Can’t stand it. Censoring yourself so some random ass company can make more ad revenue.
Fuck that.
Come to Lemmy. We’ll let you say “fuck”.
But not removed. Have to say B!tch instead…
Bitch?

Lmao nice we can say the word bitch. Based as fuck, bitch
LMFAO, which instances ban words so I can avoid making accounts there?
lemmy.ml is definitely one
Ahem,
Fuck Ass Bitch Motherfucker, Kill Fuckers with Their Own Fucking Cunt Shit, Goddamn.
Thank you for your time.
You called?
Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits fart turd and twat
Unless you’re on Lemmy.world.
Not like Lemmy doesn’t have a controversial slur filter itself.
Which makes no sense. How are the words picked? Is there a sliding scale, or an objectionable meter somewhere? Who decided that b!tch should be censored, but not cunt or skank?
But that’s about it. And god forbid you have differing ideology
What ideology are you talking about? Sure, you might just be a salty liberal or propertarian, but such vaguery could easily be a dogwhistle for something sinister.
There’s Lemmygrad if you’re that kind of guy… But touching grass is available too.
Is the exploding heads instance still alive? There you had some very different opinions.
They moved to Nostr since there they can’t be defederated and shut their Lemmy instance down, I bet they’ll later claim that us or the ADL shut them down because conspiracy theories are juicier.
Oh no! People might challenge my opinions! The horror!
Can you say…all words on Lemmy?
Can you say any phrase from the combination of words on Lemmy?
Fun fact: until not too long ago there was a language filter built right into Lemmy’s source code.
No mandarin allowed?
hexbear begins lighting torches
what is a hexbear?
A far right Lemmy instance.
Technically they’re far left (Tankies) but they don’t act that much different from far right in terms of behavior (such as their abusive and disruptive trolling).
They’re far right cosplaying leftists.
Wait, Hexbear is far right now for checks notes supporting China?
Leftist instance that your instance preemptively defederated from, presumably so you could stay in your echo chamber

Ah yes, clearly nobody could actually be a communist (notwithstanding the existence of the CPC and others)? I’m not sure what your argument is supposed to be… the CIA murders them all?
There is a language filter still that any admin can put words into.
But it’s not hard coded into the source code
Yes, no predefined list ships in the code, just the ability to add words to the list.
I actually dig it a bit. They’re not really censoring themselves, they’re still talking about corn and seggs just in a way the app doesn’t yet recognize. Take that advertisers!
Yeah, they’re literally bypassing being censored. They’re continuing to talk about the shit that the company doesn’t want them to. It’s the opposite of what people are bitching about.
My wife was telling me about how annoying it is that she’ll try listening to new true crime podcasts and they’ll shit like “unalived” instead of “killed”. Comes across hella disrespectful to the victims.
To be fair, it’s pretty bleak to use someone’s grisly murder as a means of entertainment. Our society is weird
“Hey there all you horror sweeties, I’ve got a sloppy poppy oopy goopy murder of a three year old little girl brought to you by Squarespace”
You enhanced the meme, good job.

You ever go to a club where a man wee on you?
Sponsored school shootings in [redacted by TVA]
Humans have had a taste for the macabre at least for as long as we have written history. Public executions used to be a past time activity (even Jesus’ crucifixion is told like it was a public show), the morgue of Paris was a tourist attraction, even the sanitised (and controversial) Body Worlds exhibition has no trouble finding an audience. Maybe what’s weird is our relationship with death and putrefaction. It happens to everyone yet it’s somehow in bad taste to talk about it.
If I was murdered and the case went cold for a long time, you bet I’d want everyone hearing about it after the case finally gets solved. But that’s just me.
I get so annoyed listening to true crime stuff on YouTube these days and having the audio cut out any time a person uses the word suicide or rape, but not the gorey details of murder; no that’s perfectly fine to hear every excruciating detail, but lord forbid your precious ears here the letters S-U-I-C-I-D-E in order.
Don’t listen to it on YouTube then.
The percentage of women I know that are into murder porn is alarming to me.
It’s not (mostly, I can’t speak for the weirdos out there) murder porn, though? For a while, it was a movement of almost solidarity with other women, because these stories could easily happen to us. So it was almost like listening to survival tips, as well as paying respects to those lost by trying to learn from their experiences. It probably wasn’t a coincedence that the ‘true crime wave’ happened around the time of Me Too.
And to soothe your mind, true crime as a ‘fad’ is dying quite a bit. People realized that, hey having a frivolous show where you clown and make cocktails or some shit while talking about real victims just isn’t okay.
Source: am a woman who was (and is) interested in true crime, and have spoken to many other women from different circles—and even states/cities—who were also interested in the topic.
It’s not exclusive to woman either – guys (especially young guys) watch police bodycams of shootings, combat footage, and gore-porn TV shows or movies. There were entire subreddits dedicated to actual videos/pictures of people dying – and I’ll give you one guess as to what the demographics of their user bases were.
It’s almost as if a lot of people are morbidly curious about death and violence.
True crime has been popular since the 50s and has no signs of winding down.
That’s not what I said, is it? I was talking specifically about the more recent spike in popularity.
Edit: Not sure why I’m being down voted for pointing out what I said. I very specifically was talking about the spike in popularity around 2016. I’m not talking about the topic being popular before that, because there is a specific difference in the two time frames, where interest in the topic reached a fever pitch. And yes, it is ‘slowing down’ compared to said fever pitch ~2016. But ‘slowing down’ mostly means returning to baseline.
It’s dangerously close to 100 in my experience
Everyone else is circle jerking about the censorship, meanwhile, I’m wondering how murder, rape, suicide, sex, and lesbians all came up in a bumble chat.
Look, I had a busy weekend, okay
“IF YOU DONT HAVE LE$BIAN SEGGS WITH ME ILL UNALIVE MYSELF!”
They were talking about chainsaw man
“says le$bian”
Really. Can you spell out phonetically how they say that?
Lecashbian?
Le’dollarbian.
*Tips fedora
Le-dolla-be’in
The actual way we’ve said it jokingly around here. ^
Le cha-ching! bian
“Lecashbian” could roll well off the tongue
It’s his the French refer to Le Caspian.
Says he met her on bumble, so I assume she says it like “le$bian”
inb4 prescriptivists coming here to say that writing something isn’t “saying” it
$bian is a variable but it wasn’t set, so it’s pronounced “le-undefined”
Le money sign bian
I’ll never forget about 25 years ago cruising around some random chat rooms on mIRC and somebody asked me how the weather was and I said it was a bit chilly and I got instabanned with the message potty mouth… took me a good 5 minutes to workout wtf happened (bit ch)illy
Ah, the Scunthorpe problem, a classic
Also known as the Penistone problem
Does your penis have a tone? I’ve never noticed one from mine, but maybe I need to pay closer attention 🤔
It would be nice to know if I had a penis first
You haven’t heard of tone wood?
Mine’s a D#

Ain’t that a bitch? Illy.
I love you too, bitch.
Honestly, a tiktokker and a 4channer sound like the perfect couple, at least from the POV as an outside observar. grass popcorn
That’s like shipping a mature coomercel with a school girl
Sounds like something a 4channer would greentext about.
I’m not sure you and I have the same definition of “perfect”
I fucking hate people censoring themselfs. Like what the fuck does “I ****** ***** ****** *****” mean?
N**** ***** **** *** **
Did you just Rick roll us with stars?!

I automatically have zero respect for anyone using that chinese spyware trash.
Agreed, I prefer American made spyware
Chinese and Korean made phones, running American software, which was outsourced to India.
What do I get if I catch em all?
Why specify Chinese? Any private social media mobile app is spyware
Made in china, under complete control of ccp as every big company in china is. It is very unfortunate that younger generation is essentially being raised by tiktok and its algorithm.
Facebook is bad, no doubts about that, it’s also unavoidable as the only social media for most people, and it’s also not fun for most people. Tiktok on the other hand is interesting, it’s captivating, the algorithm tailors it to you, microdoses you with dopamine. I’m sure that same algorithm can be, if desired, used to push pro-china/pro-russia/anti-west narratives to varying degrees of subtlety, tailor-made to each user, to further destabilize certain countries, united states included.
Social media is dangerous, social media controlled by a potential enemy is dangerous on a whole another level.
Oh no, telling people that the US isn’t the greatest country in the world, the horror!
Big difference between “The US isn’t actually the greatest country in the world” (whatever the fuck “greatest” means, they’re never too clear about that) and “Uighyurs are dangerous dissident terrorists who need to be re-educated. Any organ donations are purely voluntary.”
But then again, I am talking to a CCP shill from lemmygrad. Pretty much pissing into an ocean of piss here.
Do you have a source to back your claims up?
Make no mistake, there have been some allegations in the UN report, that if true, I would want China to do better. But I don’t remember reading about organ harvesting in there.
Who do you trust to make reputable claims that aren’t motivated by political reasons on this?
This right here is the answer.
Yes, we know that our government has done shitty, crazy things to try to control people and they probably aren’t above that today.
They do not have it in their best interest to weaken their own country though. A potentially hostile foreign government does.
I mean, everyone uses it so I hope not. We’ll see I guess.
Ok Richard Stallman
Cannot resist bashposting:

Okay, we need to stop letting Youtube police our langauge

Good try
We don’t need no education, we don’t need no thought control.
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Thot control*
This is tiktok though.
Is that a gauge for LANs?
No but actually yes.
Preventing people from saying “lesbian” sounds homophobic to me.
CPC regularly disappear gay and lesbian people. Back in 1996 they just publicly executed them.
Thats why I find it insane when lgbtq+ people defend China. Like bruh, you would go to the work camps if you lived there
Well it is TikTok. So that tracks
Omg…
Is this a joke? 4chan is the origin of candy ass censorship, it enforced coded slurs
Examples?

Languages evolving, to match the censorship, which means censorship will evolve as well. People want to express themselves
How does one pronounce le$bian?
Le dollar bien (Fr*nch accent)
Please censor Fr#nch it’s offensive
My apologies.
Ferme ta yeule maudit tabarnak ça parait que tu suce des criss de queues
