The annals of “ I ’ m not antivaccine, ” part 24: Antivaxers threaten to dox Boston Herald employees over the newspaper ’ s use of imagery much less offensive than what antivaxers use on a daily basis

Last week, the Boston Herald published an editorial about how antivaxers deceived a community of Somali immigrants in Minnesota, referring to the spreading of deadly misinformation as a "hanging offense." Antivaxers took an ill-advised idiom and turned it into a threat of mass lynchings, ignoring their own violent imagery about vaccines and portraying themselves as "pro-vaccine," and used it as justification to threaten to publish the home addresses and phone numbers of newspaper employees. Yes, they are disingenuous and hypocritical as hell.
