One thing I haven't figured out in all the replies defending KF is WHY "making fun of weirdos" requires knowing & posting their address & phone number and keeping tabs on their physical location.

This seems like a pretty easy line to draw to start to show they're serious about keeping things "look but don't touch." Allowing doxxing seems akin to "won't someone rid me of the meddlesome priest" territory.

In my personal opinion, it's a figurative memento mori (I said FIGURATIVE) to some people who get a little full of themselves and think they're untouchable, and may in fact be consistently proven right by greater society as in Keffals' case (remember this person just earned around $100,000 Canadian in a GoFundMe campaign in one week). It's a reminder that this person, too, is human and is living a messy life on Earth just like the rest of us.
