Because much like twatter, chans is quite watered down. It is true that the threads are archived, but there it is much more easier to push down unwanted discussion by the mods.
Before 2016, the /pol/ board could discuss nearly anything and it would get natural traction. Then 2016 happened and it met a deluge of bot threads and shill threads. All there to keep the users from talking. It has only gotten worse since then.
Now, one fateful April fools, the mods decided to merge boards for the day and decided to combine /pol/ with /mlp/. They expected the two to tear each other apart but there was newfound camraderie instead. The fact that the merged board was new, the amount of shill and bot threads drastically decreased. Then, the posting of horsepussy also discouraged shills from continuing posting. Because at the end of the day, most shills are people too and avoid the furry fandom most of the time. And the bluehairs weren't prepared to see horse vagoo.
It was here it became clear that the malaise plaguing /pol/ is entirely artificial and the mods had a hand in it. /mlpol/ would try to stay onsite until it became its own offshoot chan board.
Long story short, the mods have developed a system to suppress discussion. It doesn't work all the time but their algorithm goes along the lines of either declaring the topic to be off-topic and ship it to /bant/. And most /pol/ users loathe going to /bant/. Instantly 404 the thread out of nowhere. (Saw this first hand in a WEF thread that shows Putler's connection to it). And of course, the classic 'ban' the user for trying to bring up the subject.
And that is why they see KF as a threat. Unlike in chans where topics can be forgotten, here, lolcows are catalogued and organized for everyone to see. And last I checked, our leaders are acting exactly like lolcows. So that may be another reason.
Even back around the election, right after Clinton declared Trump voters were Literal Nazis and by fluke /pol/ was suddenly nothing but aboriginal skull memes overnight, there were two week-long federal funding freezes and miraculously all that shit vanished and the board was instantly a thousand times better, simultaneously, for a period that happened to last exactly the same amount of time. There's just no accounting for coincidence you dum conspiracy theorist
Thank you based Netherlands for continued access to KF and also for Poffertjes. and thank you Null for letting us continue to shitpost even as World War Troon rages on
You play the same game these people are playing. You form close knit groups that are highly discriminatory, hire people with your politics, and push your politics/policies onto the companies/governments you are associated with. Leftists did this over the course of generations and so should we. Its a long strategy that works and "right wingers" need to understand you cannot undo generations of indoctrination in one election or pine for a quick, violent revolution to immediately solve it.
These people have negatively impacted my life in various ways while I watch them reward themselves for it. I will never forgive them and I will do what I can to undermine them. I am no longer playing by "christian" rules and neither should any of you. Remember what these people want to do to you and your children.
Right wing "christians" are suicidal in thinking turning the other cheek works. I don't know were this generation of christians got this idea from but it defanged them and made virtue signaling as a christian easy.
The Christian ethics of forgiveness should apply to personal slights, people who have wronged you and you alone. Trying to force it to encompass forgiving LEADERS, who have been given a position of responsibility to protect others, only dilutes the justice of God that we all must pursue in order for true mercy to have a chance.
And they get this idea from Christian leaders who have sold their Christian view for the chance at liberal praise. They benefit from shepherdless lambs who are not trained to war against the world with firm but fair conviction.
I don't understand what's so special about this site in particular. 4chan did worse shit for years. I post way more edgy shit on RPG Codex than anything here multiple times a day. Talk.lol is 1000x more racist and has much of the same kind of content. I just don't get it.
Define "worse". Literally all these people care about is erasing all traces of information about them which they cannot control from the internet. That's why they are targeting archive sites as well.
It's not about racism or misogyny. It's about these people being able to write their own narratives and no evidence existing online to refute them.

I think a lot about that cliche about how evil cannot create, it only destroys. yeah the fact checkers will say AKSHUALLY that's a misquote and blah blah but I think it's notable how the sentiment has caught on and persisted. because regardless of the origin of the cliche, there's a resonance in the idea that creation and life are to be celebrated while destruction and death are to be feared, and that anyone who dedicates themselves to the pursuit of the latter is in some way perverting themselves.
through that lens, the reason why the tranny movement is repulsive becomes unambiguous. it is a movement dedicated entirely to destruction, not just the destruction of gender and behavioral norms, but also dissent against it in any form. plenty of movements exist which seek to perpetuate themselves without the destruction of others; see how easily the troons adopt the most shameful and repulsive tactics to destroy the ability of their opposition to oppose, and how single-mindedly they pursue it above all else. they create nothing, and act as if their behavior is necessary to stave off their own destruction in a society that has all but given them cultural carte blanche and rewards them with laurels and applause simply for stepping out into the daylight.
kiwifarms, by contrast, is a minor internet fiefdom concerned mainly with preservation: of embarassing things said on the internet, unflattering facts, and now that the gauntlet has been thrown, free speech to boot. we do not remove the ability of our fellow posters to post, and jersh even refuses to silence people openly talking shit about him on his own forum. even in the lolcow threads, all but the most brutally weening kiwifarms users do not seek to destroy those they have taken notice of, and instead preserve the existence of sensitive material in the event of its future destruction. the reason it draws troon ire, which is obvious to everyone here without this train of thought, is that it undermines their ability to destroy. not only that, the dogged solidarity of its members and the slobberdog himself draw an unflattering contrast to their own community, which exists in a constant state of backstabbing and volatility, and whose leaders are thrown off the reins almost as soon as they manage to grasp them. it's obvious to anyone who puts their own eyes to the situation that the unassuming troll forum whose users only want to peacefully shitpost in their own obscure corner of the internet are the sympathetic party, and the troons must exploit the goodwill of others ignorant of the situation by lying and declaring that this forum is in fact a vile hate community dedicated to destruction - through misinformation and the use of bullshit concepts like "stochastic terrorism" - in order to convince the public at large that this is not the case.
Something Awful is way worse as well but my theory is they have a lot of former members on twitter and a lot trooned out which allows people to gloss over them given they have the right politics™.
it's been a couple years since I actively posted there, but the troons infested SA and chased out their opposition a long time ago. they even had FYAD delisted for various -isms, due to troons spamming QCS with bullshit complaints (where have I seen that tactic before?), until Lowtax reinstated the board out of spite shortly before the sale was finalized

It's the tech trannies causing all the inconvenience. Transsexual skinwalkers are horrified by their own words and images being held up like a mirror in front of them. They'll keep trying to smash this mirror no matter what. Never mind that KF has less eyeballs on it in a year than one of their own twitter posts gets in an hour; their own eyeballs are glued to their threads, and they hate what they see of themselves, and then hate the honest, unfiltered reactions of people commenting on the same negative things. It borders on gelotophobia; distant laughter hurts them more than any physical beat down could. They've made it personal, and assume it's all personal for us too. Yet it's not. It's just words and pictures on the Internet retelling the same tale of a sexual predator in denial. How they arrive at this point often differs, yet the outcome is lockstep.
Partially true. I'm in Portugal using Cloudflare's DNS (RT - for instance, is censored by my ISP - Vodafone) and can only access the Farms on TOR. TL;DR; it seems to be a DNS issue.
Also, and most importantly, much love to all Americans that love their 1st and 2nd amendments.
Meanwhile, I'm American, and this supposed "America only" outage hasn't affected me in the slightest. Maybe the site is a little slower, but I can't be sure.

Have you never noticed how 80% of tech's 35 and under crowd are 100% on board with every single commie policy, every tranny agenda, etc? LFJ surely has arranged a cabal first out of Google and then out of all its adjacent companies, and it's gonna be an email list where they prod everyone they know every time there's another company that takes on the KF load.
I know it's been dead in NY for maybe 3 hours; Null had put something up on Telegram about it. But yeah, looked like maybe 80% of the US couldn't get through.
