What weвЂ™re losing, I fear, is the idea that we can take on a role as public citizens that is separate from our role as private human beings that we can place limits on what the state can do to us, and what we can do to each other. Legitimize outing gays to combat homophobia and you legitimize other people outing gays in order to shame and humiliate.вЂќ As he says, вЂњI have long felt that way even about вЂoutingвЂ™ public figures who have bad records on gay rights. Sullivan, like me, is opposed to this kind of stuff, and is and was also opposed to outing closeted gays. ThatвЂ™sВ what IвЂ™m against.вЂќДЄll of this is to make the point that the personal is not political, a phrase that never made a lot of sense to me. That I have to take a DCF investigator to her playdate to go underneath her clothing and check for burn marks. That theyвЂ™re making false DCF claims against me to my daughter. She later testifiedВ that she was ok with demonstrators outside her home, but that вЂњI object to them following my car around, I reject them saying they are coming for me and I need to beg for mercy вЂ¦ that they are going behind my home and brandishing their weapons to my neighbors.

ItвЂ™s fine and good to protest it is not fine and good to force these people and their familiesВ to live under personal siege.ДЄnti-mask demonstrators, for example, hounded one Brevard School Board member and mother, Jennifer Jenkins, at her Florida home, at one point coming to her doorstep and coughing in her face. There are also attacks on school board members around the country, who favor teaching the concepts of critical race theory to kids, or are implementing Covid mask policies. Over the new year, Nancy PelosiвЂ™s private homeВ was vandalized, graffiti written on her garage door, and a bloody pigвЂ™s headВ was thrown into the mix for good measure. LA Mayor GarcettiвЂ™s residence was targeted by anti-lockdown activists LA CountyвЂ™s public health director was also targeted at home some folks brought menacing tiki-torchesВ to the Boise mayorвЂ™s home in Duluth, Trump supporters organized 20 trucks to circle the mayorвЂ™s home. Yelling at people is insufficient these days! No, you have to follow them into the bathroom and yell at them in their stalls when theyвЂ™re trying to micturate, as happened to Kyrsten Sinema.ДЄlthough not as persistent or as widespread as the far leftвЂ™s invasion of the privacy of public figures, the far right is not innocent either.

IвЂ™ll adduce one more: the mayor of Portland, Oregon had to move because protestors went after his condo, even breaking windows of other peopleвЂ™s offices and throwing burning material in them. That mess of paint requires serious cleaning up! Sullivan cites a bunch of examples of similar attacks by the Left, but you can read for yourself. As you see, it says вЂњdefund the OPD вЂќ, вЂњcancel rent!вЂќ ( that would work well) and so on. The title itself shows one example of Leftist damage to the home of OaklandвЂ™s mayor.

And it inspires other people to go off on their enemies in public.Д¬lick on the screenshot to read, and remember to subscribe if you read often: (Most of the hectoring was done by the Left, but as Sullivan notes in this weekвЂ™s column, the Right is not immune.)Д«oth sides need to lay off disturbing peopleвЂ™s regular lives, for it has no salubrious result it allows some people to blow of steam while hardening the divisions in America. People should be able to dine in restaurants in public with their families and be left in peace, whether they be Trumpites or Bernie bros. Although some readers thought this was fine, I didnвЂ™t.

You might remember that this started in the days running up to the Trump election, when people would accost Republican politicians in restaurants, scream at them, or, sometimes, the restaurant owner would ask them to leave. The first is Andrew SullivanвЂ™s latest newsletter on The Weekly Dish (click on screenshot below), in particular his main piece on a new phenomenon: people confronting politicians or those whom thy oppose in private venues, and harassing them or vandalizing their property. There are two items today that I commend to your attention.
