Comment on Why are Kiwi Farms users being banned, despite their adherence to the instance rules?
davidgro@lemmy.world 1 day agoWhat part of “we don’t care for Discord either” don’t you understand?
Fine. Pretend we did care. Your point is still worthless for very obvious reasons: Discord has millions of users, and perhaps hundreds are pro-mass-violence. Most will never have any interaction with those that are. KF has maybe thousands of users (I’m not going to check) and roughly all of them are at least pro-evil, likely also pro-mass-violence given the opportunity.

Not all the members are. For example, the person whom I refer to, who got instance-banned for suggesting that perhaps Elon’s gesture didn’t have ill intent, and for being a KF member, is first and foremost a trans ally and has a trans (FTM) brother. She’s written many posts where she expresses her support for the trans community and that trans people are valid. He came out as transgender when she was eight, which would have made him thirteen at the time. She was actually the first to fully accept him for who he was, since she had always wanted a brother, and in her mind, this was the brother she had been waiting for since she was born. He’s always been the most special brother she could have, and that hasn’t changed, even with everything that’s happened. Alignment with a site doesn’t mean one endorses the actions of the more questionable members on the site. I can see that those who are against Kiwi Farms are from two demographics that see themselves at odds with it.
