The issue for me is that this is a humorous website, and we’re not allowed to have that. While I can’t speak for individual members, this site is not here to push a political, religious or moral agenda. It’s here to laugh at things that people do in public because they can’t figure out that the Internet is public. I can understand why you might feel that some websites shouldn’t be allowed, because they do harm. But it’s yet to be proven that KF has resulted in any criminal action (other than DDoS attacks against it). This isn’t about protecting society, it’s about controlling it.At the end of the day, this is still a website generally built around observing and joking about weird people on the internet. Strange how people now see it as a sort of Verdun in the "battle for free speech". Maybe I'm just being naive, but I feel like things would be a lot quieter around here if people in general stopped treating it like some grand last bastion.
Christ, yes. It’s obvious that we’re under scrutiny and there are lots of hostile people waiting for any kind of slip-up. Being all “hur dur I’m guna [commit crime]” is not going to scare them off. Stop and think for God’s sake.That's been annoying the shit out of me. Null has been having a lot of trouble keeping the site up over the last couple weeks and so many people have reacted by being on their absolute worst behavior. Why can everyone just chill the fuck out and stop posting like 12-year-olds who just discovered 4chan until this all blows over?
