Murdoch’s New York Post doxxes child of slain mother

On 7 January, an agent of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) shot and killed Renee Nicole Good in broad daylight. Now, an outlet owned by Rupert Murdoch has exposed where Good’s orphaned child goes to school:

Doxxed by Murdoch

To ‘doxx’ a person is to expose their personal details to a wider audience. In some instances, there are good reasons to expose where a person lives. There is never a good reason to expose the whereabouts of a child whose mother was just brutally killed:

Given the intense right-wing response in support of the ICE agent, it’s hard to see this as anything other than a hostile act on the part of New York Post. The American right has viciously attacked the late Good since her killing, and has claimed that she ‘tried to run over’ the agent despite analysis showing she was clearly turning away from him at the time that he shot her.

It’s not just the response to this issue that’s the problem. As we know from other events, these freaks will turn up in real life to harass the people that they’re propagandised into hating.

Most recently, following a widely discredited YouTube documentary, these people began barging their way into daycare centres — i.e. places where children are. Can you imagine how you would react if these people tried to barge their way into your facility?

Now, there is every reason to think that we could see a similar scenario at the school that the late Good’s child attends.

Of course this is how a Murdoch rag would behave.
