One Miilllllion! visitors... in a few years that figure will go up to 6...
And nothing of value was lost.
Yeah they do. I polled ten normies today. Two recognized the name, specifically as "the stalking and swatting website".
It was all done by that Chris Chan troll from 3 years ago and who's subfourm was shutdown and they keep fail doxing. Also nice wishing death on somebody who you think is a highly connected federal agent.
So Turkey Tom badly damaged control for Null and its pretty bad
they simply don't - i'm sorry to have to say " that never happened "
Correct. As you'll often see in Chris Chan threads, people there think he's this worldwide celebrity when the vast majority of people have no idea who he is. A tiny percentage of society follow any online shit.
define normal because barstool sports bros have referenced it in the past, as has buzzfeed and then there's the whole chris-chan connection. do the over 40 know about it? no. but if you have been online in the last half decade and are under 40 you know about kiwifarms. At minimum you know of shit like them hosting certain videos or having the dox of certain trannies or that its where you go if you want to know the entire background of e-celebs.
there's a selection bias, if you ask people if they're subscribed to any youtubers or twitch streamers and then if they say yes proceed to ask the question you'll get a lot more hits. if you're already extremely online you will have heard the name like when the host of Taylor Swift's boyfriend's favorite podcast messed up the name when talking about chris-chan on an episode recently. of course you probably don't know who taylor swift is so why would you give a shit.
Where I work, they're always playing her on the radio, so believe me, I know. I'm just saying that I've never seen or met anyone who knows what the Farms is, IRL. And another point...
This is quite true in my experience. Kiwi Farms? Never heard of it. Chris Chan? Who's that? On and on, it goes. I've even mentioned certain popular "lolcows" to people, and nobody cares. Todd's right - most folks really couldn't care less. I've asked quite a lot of people, across the spectrum, and nobody knows, and if I tried to explain it all, the gamut of responses ran from "mmm, that's weird, yeah," to "I don't really care." I've found that a lot of people really don't know internet slang, either. Incel? SJW? I've met one person, one, who actually knew what "woke" meant. And these aren't just normies, either. A lot of them are quite online themselves.
I will smoke you.
Come on, with a million monthly users, is that even possible?
You mean Isabella Yanke? Why won't you mention her name? And since we brought up Turkey Tom's video, here's his video about Isabella, an example of Tom using KF as a resource on a topic:
That's a reference to detransitioners who said they detransitioned due to reading KF, trannies who said they didn't get The Snip because they read all the horror stories that were banned when /r/NeovaginaDisasters was suspended on Reddit, and kids who said they considered transitioning but decided not to after reading KF. Those are all examples of KF saving lives.
How is allowing schizos on the internet helping them? A lot of people are too mentally ill for the internet. When you allow these very crazy people online and they end up being triggered there and acting very crazy, don't blame the rest of the internet for noticing there's a crazy person in their midst.
It's not but it's funny but heaps of kiwis seem to feel the need to moral fag nonstop and suck the fun out of everything.
That was honestly the reason I only ever lurked on KF. The threads became a total chore to read. Especially when they have to blogpost about how better they feel they are than the cows. Nobody cares you can cook better than Jack. Just fucking laugh at the slob with the rest of us.
So I might be on disability for autism, unable to hold down a job, my family hates me, I have no future prospects, I masturbate to furry porn, have no friends, haven't seen the sun in years and have a serious drug and alcohol problem.
TBH, I think anyone other than him at the helm of KF, there wouldn't be a KF. It would've either given into increasing SJW censorship demands long ago, or they would've given up, decided it was too much hassle and moved on to other things. I like the internet better with crazy people like Null on it. I just wish Null himself wasn't so cranky and was happier, is all. I mean, I get that he relishes being able to stick it to the troons and that all the Kiwis get vicarious pleasure from watching him beat them at their own game, but I do wonder if this cat-and-mouse game with the troons is really making him happy at a deeper level. I know a lot of people see Null as a destructive force but my impression of Null is that he's at heart a creative person. Hence why he briefly studied literature and why got into world building at Blockland, that was a kid's creative impulse that was kinda perverted by the social aspect of that forum. Null wants to make things, he definitely sees KF as his creation (there's also something blatantly aesthetic about the presentation of lolcows on KF, like it's "a gallery of fools"), but is this really how he wants to express his creativity? I remember watching Null's programming series on his personal channel and noticing how calm and zoned-out he sounded in those videos. There's something about programming that gets Null to that Zen state that nothing else does. Why can't he put that to better use than just on KF? I even told him something to that effect in an e-mail, and Null being Null I guess he took it as a backhanded insult, but I still wonder what life could be like for him after or past KF.
Me too, bud. Life ain't all that bad. Hang in there. And at least we haven't fucked our mom, or even thought of that as a possibility.
That reminds me. Many times Null has claimed KF is a comedy site and people should question before they post if their post is funny, instead of just seething. Has Null ever been funny even once? All he does is seethe. Ditto with his favored users.
