It's 2005 and you stumble upon this website called kiwi farms, what do?

[neger psykolog]

I was just thinking about how many people on Twitter insist this website is "ontologically evil" or whatever faggot terminology.
They always do it on Twitter or social media but what if social media didn't exist yet? What if it was like 2005 and you came across a thread on here making fun of trannies or some faggot furry?

What would you do? Would you copy past the URL and post is everywhere so others could avoid the same "bad place"? Would you go for the ole Streisand strategy of mentioning the name but refusing to link to it?

Probably not the answer you are looking for but I think I would have forgotten, the site wouldn't have stood out back then.

Wow you're just going to forget about or ignore a website making fun of transtrenders or furry faggots?

i wouldve absolutely LOVED IT here.

In 2005 I'd mostly be shocked at how slick this website looked instead of the more limited phpbb places like this were using back then

What did Kiwi Farms look like when it was created?

Definitely wouldn’t have stood out it wasn’t until the sjws and the blue sky faggot types decided every opinion that’s not theirs is a hate crime

Lurk and see if there's any games.

I'd see if I could buy it and turn it into an extremely racist MySpace clone.

Forums talking about other forums didn't seem very common in 2005, did it? Generally, talking about internet forums in 2005 just made you weird.

there was a similar site to kiwifarms, in the 2000 Portal of Evil

There were multiple. But most of them died off when forums became less popular online

If the website as it exists now existed back then? It wouldn't get the same reaction.

The people who constantly bitch about the website I'm pretty sure aren't truly that offended by the nature of it, they're just groups of pathetic control freaks like Fong who are pissed that this isn't a subreddit where they or one of their buddies who jerk off in dresses can ban anyone who doesn't suck up to them or help them run PR control. So then they go on Twitter to assure people KF is the most evil of all evil websites, they've even caused 4 people to kill themselves, and it needs to be destroyed.

Personally I'd think it was really weird that a bunch of people were on some gay forum to talk about other people on the internet, so I'd imagine everyone who uses KF is a hardcore proto nerd and leave.
That's possibly why we've had characters like Android Raptor; back in the day, using a forum like this sort of was weirder, since the internet mattered less. Plus you could just outright call people racial slurs on most other websites, so if you were here, it was 100% for the love of petty internet gossip.

 

[Stephanie Bustcakes]

There was. It was called Something Awful.

 

[We Are The Witches]

I keep seeing a rise of the use of the word "ontological", like "ontologically evil", not just in your meme OP.

It's a fucking website that people use to talk about stuff they would in a Discord server as well, it's legal and is mostly inconsequential gossipping, there is no "ontologically evil" here.

To answer you, I wouldn't have done anything differently. Sign up and talk about what I want.

 

[Dick The Birthday Boy]

I mean a lot of websites and their users "behaved" like Kiwi Farms does now. People calling each other niggers and faggots was simply how we said hello.
I'd probably be bummed that there weren't more actual kiwis, check out the Spoony thread, then forget about it.

 

[The Magnificence]

I probably wouldn't have given it a lot of thought either way, but only because in 2005 the thought never crossed my mind that almost the entire mainstream internet would be seized and weaponized by troons, wokes, pedos and their ilk.
