I've only recently learned of this site, and being a NZer, with the name Kiwi in the title I assumed some sort of connection to NZ. But it looks like there isn't? It's American based, and when the NZ govt made a request related to the Christchurch mosque massacre, the admin told them to pound sand. So, why is it called Kiwifarms?

It's a corruption of the old name of the site, which is a reference to another site, which is named after the first and possibly most famous victim of that community's stalking. See the History section of its Wikipedia article. It has nothing to do with New Zealand or kiwis, indeed.
