Damn there's alot of pro kiwifarms nutjobs here. It's a shame because I really like the kinds of discussions on HN.

The entire discussion here will devolve into why it's okay to use censorship against my enemy because they are evil and I am virtuous.

Interesting point, though you aren't doing yourself any favours with your last sentence.

I think that tweet from Keffals was incredibly irresponsible and she was right in deleting it.

I think trying to get Cloudflare to stop supporting Kiwifarms is good.

You don't have to either deem a person purely good or purely bad, you can agree with some things they do and disagree with other things. It's not that hard.

To add, protests like these (and thus posts sharing the planned protest) seem like they unintentionally end up 'feeding the trolls' - what are the chances KF sees 2x to 10x the amount of new sign-ups on days where they're in the news versus when they're not?

This round of attention is what got me to finally visit KF to see what the actual deal is. Didn't sign up of course.

General impression is "yuck, won't go there again". I didn't see any dox but I did see reminders for readers to not pull KF into whatever mess they make in RL.
