I'm not convinced the WhiteLeaks should be there. In fact I don't even believe WhiteLeaks should have been published.

Don't get me wrong, Nazi ideology is disgusting and these people are scum, but I don't think being an asshole with retarded ideology is enough to lose your fundamental human rights. These people are idiots indeed but they haven't done anything to deserve that (unlike say ICE agents, Silicon Valley billionaires, or other actual fascism enablers).

What fundamental human rights are being lost by outing someone's ideology? I am not making a claim here, just asking for clarification.

If your ideology involves hurting people, to a point, you should be left alone by the government. but by that same principle, others should be left alone too when they show similar levels of hostility or worse.

You shouldn't lose your fundamental human rights, up to a point, that point is when you start believing and spreading a belief that other people should lose their fundamental human rights.

These people are actively working towards genociding groups of people. It’s not just a ”stupid ideology”. It’s a murderous ideology, it’s an ideology that actively denies the humanity and life of people. These people chose to do that, they chose to support and work their society towards a new holocaust.

> Nazi ideology is disgusting

Disgusting is the least of its problems. I'm not saying this in connection to the privacy issue, it's just weird to see something like "death is icky, it smells bad".

> I don't think being an asshole with retarded ideology is enough to lose your fundamental human rights.

I don't know who is being doxed by WhiteLeaks, but again, the bigger problem is that doxing creates threats to personal welfare, health and life.

I'm not sure how doxing can be stopped in the current polarized political environment, both sides use it as a weapon... because it works as such. Maybe we should focus on that problem instead.

I bet a lot of the people who signed up to that site were just white people interested in dating people similar to themselves without being accused of racism. It's funny how there are dating and e-commerce sites made for every race, nationality, and ethnicity but when it comes to whites it is considered pure evil. You can't really shame people out of their preferences, even by calling them names.
