when a neighbor cyber-bullied Eric's kid

This week on SoapBox Lex, Eric and Paul throw out the usual format and dive headfirst into a real-life situation that hit a little too close to home. What started as a loving father posting a proud Facebook post quickly spiraled into a heated online exchange when a neighbor took an unprompted—and deeply rude—shot at Eric’s teenage daughter.As the post gained attention, the situation escalated. What seemed like a questionable opinion at first began to feel more politically charged, and the tone only got more aggressive as friends, family, and even strangers stepped in to defend her. Instead of backing down, the neighbor doubled down—raising bigger questions about online behavior and how quickly things can spiral in today’s digital world.Eric and Paul unpack the situation: the emotional impact of seeing your child targeted, the temptation to engage (or not), and the blurry line between free speech and basic human decency. They also explore how politics can seep into places it doesn’t belong—and what happens when people stop seeing each other as neighbors and start seeing each other as enemies.🎧 Tune in and join the conversation at https://soapboxlex.com
