The Atlantic magazine has come up with a creative but laughable way to defend the extreme doxxing by Washington Post writer Taylor Lorenz, who once was a staff writer at their periodical. Their tactic is to broaden the definition of "doxxing" to make it fluid enough to serve the purposes of liberals. Therefore, according to the Atlantic's semantics game, what the Libs of Tik Tok did by presenting unedited videos uploaded by liberals to the very public TikTok platform was somehow "doxxing;" but when Lorenz exposed the name and other personal information of the creator of Libs of TikTok that wasn't really doxxing at all.
If you are scratching your heads at the absurdity of that stance, at least Atlantic admits it in the title of their article by Kaitlyn Tiffany on Friday, "Doxxing Means Whatever You Want It To." The subtitle submerges even deeper into the realm of the surreal with "The word once defined a category of behaviors. Now it expresses an emotion."

“Pandemic” was officially changed by the WHO, too.
“Safe and effective” apparently were as well.
*As, it seems, was “rare”.
Come knock on my door digging for info and my fists will make your face fluid.
yep
Did republishing the libs own videos give bad people any more information than they had about the lib than did th lib’s video when it was first publishing?
Did releasing the personal information about the Libs of tiktok give bad people any more information than they had by watching her channel?
Most everything in the woke progressive lexicon can be traced back to two mid 20th century French philosophers, Jacques Derrida and Michel Foucault. They developed the concept of post modern literary deconstruction. Where truth is an agreed upon narrative. The funny thing about these two is they were supported clandestinely by the CIA as an alternative view to Soviet Marxism that could attract European academics and weaken the Soviet’s hold on that segment of European society.
Fluidity is the lifeblood of illusory positions.

What amazed me was hearing the word "gay" used in that new age way in 1938 in "Bringing Up Baby." Come to think of it, maybe that is what coined the term.
It’s fluid depending on whether it’s a conservative or liberal doing the Doxxing
👍
They did this to the term “vaccine”.
Which it is NOT.
Pure newspeak, although the action is far from pure.
Yes, Demonicrats believe Orwell’s 1984 was an instruction book.
According to Demonicrats’ Newspeak, sharing an internal video is doxxing.
Question: why isn’t the word doxing?
Internal was supposed to be internet.
Perhaps the editors of The Atlantic and Kaitlyn Tiffany need to have their personal info splashed all over the internet as I feel that would not be doxxing. We all get to determine our own truth and the word is fluid.
