Hey you can’t swear on the internet, reported /s

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (8 children)

why do people always get worked up about this?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 weeks ago

Cause it's fucking bullshit

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

Most of the time, these self censors come from people who use shitty controlled platforms like Instagram or TikTok, where several "bad bad" words get you shadow banned. Agreeing with that bullshit and bending the knee to corporate rule is not something anyone should be proud of

Unfortunately, I think apathy towards this, (while very cool and nonchalant and badass don't get me wrong) is about as annoying.

And it's interesting that I see these posts posing as apathy under every single complaint about censorship. I mean at some point it's reactionary.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

can you explain why that is

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

It's conservative in the most basic sense of the word (not in our modern political sense). You see someone upsetting the status quo (questioning why people need to censor things on an internet forum) and the reaction is: "Why do these people care so much? It's fine, there's no problem with censoring it's never bothered me." Most people think this way, but most people don't post about it.

There are two different ways to take it: one way is you actually agree with the censorship but either don't have an argument or don't want to argue so instead vaguely post about apathy, painting the other side as losers who care too much.

Another way is what I said before, it's a reactionary "ugh" as you pass by, wondering why people have their panties in a twist about someone censoring the word "kill" from one meme.

You can go straight to the source and find out! There's no bad crop or anything (though there does appear to be an unavoidable cookie pop-up).

Wy tf "kill" censored ❓❓

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Because TikTok, Instagram and YouTube think it's a booboo word so of course we all must adhere now.

Do we though? I'm questions all planet colors now. They have lied to me before.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes, amateur astronomers can make out some of the clouds with a decent-sized reflector, and have even taken photos for us.
