    Sure but why on earth should that mean we should condemn it universally? It’s not like they’d stop if we did.

      By popularizing the topic it is normalized. There’s also no need to compromise ethical standards.

      I want Fuentes charged for the hate crimes and terroristic threats he makes. I am NOT defending him. But I don’t want people going into his neighborhood, getting the house wrong and hurting an innocent person, for example. Or maybe he moves and the new owner gets the heat.

        Charged for what? The president has said grab them by the pussy? What crimes do you think he we’ll be charged with? There is no reason of law in America.

          Disagree. I’ve made my opinion on him quite clear.

          My comment history is clearly anti maga anti fuentes.

          I’m not interested in normalizing the tools of fascists and or terrorists.

          Explicit defense is completely inaccurate. My original comment even said I have no defense for Fuentes, who I believe belongs in jail

          Doxxing is wrong because of 2 things:

          Bystanders get hurt when mistakes are made

          Normalizing such things will put net new, innocent folks at risk.

          This is the recent event that has doxxing on my mind, and why I’ve taken the time here

            I agree with you in principle, but it didn’t happen in this case and I feel like at this point, what’s done is done and you might as well laugh.
