As long as they don't have personal information about you, it's not that threatening. But otherwise it can be very harassing, and the topic shouldn't be talked down.
I wonder if celebrities have ever reported the navy seal copy pasta to police believing it’s a legitimate threat.
I thought more of local politicians for example being threatened by right winged people with phrases like "we will hunt you" and similar, who then also form mobs in front of the victim's private home.
And also if some random internet weirdo watches your steps for years, trying to dox you, and uses any private info they find to defame you.
