to force compliance.

    And what’s worse, if the examples in the article are any indication, is that companies are going along. Those examples will encourage more doxxing because it worked. And especially if Trump ends up winning, it’ll soon be apparently a fireable offense to have the wrong political opinions.

      I saw a decal on a van that said “Just a regular mom raising lions not sheep” and I thought “more like raising bullies not responsible citizens”. It’s where Karens come from; it’s where crazy parents getting teachers fired comes from - this idea that it is totally appropriate to use force, threats, proximity, and volume to get what you want instead of negotiating, accepting the rules, and admitting that you’re wrong and the world doesn’t bend to your rules. And somehow, we’ve given these people their own talking head to justify their behavior and he just might win the presidency. It’s astonishing.
