Harrison Butker is a placekicker for the Kansas City Chiefs. He was apparently chosen to give a commencement speech at a Catholic school in the area near Kansas City (of note, he went to school in Georgia). The speech was politically charged.

Butker ripped President Biden and his hypocritical stance on abortion, took an unveiled shot at Pride Month, unmasked some of the lies born during the Covid crisis, addressed the "tyranny" of diversity, equity and inclusion policies, and lifted women as mothers, wives and homemakers to counter the "diabolical lies" they've been fed by society.

He also discussed men's and women's roles in the household. Notably, he encouraged embracing the role of a homemaker.
This set off a firestorm in the press and online.
Several thousand signatures have been collected in multiple petitions on change.org to have him fired from his team.

Numerous news outlets have published stories on the "controversial" speech, many misrepresenting it.

The NFL has decried the views expressed in the speech.

The current cherry on top is that the Twitter account for the city of Kansas City tweeted out the city that Butker lives in.

Whether that is really a doxx is questionable (at least to me), but the point remains that a city publicly singled out a person for his views to at least distance itself from him. The twxtter account also apparently liked some approving responses before deleting the tweet and apologies-ing for it being 'shared.'
