Kiwifarms was not a 'nazi' forum, it's so easy to tell who never actually lurked there or did enough due diligence to actually investigate for themselves what the site actually hosted lmfao

It's just a coincidence that there are so many threads with titles like 'what is the final solution to the _____ question?'

Cloudflare and DDOS-Guard allow the booters to exist.

Two sides of the same coin. I was referring to whatever stallman may or may not have been wrong or right about.

Point of order, KF weren’t nazis. If we’re doing gradations of abhorrence from zero to Nazi, KF was probably a 3.

Kiwifarms is not a "nazi website". There's a whole subforum devoted to documenting and mocking the alt right and its weird personalities.

Two of the "lolcows" prominently featured on the front page are Ethan Ralph and Nick Fuentes. They're not nazis (they're antisocial morons), but anybody who would call the KiwiFarms a nazi site would call them nazis. The News's approach to Fuentes has been to pearlclutch and basically make him look cool to the young guys he recruits for his political cult. If anyone remembers all the embarrassing stuff that came out about him recently, guess where that information came from. Genuinely the KiwiFarms does a better job of keeping people from falling for fringe politics than the people who set out to do that. Sometimes laughter is the best medicine.

Nick Fuentes is definitely a nazi, which is in no way incompatible with him being an antisocial moron. Just because KF mocks Fuentes doesn't mean they're the only or even a canonical source of embarrassing info about him. Also, anyone who studies extremism can tell you that every extremist movement is rife with infighting and petty interpersonal rivalries.

I have serious doubts that anybody trying to get people banned from the net would have stood up to real Nazis. They are just not the types.

The word "Nazi" seems to have expanded in meaning a lot recently, not sure the 1940s Germans would recognize these people as Nazis.

Twitter users are conducting a special military operation to denazify the Internet.

For many, the word just means anyone you disagree with now.

Some people have tilted the pronunciation of the word into 'not-see'. Out of sight, out of mind.

The very essence of a thought-terminating cliche.
