Every time a swear word is censored on the internet, a cat video gets a million views, or something like that.
We’ve gone all the way around so now censoring a swear makes people more upset than actually saying it and I really don’t understand why.
Year 2000
Say ‘fuck’
People get irrationally mad
Year 2024
Say ‘fxck’
People get irrationally mad
What happened?
The younger generations decided that being offended by swear words is fucking stupid.
I’m an older generation and (generally) refrain from swearing myself, but seeing censored posts on Lemmy drives me fucking insane. This isn’t a preschool nor is it an advertiser-friendly place. We should keep it that way.
In fact, we should actively try to make it hostile to advertisements.
Fuck your goods I wipe my ass with your services.
And those motherfuckers are right.
Fuck y**h!
