Anonymity also prevents being canceled for expressing a controversial opinion. It's true that it comes with the baggage of not knowing who's saying it, but it's an incredibly useful thing. As long as readers are aware of the pitfalls, I think it's a good thing to have. There's also no reason to expect discourse to be fully one way or the other; we can have forums that are degrees of each.
Doxxing or threatening to dox random employees for merely working at the company is a dumb strategy. It's one thing to hold leftists to their own standards but targeting people you know nothing about politically is a good way to make yourself (and any communities you're in) hated by the average person. People might be capitulating to leftists right now, but when there's a reckoning all you'll have accomplished is getting yourself caught up in it.
