IIRC a single user had a sarcastic "kill count" added to their profile description, which was then reported as the website itself having that.

That's not sarcasm.

> That's not sarcasm.

Regardless of the user's intent, I think it's at least misleading to claim that it represented the site as a whole.

I personally believe that it's sarcastic considering Kiwi Farm's history with Trans Lifeline. They exposed the founders for embezzling money and not answering the phones; the founders were removed by the board, but not before going on a public crusade claiming Kiwi Farms was responsible for the death of someone. This was back in 2016 and is the earliest instance of that claim, as far as I've been able to tell.

I spent a considerable amount of time digging through internet archives to better understand the drama. It became clear to me that, while the owner and many users of the site are deplorable, they are not the cartoonishly evil caricature that people claim they are.

Thank you for this insight, I had no idea.

I came to know KiwiFarms from Byuu's death so I have a tendency to believe many of the negative things said about them.

But the media misrepresenting something like that is absolutely believable and I'm glad you were able to set me straight.
