Whether you love or hate KF, the power for unelected corporate nobodies to band together to rip sites off the Internet is something that needs to be opposed at every turn. You're gonna be next, the first time you say something objectionable - or you piss off some lunatic who is willing to claim you did and the powers that be opt to believe them unquestioningly. This conflict goes way beyond KF hosting assholes and asshole content. If we don't stand up to this in the short term, then in the long term the Internet is fucking finished.
KF is the wrong hill to die on. They are just determined to portray themselves as mustache twirling, Saturday morning villains. Skeletor is more personable and morally appealing than Josh.
I agree with your latter two points, but in this fight every hill is a hill to die on. Every inch we give is another inch that we are never getting back. And after the last few years there aren't very many inches left.
People like you might eventually discover that there are, in fact, no more hills to die on.
