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.
