Discord has a much larger userbase tham KiwiFarms.

Discord's admin team doesn't condone or call for this type of stuff, it just so happens that people used their platform for bad things. It's near impossible to manually keep an eye on things at their scale, and doing so would violate people's privacy as it's a messaging platform with plenty of private communities and chats.

The admin of KiwiFarms actively condones and engages in the harassment of people. It's quite literally their founded purpose. Chris Chan isn't a great person, but she doesn't deserve harassment. The KiwiFarms community went after one socially-awkward person with a neurological condition, and then decided it wanted to go after anybody else who might be slightly socially awkward.

I was in a community one time with someone who was socially awkward, but genuinely a well-meaning person. I'm not naming names, but I eventually found out that people had a harassment campaign against her for the most mundane of reasons.

"Becoming associated" with "petty" harassers is misleading and you know that. They were founded to be an harassment campaign, and grew to harass others to the point of suicide, which they then continue to mock after death. All this because a bunch of sad individuals need to put others down in order to feel better about themselves when in actuality they're worse than the people they harass to the point of killing themselves for an escape.

I hope you know that you and anybody else who uses that site will never amount to anything more than accessories to crime. If you really need to feel better about yourself, then howsabout you delete your KF account, go outside, and get a life?
