    This. I feel sorry for Christine. She attracted the attention of trolls for appearing “awkward”. She then attracted a group of trolls known as the “Idea Guys” who basically made her mental health spiral even more, affecting her grasp on reality. This went on for years and years.

    KiwiFarms is also the same site that was responsible for the suicide of the beloved BSNES/Higan dev, Byuu/Near.






  • You are trying to speak for what people see when they register. I am looking right at it, it’s not there.

    I trust what I’ve read about the site, including what I’ve read on RationalWiki. https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Kiwi_Farms

    Most “cows” are described as what are known as “exceptional individuals”, coined after a post filter was installed to replace the word “r----s”. On its now-banned Twitter account, Kiwi Farms described its purpose as “gossip and exploitation of the mentally handicapped for amusement purposes”.[17] Furthermore, the sign-up page for the site once came with a disclaimer saying “autistics will be laughed at. T----s will be misgendered. People will try to find where you live.”[18] Due to its offensive content, Kiwi Farms is arguably a hate speech website.

    Keep in mind as a side note that the R word is not a slur in most countries

    Conversion “therapy” isn’t considered bad in most countries either. Defending slurs is not a good look.
