Real names are not an indicator of trustworthiness or maturity, especially online, where making your real-life personal data too publicly available is just asking for trouble from turds like these (among many other bad actors that make up entirely too much of the modern Internet).

I do totally agree with you about the harassment and gaslighting though. Humanity as a whole has tolerated this sort of behavior far longer than it should have. Something's gotta be done about it. Mebbe we need to start prosecuting public death threats as a crime again?
