So we should keep up Kiwifarms because something similar has happened on Twitter? Is that the logic? Instead of removing one of the evils let's keep them both up because fairness or something like that?

The logic is that we shouldn't use some sort of "one drop" thinking to characterize a platform as broadly evil based on its worst users.

  The problem here is that KF does not have "substantial noninfringing uses", it's all harassment even if most of it is non-fatal.

  > to characterize a platform as broadly evil based on its worst users. It's literally the purpose of KiwiFarms. It's all their users. Any forum board not dedicated to "lolcows" (what they call the people the harass, because they can be "milked for laughs") is in the off-topic section. I don't think you're aware of what KF is. It's not just a free-form social platform like Twitter. It's specifically for documenting, and scheming to harass lolcows.

  It's not "one drop" thinking. It's 99.999% of the drops.
