I genuinely couldn't tell you the difference between Kiwifarms and 4chan. They've been harassing and doxxing people for years and hiding behind the line of "it's public information somewhere on the internet".

Please stop insulting 4chan, I spend a lot of time there.

There actually isn't a ton to explain because it's light on context, other than something called "Kiwi Farms" bullied them.

Because he was deemed an "lolcow", which is a cutesy way of saying his suffering was enjoyable to them.

The only options were either joining kiwifarms and staying with them for months to get personal information, or getting the attention of some big name youtube news.

Too old and busy for the former, so I tweeted this to Philip DeFranco.

4chan eventually grew up and got a job where they can cover their tattoos. Kiwi Farms shaved their head and stuck a Prince Albert up their nose.

You know, in my mind I feel like this is also true of people who practice cancel culture. If they can drive someone into such misery that they just end themselves then it's like a victory won. "We removed a problematic person from the planet!"

They don't want to hear an apology or a promise to be better, they just want to know that person can no longer exist so their stain is wiped.

It's a shame he couldn't have just removed himself from the bullshit of social media & the internet before taking his life, those people are scum that led him to it.
This is why I rarely partake is any sort of arguments or anything now online or social media.

Yea, I used to be more petty too (Tho I would say I was never too cruel to anyone) , never get drawn into message board arguments (thats what kiwi farms looks like) or anything anymore, its easy to get sucked into caring, and it sucks it got to this guy.

The difference between 4chan and KF is that 4chan had segments of the membership that would do this; KF is literally a community that revolves around doing this.

The looming threat of Kiwi Farms

OK, but I've never seen Kiwi Farms just go after random people. Every thread I've seen has been devoted to screwballs like Dawkins/XSquader who get into fights with McDonalds employees over 8 cents tax on a cookie. So what's the other side of the story we're not hearing here?

Why was there a "looming threat?"

Wow, look at this.

https://twitter.com/jake_lazerus/status/1409110108077015042

If you want a target, there you go.
I see, Josh Moon is the owner of Kiwi Farms. You guys have to include context when posting this stuff.

Joshua Conner Moon is known as "Null" on the website, and is its administrator.

Views
He is loosely associated with the alt-right.

Moon supports Trump, referred to Obama as "The N***** in chief", and believes in the racist and rank white genocide conspiracy theory.

He thinks feminism ruins Western culture and says the word "cuck" a lot, probably because it rolls off the tongue well. And the company he keeps is overtly racist and spouts about "white genocide" and wanting to destroy feminism with fire.

More controversially, he has posted that Muslims and refugees need to be killed. In an attempt to defend him, some Kiwi Farms users allege that these statements are not serious,[citation needed] but it's his choice and consequence to toe the line between being a creepy asshole and making an over-the-top joke.

He is also an anti-semite.

He's pro-Julian Assange, saying he would rather be set on fire by ISIS than deal with the UK government in reference to Assange's arrest.

Runs in the family

His own mom was a Kiwi member and has been in trouble with the police.[34] She also worked for Keller Williams as a realtor until she was fired when her activity on Kiwi Farms seemingly exposed.

Banned
He was banned from YouTube due to bullying and harassment.

His @KiwiFarms Twitter account was permanently suspended for racism.

He was also apparently banned from PayPal.

He was sacked as an admin for 8chan for allegedly promoting pedophilia.

Sounds like a super great guy. I hope this Near guy didn't get bullied for being trans or something.

I'm just saying that when somebody is worried about the internet exposing them for something, then that thing is never good (IE, a "Drake" situation.) And so far nobody has provided any fucking context to any of this. Only that there was a "looming threat" from Kiwi Farms.

They track internet users who are so bizarre that they become memes. Our own Dawkins/XSquader had a thread about him. Where as the staff here enforces some rules about what you can say about people, Kiwi Farms is utterly ruthless in their critiques of people. I've also noticed a lot of racism and transphobia over there.

OK, I found the threads on Kiwi Farms.
I'm reading now.

This shit goes deep and it looks like it's mostly nerd in-fighting. Arguments about SNES carts, ROM dumps, money, etc. This wasn't something over sexual orientation, etc (EDIT - maybe it was, seems like there's some mocking about him being a furry or something). It looks like he suffered from severe depression and was fighting a lot with his gaming community. I think Kiwi Farms cataloguing his fights was a source of anxiety, but I don't know if I'd say he was "targeted" by them. But I'm only one page in. I'll keep reading. But this honestly reads like a fight between Tails and Error over GameFAQs policy.
