Internet turns on white supremacists and neo-Nazis with doxing, phishing
Aside from the obvious <i>everything</i> that&#x27;s troubling about the rise of white supremacist organizations, another question has been bothering me.<p>Where&#x27;s the line on what terrible things are morally just to do to terrible people? And what must those terrible people do to morally justify the actions taken against them?<p><i>&quot;I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it&quot;</i>, etc. free speech is one facet. But I&#x27;m focusing on actions rather than speech here.<p>Just because someone is a racist, sexist, * ist piece of shit doesn&#x27;t give someone else the right to shoot them in cold blood... does it? And if not, then how far back does that walk before our response is back at &quot;reasonable American citizens striving to live in a harmonious culture that allows for diversity&quot;?<p>I feel like my spidey sense is going off when I listen to interviews and get the sense that the person speaking would tell blatant lies without missing a beat to win the argument, because they believe their cause is that just. And I&#x27;ve been getting that prickling a lot when I hear both sides speak about their positions. Which terrifies the hell out of me.<p>Any thoughts &#x2F; personal moral positions or frameworks welcome. I&#x27;m honestly looking for a way to find a shred of solid footing here that makes me feel more morally comfortable than &quot;white supremacy is bad, therefore <i>anything</i> done against white supremacists is good.&quot;
