Ridiculous that we can have people pushing challenges that cause harm, telling you the earth is flat, that trump is god emperor, or that autism is easy to cure. Those garbage posts go crazy. But if you swear some algorithms lower your visibility and certain words get your posts hidden or banned.
It’s an easy way to test your censorship algorithms. People swear all the time. It’s also a message to “think what you’re saying before posting” which is great because the best censorship is self censorship. By “great” I mean it’s essential for fascism. Control how people speak, it makes you control how they think, then you control how they act.
That’s why we should not crosspost from other filthy, corrupted, centralised, properitary and corporate controlled platforms. I wish cross-platform posts were banned in this comm. Or an alternative existed. But Alas…
most fascists don’t call themselves fascists. so YouTube censoring the word “fascist” tends to muzzle people calling out fascists, not the fascists themselves. it vexes me.
lemmy.ml (used to?) automatically replace “bitch” with *removed*. I’d see people call themselves a “basic removed” or say “removed please” and it was very confusing. it applied to every message.
“cunt” wasn’t censored, though? or maybe they removed the filter at some point.
Lot of people been asking me why my voice beeps all the f**king time. The Torgue shareholders wired my voicebox with a digital censor, so I can’t say stuff like S**t c**k p***y or f**kin-d**kballs. That’s like half my vocabulary, it’s goddamn bulls**t!!
Stop telling people how to write if I want to add an * to a word I fucking will do. Sometimes I find it adds something to the word like highlights this is a strong word. Y’all are some basic b*tches complaining about dumb stuff all the fucking time.
STOP. CENSORING. EVERY. FUCKING. SWEAR!!!
Woah woah woah there pal, we don’t even say sw–r around these parts, that’s too far! If you’re going to censor an image at least do it right. smh /j
Now hang on, you can’t expect us to actually admit what we’re doing here.
Wow this guy used the hard R

That’s fucked up.

Solution everyone will love: AI image generators that uncensor posts automatically.
or like, spend 10 seconds in gimp
That’ll sure add up, but thank you very much for doing these for us!

Working as intended! POSIWID in action
one of these annoys everyone, while the other creates content for me to enjoy
Unfortunately, if you want censoring to stop, we have to stop letting our lives be ruled by algorithms.
Is there any way to subscribe to posts upvoted by specific Lemmy users?
Lemmy uses an open one though and isnt it just based on upvotes and time?

I’m not a tankie so I left and never looked back.
seems like they still do
holy shπ
sorry thats not a censor, i just accidentally came on the screen a bit
I fucking r*fuse!
It’s particularly infuriating when the censor doesn’t even inhibit the ability to read the word. Like, a child can still figure out what that says.
It’s a bit confusing because this is an image and not the text itself.
F*cking right, these sh*t sucking c*nts, censoring every tw*t spanking bast*rd w*nker who s*dding censors their own bl**dy sp*nking, comments.
G*sh
Fl*ps
M*nge
FOAMY GUSHING CUNT!
holy fucking shit i fucking angree
same shit woth “sex”, “porn” and so on
But that might scare away advertisers…

Get a grip ya silly c*nt.
