This is just this administration's way of getting revenge for the public shaming of various officials that have been harassed in restaurants.

Of course, what they fail to realize is that the previous events were people independently deciding to voice their opinion to government officials. This is state-sponsored harassment of the press.

It won't change anything, but it just re-enforces the callousness of Trump and his administration.

Rand Paul is working for Russia. I think his dad is too. My theory is that the first test of the Russian propaganda machine was Ron Paul's first presidential run.

I agree with your assessment of the Pauls, and I really find your theory of Ron Paul being the 'beta test' for the Russian propaganda/influence/cyberwarfare machine to be very interesting and quite plausible. I've thought both the Paul's have been suspicious for a long time, and I can see similarities with how Ron Paul was projected and received and how the 2016 election went for Trump, and to a lesser extent Jill Stein and Bernie.

No, you're just playing stupid.

I have not, nor has anyone else, suggested such, and you would have to do some amazing mental conrortions to try and arrive at that conclusion.

Sanders isnt doing shit
She literally asked maga followers to do it for her.

Now answer the very straight forward question.

Are MAGA crazed nutjobs who follow on Twitter active government officials on a sanctioned investigation?

Yeah, that's what I thought.



We both know that's not what doxxing is. Names, pictures, addresses, that's doxxing. But you know all about that.

You really want to go down this road?

Id think you'd rather just stick to the topic at hand.

Are you threatening me now too?!

So you're suggesting that Sanders is doxxing by proxy, leet haxxor.

Seriously tho, take a deep breath, what's happening isn't "doxxing", I honestly don't know if it's even harassment, given the public nature of the phone number and the notoriously short attention span of MAGA idiots who'll undoubtedly be on to the next manufactured controversy by tomorrow. It's clear Sanders is attempting to punish the NYT for publishing the Op-Ed... but this isn't exactly much of a punishment to be honest.

What's more concerning is the continued anti-media rhetoric.

So, I'm not sure you can dox an organization, it usually means a private individual. And as pointed out NYT invited comment, they are set up to handle this, that's not really the issue. Defining doxing (I refuse to spell it with two Xs, that's super dumb) is besides the point here I think. Because the official WH statement was to harass the NYT – to the MAGACHUDS obviously. It's disturbing behaviour, whether or not it fits the definition of that one new word.

Anyways SHS has fucked herself and her family over. comprehensively with this, so I hope they enjoy that.

"Grandpa. Tell me about the days when shit wasn't TOTALLY fucked up.."
Well sonny when I was growing up we identified who we were by the products we consumed.

For example I was a Nintendo and Star Wars kid (in other works an intellectual with great taste). And people would agree over common sense shit (ie Russia was bad, transformers were the best, etc).. You also didn't have to worry about getting shot because you left your house.

It was was a magical time!

I'm trying to get you to stop dancing around and bullshitting and actually engage the topic.

But if anyone asks, yeah have no problem telling them and showing them exactly what that sad little board is all about, and let them decide what they want to think.

Personally I think the staff should make a pda about the bore, kiwi farms and others with a sticky thread. The mere awareness would sure as hell instantly solve a LOT of the shit that goes on in here.

You are only playing with 2/3rds of the peices.

What's the last step?

What did she tell them to get by harassing the new York times?


The identity of an unknown person.


That's who's getting doxxed, not the new York Times, but the unsung shitbag who wrote the letter and GAVE IT to the new York Times.

They KNOW his identity, Trump WANTS it, and Sanders just sicced a whole bunch of frothing nationalized media hating followers to harass them until they give it up.

we should all spam the white house press secretary number, stage whisper "it was me" and hang up, over and over.

Given how unstable we've seen so many Trump supporters to be, I'd actually be afraid for my life if I worked at the NYT right now.

This is continued anti-media rhetoric.

Nothing you've posted in any way shows the the White House is "doxxing" the leaker.

However, you do seem to have a mega hard-on for doxxing me. I'm unsure what you think you're threatening with the first part of your unhinged post but it certainly isn't going to persuade me that you're in any way correct.

There is nothing private about literally googling your username and connecting it to another website. The poster isn't revealing your real name or real picture or anything. So yeah, that's not doxxing, no matter how many times you're saying it is.

Googling my username? I hadn't even thought of that! To what end? Lord what else have they found!

Apparently being unable to have a discussion with someone. I've enjoyed your posts on political subjects for a while on here, but I'm really unsure what you're doing in this thread. It's confusing. This post included.

4859 was shutting down people who correctly pointed out that, while awful, this isn't Doxxing. Nobody had challenged them so I just decided to point out "This isn't doxxing" unleashing 4859's oddly placed wrath on me. I think it's important in these turbulent days to use language deliberately so that we don't create or spread misinformation. I'm being cheeky about the whole exchange because I believe 4859 is being unnecessarily dramatic.

This certainly will end extremely.
For a second I figured you forgot a word, but then I realized it will be extreme indeed. These ass hats have managed to divide a country more than they screamed a President of Color would. America was more ready than ever for the change Obama brought, and they just tore every ounce of goodwill asunder. Shamefully criminal.

Sanders is a piece of shit, but I also sense that Trump must be pushing everyone to do something to display/prove their loyalty now. He's probably going crazy trying to figure out who it is.

Oh he definitely is. He is going ape shit over it.

Well that would be because thats the game.

This is what they are actually doing.

Mod edit: off-site sleuthing removed

So when people bring up arguing in bad faith, people doing this is usually what they are referring to.

This is targetted harassment against the free press. Pretty clear cut.

Well, its not the first time the press has been harassed by the White House or majority government. But usually its done with more implication and... well for lack of a better word, tact. The sheer bumbling and incompetent actions like this one I find akin to someone trying to solve a murder case after watching 3 episodes of Law & Order.

They sure are putting in a lot of effort to find someone for "fabricated lies".

If something awful comes from this, she can only blame herself. This is in-fucking-sane.

If this is how the WH acts with one op-ed, it should be apocalyptic when the Woodward book comes out.
