Update Keffals updates (possible book announcement & abuse allegation against her)

  1. On April 2nd, Clara reveals that she has made a 90 page book draft during rehab, which she aims to eventually publish as a book. That book is planned to serve as an autobiography of hers, during the Drop Kiwi Farms / Go Fund me era. Keffals says that people called her a liar, who contradicted herself. She also says that due to trauma, she struggles to talk about it (and therefore provide her side of the story along with corrections and possible receipts. She states that she wants to move on from that era and heal.
  2. On April 3rd, on a reply to a conservation that is partially unavailable (as some posts are either deleted or private), Staroxvia alleges that Keffals abused a friend of the former while being employed by the later. Note: Staroxvia is the trans person who made a thread about Keffals and the GFM shortly after Mutahar's expose about Keffals went live. It is quite possible that the abused former employee and the editor who provided Staroxvia with these screenshots is the same person, but that is speculation.

I’m genuinely surprised she could write 90 pages. I’m not confident that it’s going to be good, but that’s a lot more than I thought she could do

Remember how Stephen King sped-wrote several of his novels in a short period of time while high on cocaine? I get the feeling it may be a similar scenario…

you have to wonder how wide the margins are and if it’s double- or single-spaced. how big is the font? all the “page count, not word count” tricks. 

i cannot imagine an imprint that would publish her, not after every big publishing house has been in trouble for printing lies. she’s not famous enough for the bigger imprints and the smaller ones who’d be interested in a memoir from a very online trans woman would likely have someone on staff who knows about the “controversies.”

she could always self-publish. people would laugh at her but if she marketed it the right way and kept out of more trouble it might get picked up for reprint by an actual publisher. that’s a lot of work, though, and i don’t see her as willing to work that hard.

It's super convenient that now that she is back and has spent all the money that she doesn't want to touch on that anymore as she would have to admit that she just used her fan base and any good will she had to scam her fans to pay for her move, rent, and other things (therapy, stream gear, helping her friends). Anything she says will probably point to that she greatly mismanaged the funds so she will just never talk about it again.

As for the book good luck finding someone to publish it with the backlash she would get especially since every time she rears her head there seems to be someone with another terrible tale to tell about her.

She will keep streaming to her decreased viewership and never talk about any of the "drama" surrounding her. She will bury her head and maybe try to talk about politics again which will lead her to get pushback and then like drama content she will never broach it again. She learned from the greats such as Hassan,destiny, and even mutahar (all people she has fought with) that drama content isn't fun anymore once you have been the subject because you don't have a perch to look down on others from.

something tells me if that book ever sees the light of day it'll be the most revisionist piece of history we've seen this side of the post civil war reconstruction era.... and if it doesnt it's just getting used to milk idiots for patreon money

I know people here hate Mutahar with a passion, and I hate to use such a word for some jack ass online I barely know but I do share the same sentiment. All of that aside his video on Keffels was largely spot on if you are looking for a detailed breakdown of all the vile things done by her , compiled by someone who isn't outspokenly transphobic. I just can't comprehend why in the world does she think anyone wants her back

Even if you disregard Mutahar's video, there is Staroxvia's thread (linked in the op). And Staroxvia is a TRANS WOMAN & FRIEND OF EDEN KNIGHT (arab trans woman, who due to her parents commited suicide). You can't disregard her on principle like Muta.

Mutahar is an "anti-SJW" crybaby and is friends with scumbags like Nuxtaku and I think Keemstar, broken clock theory doesn't mean that he isn't garbage.

u/angeltay 2d ago edited 2d ago

He’s a broken clock, like when he called people out for still using X and giving Elon ad revenue when they think he’s a Nazi. A POS who is right sometimes

Edit: lol you people are so salty about not giving up X and giving Elon money

Ironically enough I’ve seen very little hate on Muta before that video dropped

u/Alf_PAWG 2d ago

I think before that vid, muta probably had a lot of plausible deniability. Like yeah he surrounded himself with scumbags for years but when you're just the guy who recaps reddit threads about Jeff the killer and whatever crypto scam that's going on nobody is gonna focus on you.

u/LegateLaurie 2d ago

Before that time he wasn't doing as much drama crap iirc. I used to watch him when he did creepy pastas and then deep web exploration and then stopped watching him pretty quickly when he started doing drama tbf

Muta may be a raging narcissist that surrounds himself with giga weirdos like turkey tom and nuxtaku but I have yet to see evidence that he's as openly hateful of minorities as the other two.

Do we have to call every asshole a narcissist?

u/ballknower871 1d ago

A good chunk of them are. Comes with the territory of being a content creator. Thats why not just anyone can get there.

How is he a narcissist..

You cannot be serious lmao.

I think Keffals made her contribution to the online sphere with the Kiwifarms campaign (which genuinely broke ground at the time). There's good material for a book there.

Everything afterwards, including the gofundme debacle, are grossly disqualifying and in my opinion she should bow out of the discourse, as she clearly half-wants to do anyway.

u/Business-Plastic5278 2d ago

Broke ground in all the wrong ways.

KF is still up and far stronger and there is now a blueprint for drooling nutters to use to try and remove legal protections from websites they dont like.

u/the_alchemist_el 16h ago

I just watched an investigation on her. She is horrific. She needs to be shut down.

u/AdrenalineVan 15h ago

Lol did she realise her videos sucked so she's writing a book instead

u/Key_Jaguar_2197 11h ago edited 11h ago

So Keffals gave up pretending Kiwi Farms is gone?

That whole era is deeply embarrassing, KF was right about everything and all it achieved was radicalizing a forum that a lot of internet culture flows out from, much of the online anti trans backlash can be traced back to that failed crusade. When a YouTuber wants to catch up on the latest gossip they read KF, and since everything on KF is now radically anti trans (and despite what Keffals tries to say that wasn't the case at all before DKF) they take on that perspective.

Kiwi Farms was right about Keffals, they were right about Kris Tyson and mark my words they'll be proven right about Finnster with the amount of pedos they've exposed surrounding him.

Kiwi Farms is useful for gathering archives. If only the majority of its userbase weren't hateful towards any minority...
