I think the reason why is because there is a lot of overlap in terms of opinions and social networks between people who do the first thing (death threats and doxxing) and people who do the second thing (have moralized negative opinions about ships). For example, I recently ran into someone who unironically believed that writing aged-up teenagers having sex was a strong indication that you are sexually attracted to the teenage characters and that aging them up was just a fig leaf to make that attraction seem more "legitimate." As far as I know, this person has never sent a death threat or harassed anyone. But I feel safe calling them an anti anyway because if you truly believe that writing fic of aged up teenagers having sex is an informative signal of being a real! life! pedophile!, and most people view pedophilia as one of the worst and most severe sexual transgressions, I get the feeling that person would feel death threats and doxxing are completely justified, because that is far less severe than letting pedophiles walk around fandom unharassed. There's a whole continuum of behavior that starts off by warning people about pedophiles and collecting lists of fans that post pedophilic content and ends with doxxing and death threats. This isn't a slippery slope argument -- it's an argument about what people view as morally justifiable given the stakes that they believe are at play (which is "real life pedophiles regularly posting and interacting with people in fannish spaces").
