I love you, Josh, and I 100% agree with you. You should've never given the gender-war faggotry a platform in the first place. I sincerely hope this is a lesson learned bcause I want Kiwi Farms to succeed.
Not shutting down those man-hate/woman-hate threads the second they popped up was a huge mistake. It's fundamentally changed the culture of the site by enabling the perma-assmad weirdos who are obsessed with that stuff. It's just like allowing loli, unfortunately. It spreads like a plague and takes over the ENTIRE site. It's inherently negative and unfunny. You can't reliably contain it. I don't want to read the bickering between Fuentes fags and raped hamplanets. If these losers weren't catered to, then I think this Tom situation would've unraveled differently.
You didn't do anything wrong. What we found out about Tom's bedroom habits is hilarious, and that's the point. We're here to laugh. If people want to get all righteous and vindictive, cry "life ruination" like this at all compares to other situations, then they should fuck off back to Reddit.
I'm begging you to please consider closing down those gender war threads. I know they're active, it'd be an unpopular decision, but this isn't as enjoyable of a place anymore because of them, and this debacle's evidence of that. This reactionary, pants-shitting discourse is like Xitter in the worst way. The vibe's shifted.
Ignoring the worst offenders (on my end) hasn't made it better because the influence trickles, and there're countless stragglers. Those threads need to go.
