Far-leftists don't like when their own material is viewed by the "right-wing"

Libs of TikTok is a twitter account that primarily focuses on reposting the craziest TikTok (and other video sharing platform) videos made by far-leftist activists and lunatics. Unsurprisingly, the far left does not like this and considers the owner of the account a "far-right extremist", a terrorist and so on and so forth, and doing the best they can to shut her down.

The funny thing is that Libs of TikTok does nothing more than repost completely publicly available videos, published and made available to everybody by the authors of the videos themselves. She doesn't for example infiltrate some closed private online groups and surreptitiously leak material that's meant to be private. She doesn't hack into people's computers and steal their private videos. She doesn't disseminate hidden camera footage published without permission. The only thing she does is to repost videos that have been published and made completely public for the entire world, by the authors of the videos themselves.

And the far leftists do not like this. They have no problem in those videos being public, but they have a big problem with "far-right extremists" being made aware of the existence of these videos. Videos that are completely open to the entire world to see, by their authors.

Recently Matt Walsh and his team made some investigative journalism on a hospital in Boston that administers puberty blockers and hormones to minors, and does breast removal and castration surgeries to them. His reporting on this has caused an uproar, even up to the point that state senators are looking into investigating the hospital and are seriously proposing making such drugs and surgeries illegal in the state. Naturally the far left is going completely bonkers about it.

Once again, the funny thing is that Matt Walsh and his team didn't leak material from the hospital that was supposed to be private, he didn't hack into their computers, he didn't infiltrate their meetings and film them surreptitiously with hidden cameras (รก la Project Veritas), he didn't rummage through their trash to try to find accidentally thrown out documents that weren't supposed to be public...

The only thing he and his team did was to collect completely publicly available material, published by the hospital itself, officially made available to everybody, kept in their official websites and Facebook accounts, open to anybody to see. (And not as in accidentally open eg. because of a misconfigured server. Just their official public websites and social media accounts.)

In other words, the only thing he did was to draw attention to the publicly available material, published by the hospital itself.

And because of that, the far left considers him a monster and a terrorist. For merely pointing to completely publicly available material, published by the hospital.

And the funny thing is that in neither of the two cases above can the far left give clear reasons why what they are doing is somehow wrong, legally, morally or ethically. They are just furious at them for merely making people look at what they are publicly doing.
