    If these people are carrying out actual justice, why would they need to hide their identity?

    What reason is there for having all this secrecy?

      Remember what happened to the members of the SS after Hitler fell?

      That’s why.

      They know that what they’re doing is illegal and that it’s going to come back to bite them in the ass sooner or later.

        Aha loads of SS got away. There was like a quarter million members and the Allies didn’t give a shit about them because they were focused on the Soviets. A couple at the top got pinched but the vast majority who lived through the war didn’t get harsh punishment.

        Well, and doxxing now. It’s not just a later thing. Most of them can’t plan 5 seconds into the future.
