His own parents had no contact orders against him after he made numerous threats on their lives. He was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon. He posted radicalized ideas and conspiracy theories on his X account.
Trumpism is both a disease and a mental disorder, and ignoring your deranged kid because he's too difficult to handle and who obviously has some F***ed up ideas about the world is pretty messed up on their behalf.
Okay, so?
Does that mean they shouldn't have protective orders out? What should they be doing, forcefully trying to insert themselves into a situation where they are in danger and the kid has shown multiple times he isn't interested / is actually threatening?
This to me makes it even more fucked up that their faces are being shown like this online.
You aren't very smart. This really the hill you wanna die n? Defending to hide free and open information ?
How is OP "trying to hide" anything? Saying we shouldn't aggregate and publish PII about the parents of a terrorist who have sought legal protection from that person isn't "trying to hide" anything, it's pleading for others to prevent harassment. There's zero evidence that the parents have anything to do with this and some evidence of the opposite, yet the OP is trying to create a link because they share political opinions with the current administration.
I get it, I strongly dislike Trump and have since I saw him in the primaries back in the 2010s, and I would like nothing more than for every bad thing to be legitimately caused by him and his ideas. But that's not the case, and that doesn't mean every crazy person with a gun was somehow corrupted by parents who likely voted for Trump.
It's much more likely that the parents did their best to teach the kid respect for first responders (conservatives tend to have a hard-on for police and firefighters), guns, etc, and the kid stumbled onto a manipulative online community at just the wrong time in his life (say, a messy divorce) and that corrupted him. Or maybe it's a classic case of schizophrenia. Idk, but I'm pretty sure his parents' political beliefs are unrelated. This could've happened to a family with progressive views who also happen to like guns, I knew plenty of those growing up.
I think most peoples attitudes towards trumpies being 'doxxed' is circumstance. For instance I can make the case that trump voters doxxed every single muslim in the US of A by saying he'd ban them, or the central park 5--even after they were proven innocent--or people of Mexican descent for being rapists. And then voting for the hate filled sack. So its ok to dox the masses but not individuals? How many mass shootings have happened because of that? How many untold number of those minorities were turned town jobs or shunned by society because Trump came down that elevator and said they were 'bad hombres'?
What goes around comes around is what I think the saying is? Maybe that's why no one shedding any tears for these folks? Just my two cents. But I don't think anyone should feel this way, its all driven by politics.
That's not doxxing though. Doxxing means deanonymizing an individual by publicly revealing personally identifiable information about them. Saying, "you should hate this group because X, Y, and Z" isn't doxxing unless you also provide PII about the individuals in that group, it's "just" hate speech.
Agreed. Hating someone because of group affiliation is always bad, whether that's a racial or political group.
Do you really want to live in a society where it's acceptable to hate someone based purely on who they voted for? I sure don't. I've met good and bad people across the political spectrum, so judging people based on party affiliation is a terrible way to go about things.
I'm absolutely on board with protesting Trump and his policies, I'm not on board with jumping on people because they voted for the guy.
You do realize that "doxxing" uses "free and open" information too, right?
