He was littered‽
I really hope thats a typo and not some new tik tok shit like unalive
I hate that people are starting to actually use these censor-bypass words in real life… makes adults sound like children!
I remember a teacher on reddit saying children were literally saying unalive in class.
People also say LOL instead of laughing. Kids are weird. I just hope it doesn't go into the mainstream.
So, kinda like how all slang and colloquial language sounds at first? Not like prefixes aren't a part of our language either.
Besides, there's plenty of words that get changed or replaced because what society considers offensive changes.
We don't use "cripple", "retard", or many other words.
In other news, unyoung man diswhispers at cloud
I get what you’re saying, but in this case it just has this… dystopian corporate essence to it. Instead of getting off these shitty platforms that censor words and idea, people just find ways around the censors while still using the platform. Platform keeps making out like gangbusters, society gets dumbed down a little more. It kind of reminds me of what people in China have to do to talk shit about their govt without getting in trouble, which is… not the direction we should be going.
Get off my lawn!
Lol that’s more of a classic word filter bypass, but it was pretty funny
Double plus ungood
(Panically empties gun at the general direction of where this gibberish came from)
I use swipe on my keyboard. It's possible they do too and they meant to type murdered. The letters are pretty close.
