Joshua Conner Moon, who administers the website Kiwi Farms, posted an aggressive response in which he also described New Zealand as a “small, irrelevant island nation barely more recognisable than any other nameless pacific [sic] sovereignty”.

“I feel real bad for you guys, you’ve got a quiet nation and now this attack is going to be the first thing people think of for the next 10 years when they hear the name New Zealand,” it states.

“Tell your superiors they’re going to make the entire country and its government look like clowns by trying to censor the internet.”

Prior to the Christchurch attack that killed 50 innocent worshippers, alleged perpetrator Brenton Tarrant had conveyed his anti-immigration, pro-white views in Kiwi Farms along with similar alt-right forum 8chan, which Moon was once an administrator of.

New Zealand police emailed Moon on Sunday with a request to “preserve any posts and technical data including IP addresses, email addresses etc linked to these posts pending a formal legal request”.

Moon’s statement dismisses the police's request and adds, “if anyone turns over to you the information they’re asking for they’re not only cowards, but they’re f—ing idiots.”

Signed off with “Josh”, it ends: “And I don’t give a single solitary f– what section 50 of your f—-t law say about sharing your email. F— you and f— your shithole country.”

New Zealand Detective Senior Sergeant John Michael then replies: "Hi Josh. Appreciate your quick response. Will definitely consider what you have said."

Prior to allegedly embarking on the rampage, Tarrant posted a goodbye and encouraged his alt-right companions to keep “making memes and ‘shitposting’” on 8chan, which is the radical spinoff of online discussion site 4chan.
