The Internet has become a very censored place in the last few years. Lots of words that aren't cursed get censored: suicide, guns, sex, drugs, actual drug names. I think it started from tik tok censoring words cause china, but also people afraid to 'trigger' others and then it kinda became its own thing unfortunately.
The stupidest instance in recent memory was an LGBT-positive video saying “It’s okay to be queer!” but in the captions, inserting another one of those fucking dinky-ass asterisks into the word “queer”.
Okay, so is it NOT okay to be queer? Should we censor “boy” and “girl” next? Or maybe stop with the silly asterisks and blame the medium that actually tries with the bans.
Ummm this entire comment should have been asterisks.
I got a ban on Facebook for using the word "fatty". Didn't matter I was talking about the breakdown of fatty acids in digestion, because "fatty" is bad.
You're blaming the wrong people. Being sensitive of triggers is a good thing, advertisers are the problem.
If you look into the history of radio & television, you'll see the same pattern. Like the internet, at first they were an awesome medium anyone could use and all kinds of badass stuff happened. Over time everything became consolidated & advertisers insisted on censoring for maximum efficiency.
Time is a circle.
Though you can you imagine if someone tried to bring the Hays Code to the internet?
