The difference is kiwifarms was built to harass people; those other platforms were not.

Kiwifarms deserve no love, but this argument doesn't add up the slightest. Instagram was founded to make money from its users, so why would I allow it to operate if people kill themselves because of the peer pressure displayed in such social networks?

The peer pressure isn't the stated goal of Instagram.

Doxxing and harassment are the stated goals of KF.
