Admins advocating attacking others isn't new. Some may remember New York brad advocating someone out me to my employer.

Yes, true, but that did not happen here. There was no advocacy of attack, and not even an attack except in a overactive imagination of one of the named users.

The GenderDesk take on this appears to be that "spank" was a sexual reference. It was an odd usage, but was certainly not an attack on this user, and appears to have been just a clumsy way to say "please fix the problem."

However, claiming a "personal attack" can be a personal attack. I.e., a failure to assume good faith behind what appears to have been simply a weird usage, and the request in question had nothing like sanction connected with it. I.e. seems to have no intention to punish, which is what "spank" means in ordinary language.

GenderDesk appears to be not paying attention.
