Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

The administration claims the accounts are engaged in doxing and endanger officer safety

Yeah, doxing isn't a crime, and while many times it can be characterized as a "dick move", I don't think that really applies to identifying public servants that shouldn't be masked in the first place, and are actively engaging in oppression and unregulated violence.

Hmm, yes, but don't you see? Mr. Big Man ICE Agent wants to beat you into unconsciousness to show you how tough and scary he is. If you know who he is, you could get revenge for your cracked skull and broken eye when he's feeling tired and unalert one day. And the Enforcer class reserves the right to beat you to death for fun, not the other way around.

How is criticizing ICE doxxing? Also, doxxing is a crime unofficially. You are exposing a person's personal information so that they can be harmed.

What the administration wants to do is violate the 1st amendment further and dox the redditor.

Apparently the comment in question also identified an ICE agent. Which shouldn't count as doxxing. We pay their salary we deserve to know who they are.

EXACTLY. These motherfuckers should all be as easy to find and look up as any officer, or seeing real estate records, etc.

We PAY these motherfuckers salaries. Why they are permitted to run around unidentified and have zero accountability is just plain wild.

If they knew what they were doing was moral and legal, they wouldn't have this supposed "need" to be masked up. They are not masked up at the airport for some reason.

I thought doxxing someone was doubleplusungood, but the administration wants to punish someone and doxx them for naming public workers? There is nothing to "doxx" when you work for the public.

Or is that only for pieces of shit like the libsoftiktok lady? Remember all the conservative tears over that bitch?

We will all be headed for the camps.

Wow they're getting dragged to court for that. Insane overreach those comments are mild.
