Ah. They’re threatening to boycott CNN’s advertisers, ala the Bill O’Reilly gambit. Eye for an eye, and all that.

But… aren’t they already doing that, as they don’t see those ads, they see ads on Fox or whatever propaganda channel they watch?

Well, I think it was easier for non-Fox viewers to pressure advertisers for Bill O’Reilly’s show because he was a sexual harasser.
To pressure CNN advertisers into dumping CNN, they’ll be trying to claim that CNN was trying to blackmail the the kid who made the gif and threatening to dox him.
I think it might be a steeper hill to climb.
Also, the kid who made it was also exposed to having also written some extremely racists shit over the years. On the other hand, there’s a seemingly large contingent of redditors who think it’s wrong, regardless of their political affiliation.

Nothing new there. A large proportion of Reddit seems to think that doxxing a Nazi/pedophile/whatever is a worse crime than being a Nazi/pedophile/whatever.
Remember Violentacrez?

The “kid” is apparently a middle-aged man.

Oops. Sorry. I’m not sure where I got that he was a younger person. That might have been an assumption on my part. My mistake.

It’s a bit of misinformation being thrown around on purpose by the fascists.

Plenty of mainstream media fell for it, too.

I would argue that even if he were 15, it doesn’t change much. How is being a 15 year old prolific racist any better than being a 35 year old one?
The argument seems to be that a 15 year old would “grow out of it” at some point, but that’s more than a little laughable.

a match made in heaven. You’d think Poland of all places would be on the lookout for creeping Facism. Although, maybe their tack is that now they need to be the invincible one. In Facist Poland, Poland invade you!

FIRST LOOK: Ha ha, funny joke. Where is this from?
SECOND LOOK: Wait no that’s his real Twitter account. WTF?
THIRD LOOK: That is not Trump’s vocabulary. That was written by somebody else.
