One of the reasons why Conservatives keep getting beat like red headed step children in the culture war is precisely because very few want to be involved in fighting it. Social media is one of the most important cultural battle fields.

Why not doxx her? Hound her and her family until she kills herself.

Christina is great. She defends DeSantis unapologetically. Liberals hate her.

Thanks. Sounds like an honest mistake then.

I hate hearing about Republican Termites who eat away at the foundation of everything, while wearing a big supportive smile on the outside.

Glad she isn’t one of them.

OK... now how many distortions and outright falsehoods can you count in this Newsweek writeup?

I think as a part of this attack on LOTT, Lorenz has also posted a picture of her real estate license. This is just an invitation to go after her employment.

Taylor Lorenz is one evil woman. You can see several interesting comments on this issue if you go to Twitchy.com.

And, you notice the left frames the story as conservatives “pouncing” or “seizing” on the issue.

I love that LibsofTikTok is run by a Gen Z Orthodox Jewish female. Absolute nightmare for the left, and shows how electoral politics were completely upended by the amazing Donald J. Trump.

Doesn’t bother me in the slightest. That’s her game. And one day she will do it to the wrong person. And I will take 3 or 4 minutes to read the news story of what a person with nothing left to lose did to her in revenge and read about what a great reporter she was.

Then I will shrug and move on to the next story.

No, it doesn’t attack anybody. It merely quotes liberals who post on Tik-Tok.

Open challenge to any Freepers to find and publish Ms. Carbonaro’s home address, email, phone number, family members, etc.

I’m sure she’d be 100% in favor of it.

You need to re-read the article. Pushaw wasn’t sharing anything that disclosed the identity of the site’s creator. She was sharing Lorenz’s efforts to expose that identity. She was attacking Lorenz.

I thought this woman’s picture at the top was included by the DeSantis press secretary, which the Washington Post used to find out who she was and publish it...but the picture is of the WaPo skeeve reporter. I think the picture posted above of the woman in the odd sweater threw me off.

The woman being “doxxed”, if I understood it correctly, was ridiculing Leftists by collecting and posting their stupid Leftist tik-tok content (so she is a conservative) and because she was “outed” she has been getting hammered by Leftists.

I was talking about the conservative woman, not the Washington Post columnist Lorenz, who I thought Pushaw accidentally disclosed information about her to Lorenz, who then officially “doxxed” her in the Washington Post. In re-reading, it appears the slimy woman at the WaPo was doing the “Oh, we just want information about a tik-tok user you have praised...”

“Conservatives Pounce!”

Hahahahahaha, once you see it, you can’t un-see it, as Bongino points out...:)

Yeah. Basically, Pashaw has praised the website, Lorenz (slimy leftist) contacted Pashaw for a comment and Pashaw posted what Lorenz requested. Pashaw was definitely being one of the good guys here.

This was good to hear. Sorry for the gal who got outed, but too, that goes with the territory.

If she is getting PSTD from them, perhaps she shouldn’t have been doing them.

We used to have a Freeper on here, Doctor Raoul, who was absolutely fearless. He would go head to head with the Leftists at the demonstrations down in Washington DC, no qualms at all. How I admired him.

But that isn’t for everyone.

You may already realize this, but Christina did not do anything wrong even by mistake. What she shared was a Washington comPost email, etc. She didn’t expose a conservative.
