Today, Katie Herzog and Jesse Singal present the first ever BARPod two-parter in known human history. This duology will chronicle, in exhaustive detail, a calamitous struggle between Kiwi Farms, a gossip board and/or harassment amplifier and/or literal digital version of Hitler’s mountain rereat and/or actual terrorist organization (depending on you ask), and Keffals, a Twitch streamer and trans activist. The story somehow also involves, in no particular order, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Cloudflare, the entire mainstream media, Northern Ireland, Destiny, The Ulster Volunteer Force, The Ulster KiwiFarms Force, “ChudLogic” (?), questionable grooming allegations, unquestionable helping-minors-get-hormones allegations, GoFundMe, mean chat logs, even meaner chat logs, doxxing, harassing, stalking, Ethan Ralph, stealthing, screaming, swatting, and Reply All’s Alex Goldman. (Plus some more stuff in Part 2.)

(CORRECTION VIA COMMENTER: “Small correction on the go fund me targets. The original goal was way lower (30k I think). Everytime the goal was reached, a new goal was set in 10k increments. This article shows the goal at 70k just after they passed 60k in donations. I'm sure the wayback machine will have the original page. https://www.sportskeeda.com/esports/twitch-streamer-keffals-left-traumatized-getting-swatted”) (Wayback does confirm this: https://archive.ph/WA0XR)

(POSSIBLY OVER-CAUTIOUS CLARIFICATION FROM JESSE, 9/12/22: We’ll mention this in the next ep but I do want to be crystal clear that there were firearms present at Keffals’ arrest. The London, Ontario Police Chief’s statement noted, “In this case, firearms were displayed until it was determined a threat no longer existed. I acknowledge that for the average citizen, having heavily armed police officers attend your residence would be traumatic. I understand this was a traumatic and shocking experience for Ms. Sorrenti.” And here’s what Keffals told Vice: “They told me to put my hands up, and when I get to the door, there are three police officers,” Sorrenti said. “Two of them were standing up and one of them in the middle was crouched down behind a riot shield with an assault rifle perched on top of the shield.”)

Notes:

Keffals claims to be woken up to an assault rifle in her face, leading to the campaign against KiwiFarms

Keffals claims Julie TerryBerry, David “Near” Ginder, and Chloe Sagal committed suicide as a result of harassment from KiwiFarms (a bit more about this in Part 2)

Clara Sorrenti @keffals

Julie Terryberry, Chloe Sagal, and David "Near" Ginder were targets of severe online harassment from Kiwifarms and took their own lives as a result of it. CEO @eastdakota of @Cloudflare needs to act. Honor their memory and drop them. #CloudflareSupportsTerrorists #DropKiwifarms

A written threat to Keffals

Yesterday as I was ending the stream where I gave updates on the #DropKiwifarms campaign, this was posted online just outside my address. Shortly afterwards, Northern Ireland police came to the apartment I’m staying in because someone had attempted to swat me.

Never have (podcast) heroes

Nontraditional Gary @AGoldmund

Jesse Singal is an absolute ghoul who gets off on other peoples’ misery and mistreatment and then waddles back to saying “I can’t believe everyone is so mad at me, why I’m just broadcasting both sides!” No more bad faith operator in the biz, except maybe his much dumber cohost.

Thread -- it was dumb for me to respond angrily and impulsively. Any points I need to make I make here. Initial ragetweets deleted.

Jesse Singal @jessesingal

@AGoldmund I went for a run and am more chill now and am gonna delete my tweets. If it's not about PJ, what was the point of saying it was? Our pod was fine. We made fun of the dumpster fire some (sue us) but we expressed sympathy for the victims, because they were railroaded.

Jesse Singal @jessesingal

@AGoldmund When you say stuff like this, you should realize that you're talking, in part, about people like PJ (I don't get the sense you care if it's me instead, which, fine). "Being mean to racists is cool" -- yes, Twitter decided PJ was a racist. Congrats! That's all I got. 👋

The above is a message from her to me. But that's not why I'm posting this. She got into a slapfight with a Kiwi Farms user and called him a racial slur ("Sanchez"), an ableist slur ("r-tard"), and more. She bragged to @burnbern8 about telling someone to kill themselves.

Keffals sponsors the DIY HRT directory, instructing minors on how to get hormone replacement therapy

Clara Sorrenti @keffals

just sponsored the diy hrt directory so trans teens can access hormones below the age of 18 in texas and other states with anti-trans laws. everytime you call me a groomer you will make me go harder

Clara Sorrenti @keffals

i am proud to announce i am sponsoring the diy hrt directory. healthcare is a human right, and no one should be denied gender-affirming care because anti-trans extremists in office deny trans people their rights. this directory has saved lives and will continue to in the future. https://t.co/1Z0u1YYjRt
