Someone on Reddit has been saying someone has been able to report new members without proof and remove their threads by claiming to be the people they’ve reported. Out of curiosity, I tested this out. Turns out it checks out. For some reason, admins have allowed it to be possible. I found out my threads have been removed this way, so beware if you’re banned from somewhere or your threads are removed. This is the same person who thinks she can compete with Fedilore on Tumblr after being banned from Fedilore’s instance for signing up for KiwiFarms in order to prevent her friends from being backbitten on there before going on YouTube to complain about it.

Nothing in the modlogs says that Leni was banned for being autistic, the sole exception being Leni banning themselves on their ShiverMeTimbers alt, where they used autism in the reason box as an attempt to discredit the existing modlogs.

Did either of them sign up for KiwiFarms for protective or sadistic purposes?

Users have to agree to a security question that includes slurs against marginalised demographics before they can sign up on KiwiFarms. The site makes no effort to hide what it’s goal is. Leni referred to people on there as “lolcows”. They also said that someone dislikes the site because they’re probably from two demographics who see themselves at odds with it, which was very obviously referring to both autistic and transgender people, since those are the people the site targets the most.

You keep talking about autism, but all I see is a URL linking to an article. It looks like the person who banned her is using it as a cue. The modlogs have been wrong before, with or without Leni or the people who everyone claims are her alts.

Alright, first off, how would you know this if you are banned from KiwiFarms on account of being English? You strike me as a liar now. Considering you’re the one here who actually acts like they would be on KiwiFarms, including with downvoting people using alts, I am beginning to have suspicions about you.

Second, I opened up the page for it out of curiosity. At least on my device, what you describe isn’t there.

Third, “lolcow” isn’t always a slur. It comes from “lol” and “cow”, and combined, it makes a word that means “someone you can depend on to be humorous”. The “cow” part refers to “milking” as a metaphor. The word “lolcow” is used as a part of the rules of Anonymous.

You have claimed before you are a part of Anonymous while not being on KiwiFarms but just now proved the reverse is true.

I’ve never been a KiwiFarms user. I know what I know about the site from reading up on it, after the suicide of Near/Byuu, whose death was directly caused through harassment from KiwiFarms. The fact you jumped straight to me being a liar rather than considering this is making me think you didn’t create this thread to have a honest discussion with others.

You have claimed before you are a part of Anonymous

I’ve never claimed this either.

Please don’t put words in my mouth.

The modlogs have been wrong before

One or two mods, sure, I could believe it. But we aren’t talking about just one or two mods, we’re talking dozens of different mod and admins banning Leni, all on different instances. As an example, the modlogs aren’t wrong about Leni’s Nazi apologia since they commented 50+ times in this thread, defending both the AfD and Elon’s Nazi salutes.

By banned, I meant that you cannot access the site due to claiming to live in the UK. Criticize the website if you want, I am just stating my observations. They contradict you.

There are no contradictions. People can know about how KiwiFarms operates without being a user on it.

That doesn’t mean what people say cannot contradict with what people can see with their own eyes.

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

Keep in mind as a side note that the R word is not a slur in most countries, and that many of the slurs some people do say on there are reclaimed.

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.

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