I am informed that the reason CloudFlare finally dropped Kiwifarms like an overripe dog turd is because the KF hate mob tried to SWAT an American trans person who had fled to Northern Ireland ... by phoning in bomb threats to a bunch of restaurants in Belfast.

Bomb threats. In Northern Ireland. Which is in a state of heightened tension already due to the likelihood of Liz Truss tearing up the border protocol with the EU and holing the Good Friday Agreement below the waterline.

These people are so transphobic they didn't think twice about trying to reignite a dormant civil war. That's terrorism.
