I got off of Nextdoor when I saw a 'neighbor' who took to taking photos of people driving(in his words) like an idiot. The way he would take the photos is to chase them down, pull out his phone while driving and take a photo of the car. Then he would post a meme like photo of the car calling the person some variation of a jackass/moron/etc. When I pointed out the irony of chasing someone down to take their picture, I got a bunch of ad hominem attacks and accusations that I was one of the people he had named and shamed. (I wasnt).
I suggested that maybe he leave traffic enforcement to the professionals, and if he noticed a rash of bad driving to maybe alert the police to step up patrol of the area. He doubled down on the character attacks and while I got a bunch of private messages saying thank you for saying something there was an equal amount of public posts from people thanking him for "keeping them safe".
Sigh...
