Call the cops, file restraining orders, and get a good therapist.

Assholes and trolls are still going to exist regardless of what any platform does.

You can’t have what you want by trying to pressure cloudflare, it won’t make a positive difference. Do something real instead of advocating for something toothless and symbolic.

How exactly do you file a restraining order against an unknown group of unnamed people? It seems like a very privileged victim-blaming POV.

The FBI, and increasingly police departments, have fairly large cyber forensics capabilities. If someone is doing something illegal, report it.

Do you actually think there is any chance they would investigate?

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Are you implying that the police will decline to investigate death threats and the like for political reasons?

I am implying that police don't care about internet death threats. As long as they're not against the president or something.

Attack other users like you did in those first two sentences will get you banned here, regardless of how right you are or feel you are. No more of this, please.
