You know you're in for a treat when the first page of every thread has the disclaimer at the top about feeling the need to tell people that you're better than the lolcow. People ignore that and a-log anyway, and it makes them look like pathetic retards to anyone skimming through. It didn't seem that long ago that people like Hirtes and Lagoona Blue got halaled for pulling that shit over and over.
Case in point, Jack Scalfani. Most of the thread is basically DIE JACK DIE and "look, I can totally cook better than this slob," and it's like dude, what? Jack Scalfani is just some stereotypical boomer - he's pretty much benign. There's nothing about him that means he ought to die, especially when KF itself literally has the zoo-sadists and the like catalogued, which brings me to this...
The only reason anyone even pretends to not hate Josh is because he's literally the only person in the world stupid enough to give up having a meaningful or fulfilling or enjoyable life, and live as an isolated incel in some cockroach hole in the third world, just to keep up a gossip website.
He'd have nothing without it, and its hilariously sad how he tries to make the site this all-in-one=place for all his socializing needs from gaming to politics because he cant exist anywhere without the trollshield of running the place he's at, but at one point in his life, he could have had a life instead, maybe even met a fat girl who'd settle for him, and lived somewhere that didnt look worse than CRP's toilet, if he wasn't a total retard.
Josh, and NEET literal-autists who spend all day every day on KF, cope that they're on the cross sacrificing for free speech. The reality is... they've devoted their lives to posting catty shit about some alcoholic or retard, or both, at the expense of being alone and losers, but if they acknowledged it they'd probably end themselves.
Ironically Null and his favored paypigs always mock "freeze peach" advocates, but then become the biggest free speech whiners themselves at their own convenience. Cause they're hypocritical retards who actually don't have any believes or ethics like they claim, but again, nobody wants to acknowledge "I'm a piece of shit just addicted to meaningless drama whoring, so much so I literally ruined my life for it."
This post encapsulates how I honestly feel about Kiwi Farms and Josh, as a whole. I mean, you've nailed it, honestly. It's why I brought up Nik Ritchie, because he's everything Josh wishes he was: Nik runs an unabashed gossip site, has gotten married, has had kids, is well respected in the same circles Josh frequents, and has gotten away unscathed from lawsuits and deplatforming attempts. Nik hasn't burned all his bridges, either, nor has he had to leave the States to run his site. Hell, his site has a worldwide userbase - you can look at submissions from all over. But Josh? He's the complete opposite, and when you take one good look at him, divorced from all the culture war inspired shit, what do you see? A sad sack of shit whom you're honestly surprised hasn't just necked himself yet.
I believe Josh solely created Kiwi Farms because he was desperate to prove he wasn't a loser, that he wasn't as bad as he himself felt, let alone what others felt about him. I mean, imagine if you were Josh. AFAIK, he's never mentioned he's ever had a father. He hates his mother (yet depended on her quite a while), he hasn't had any luck with women, he spent his life in a Southern backwater, and the only people who even care to acknowledge he exists solely do so because he lets them say nigger openly. He longs for real, meaningful connection, but he's never going to get that. He hates other people and drives them away so that he won't feel bad when they inevitably dislike him. It would explain why he got so invested in CWC. Because here was, finally he must've thought, someone worse off than me. That's why he got into lolcows in the first place. Because he has to put up this front that he's this based alpha male who has his shit together, but he doesn't, not really. Josh uses the lolcow shit solely to avoid coming to terms with himself.
I mean, IIRC, didn't he call Caesar a loser for not having kids? By his own standards, Josh is a loser. He says men need to procreate? Well, shit, Jack Scalfani has two kids. Men should find a wife? Well, Wings of Redemption has a wife. So does DSP. Does anyone think Josh really gives a shit about trannies or free speech? He pretends to because if he loses KF, then that's it for him. He has to stare his ugly mug in the mirror and acknowledge that he will be forever alone over a fucking gossip site because he was too arrogant to get over himself. And you see it in his userbase too, with Dom Cruise being a great example.
And what's funny is that Josh could've easily made this work for him. He could've said yeah, I'm fucked up, but aren't we all? He could've really leaned into that, because as we all know, self-deprecation is the in thing right now. Josh could've easily made it work.
For the record, I don't hate Josh. I don't think he's this evil bastard like The Gays From LA feels others view him as. I see him as a lost, broken fellow who was likely failed by the adults in his life growing up. We've all met plenty of folks who fit such a description. I just feel like KF as an idea is great, but Josh has horribly botched the execution. Like I said, it's a miracle it's lasted as long as it has in the first place to be even able to be deplatformed by whoever.

Like, we know Null is a cranky bastard, why do you have to make him seem as perverse and as evil as possible? As if his shitty personality isn't enough to turn people off.
