Articles & Happenings is the third attempt at a news board on the Kiwi Farms. It is a cursed place. Every moderator who has been assigned here has resigned within a year. During 2016, the political crossfire was so bad it spread to different boards and culminated in me banning American news discussion entirely for several months. It has been deleted in its entirety twice. There is no actual discussion here, it's people posting garbage. It leans much further right than the rest of the site and doesn't particularly conduct discussion because dissenting opinions are dogpiled by a thousand memelords posting shit they read on /pol/ without any critical analysis.

The only rules that can be enforced are empirical ones with boolean violation answers. New threads must cite a real source directly and must use the headline of the article as a thread title without any editorializing. Articles must be archived in some way and must link to the original article. Replies that are one word or a reaction images are automatic one-month bans from the board.

I'm creating this now because it seems like this place is here to stay and is one of the largest areas of the entire site. I might as well throw in bare minimum effort to improve it. I don't even try to find mods for here because they will quit, without exception. I've added new prefixes ("Business" and "Crime") just now.

Discuss.


New threads should be made like this.

I'm still amused with all the things that get said about KF that we are resorting to word filters cause people said naughty words.

I mean in all fairness we have tons of word filters for all sorts of weird shit that has nothing to do with no-no words. I think Null just likes fucking with people and trying to encourage them to use more interesting insults. I still think the weirdest one I've found so far, though, is the one that will automatically replace Monsanto if you try to write it out without doing fucky shit to circumnavigate the filter.

While I agree with you, I get the vibe those were done cause it was funny moreso than because of complaints about the words themselves.

Or maybe people can just stop complaining about what other people post as long as it's not disruptive to board functioning?

Shocking I know.

I don't remember the reason but I think I remember hearing there was a reason the crop guys. Whether it was "annoy some goofball who rants about them" or something I don't recall.
 
First they came for the milk, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not milk.

Then they came for the hashbrowns, and I did not speak out—
Because I did not have a hashbrowns.

Then they came for the retards, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not an retard.

Then they came for the jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not jew.

Then they came for the niggers, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not nigger.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Muhammad/Muslims will get it's own filter eventually at this rate.

If you listen to Alex Jones, it's either Muslims or the Chinese behind everything that Jews do. And yet, there seems to be a certain difference in the power that either group has to impose restrictions on other people's speech vs. Jews.
