I think hearing ideas you disagree with is the only way to grow and learn. Listen to what others say and then you can argue against their ideas and -maybe- change hearts and minds.

I like clitoris farms and MN because there are a lot of different people from different background with beliefs that are different to mine. in some cases, it’s opened my mind to different points of view and conversely, I became stronger and developed better arguments to support my beliefs.

One thing that really pisses me off with politicians and TRAs is that they don’t even try to understand gender critical ideas. If they could move past “you’re a bigot who should die in a fire” then I think (give me 🌈) we could move forward.

Ah, I see what you did there.

Now its called clitoris farms are we getting dad jokes galore?
Wonder if our fearless leader will change its name, even just for a day. Null? Wanna?

But the logo does look like a clitoris, to be fair. Maybe the new name will catch on (I know, give me 🌈)

As a compromise: Shewee Farms?

I think some might be getting a leeetle carried away with the idea of KiwiFarms becoming a feminist utopia as opposed to the last bar on the Internet which will still let you in.

Can we not impose a feminist utopia on it by force?

Oh God I'm well away with the fairies, I think we should stage a coup although I have no clear idea what that would look like.

First off, you can't stage a coup on KiwiFarms. It is one man, one vote. Jersh is that man, he has that vote.

Secondly, if you did it would effectively be like the City of Ankh-Morpork in the Terry Pratchett novels. It gets invaded repeatedly because it has next to no standing army. But after a few weeks of stomping around yelling that they're in charge, the invaders realise they're just one more faction and also wonder why they're wearing an "I <3 Ankh-Morpork" t-shirt.

I like the idea in general. I don't like that "pride" is part of it because that feels like it encompasses lesbians.

Awwww c'mon, we can do it.
What happened to stiff upper lip, British manners, queueing?

Pretty sure the queueing will do it, I mean we are very well known for our queue etiquette. That'll win over the clitoris farmers for sure.

Ah, I never ever got on with Terry pratchett books. Really not my thing.

If its only one man then that makes a coup much easier.

Especially if he is potentially in the market for a British terf wife! Any FWRers willing to make an honest man out of Suzi Quattro's fat nan for the cause?

For the avoidance of doubt/sealions, I am joking. I do not actually think any FWRers should try to stage a coup of the unholy alliance of people banned from everywhere else that is KF. No body would actually want that poisoned chalice.

Do we know why Josh doesn’t like Brits?

He has presumably noted that our colonising instincts extend as far as his farms, and indeed him himself. Soon enough it will be Shewee plantations.

Send the boy some jammy dodgers, ginger nuts and percy pigs. Or perhaps his British terf wife-to-be could offer him faggots followed by spotted dick?

Is all this desire to rename it Clitoris Farms just because so many people have trouble finding it?

Or is it just a taunt to Keffels and Liz Fong-Jones because they'll never have one?
