Not only doxxed, but attacked as well
No wonder he is worried about his information getting out given his past encouragement of this behavior

This is part of what I find ironic about this whole affair. I was perusing /pol/ yesterday to sort of gauge their reaction, and guess what I found? They had doxxed the author of the article, posted his address, phone number, the phone numbers of his wife and father.
HanAssholeSolo wasn't even doxxed. hypocrites.
Edit: horrendous grammar, clearly needed coffee

I'll say it for the millionth time. This country has free speech, we do not have freedom from our speech. Words have consequences.

HanAssholeSolo is the face of the new Reddit. That's why the admins want the story to be about CNN.

No surprises here.
Spend five minutes looking at any alt-right / the_dingus poster and it becomes clear that they don't take anything seriously other than their memes and their keyboard warrior wars.
Is it really astonishing that someone who's been posting this stuff unopposed would be surprised at a backlash?
The_Dingbats have a history of perpetually upvoting anti-Islam posts, dig a little deeper into the cesspool and you'll come across the anti-Semitic stuff. It's all painted over with a thin layer of memes and "oh we're just triggering people".
Problem is that it's becoming normal to see violent, hateful, bigoted, ignorant and downright *factually wrong* content spread like the gospel over there.
What I find delightfully ironic is the the 'true patriots' over there are taking a bunch of conspiracy theories based largely on stuff gleaned from wikileaks - which is often tainted or seeded with Russian interference - just google "wikileaks Russia connection".
The useful idiots, taking Russian propaganda, painting over it with memes, conspiracy theories and a dash of alt-right racism, spouting tripe in their echo chamber with walls made of ignorance, where all dissent is banned, lies are true 'alternative facts', racism and hatred are 'spicy memes', and being a 'independent free-thinker' requires that you not stray from the narrative you are fed.
The irony is delicious, but it's soured somewhat by the prospect of it continuing for years to come.

I hope this puts enough eyes on Reddit that they finally FPH The_Donald and the crap that goes along with it.

DISCLAIMER: I don't believe in eye for an eye, but the altright sure as shit does. I don't think CNN should've gone after that user's identity but he was no angel either.

Due to the attention this post is receiving, /r/AgainstHateSubreddits being a small, and often *controversial,* community with a small moderation team, and the discussion being heavily about *doxxing,* we have decided to lock the thread while we try to put out flame wars and to help us prevent violations of reddit's TOS.

I'm not defending him, he's obviously a piece of shit, but this still doesn't justify CNN blackmailing him. Idiots on the internet said worst things in the past and nobody did shit about it. If anything, they went down to his level for no good reason.

The point is he's an asshole, but CNN is a big corporation with responsibilities. And holding that over the head of a person to ensure "good behavior" is bullshit.
Creating the gif was fine. It's stupid, but it's fine. The GIF is not hate speech. The way Trump used it it more problematic.
Would it be OK to publish the address of the reporters and pundits you disagree with? That's why I think it's not OK for CNN to threaten to Dox this guy.
I'm as anti-Trump as it comes, but I'm also anti-corporate bully.
