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

[–] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 25 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Now hang on, you can't expect us to actually admit what we're doing here.

[–] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Wow this guy used the hard R

[–] deroyonz@lemmy.zip 21 points 2 days ago

sorry thats not a censor, i just accidentally came on the screen a bit

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 37 points 2 days ago (4 children)

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.

That’s fucked up.

[–] pressanykeynow@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

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.

[–] missfrizzle@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

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.

Working as intended! POSIWID in action

[–] somerandomperson@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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...

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Solution everyone will love: AI image generators that uncensor posts automatically.

one of these annoys everyone, while the other creates content for me to enjoy

[–] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago

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.

[–] missfrizzle@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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.

I'm not a tankie so I left and never looked back.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 days ago

seems like they still do

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Unfortunately, if you want censoring to stop, we have to stop letting our lives be ruled by algorithms.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Is there any way to subscribe to posts upvoted by specific Lemmy users?

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Lemmy uses an open one though and isnt it just based on upvotes and time?

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I meant more of a societal "our", more-so than Lemmy users specifically. We're certainly a bit ahead of the curve, but most of the content that lands here still comes from other social media sites first.

[–] darkmogool@feddit.org 5 points 2 days ago

holy fucking shit i fucking angree

same shit woth "sex", "porn" and so on

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago
[–] buttnugget@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

It’s a bit confusing because this is an image and not the text itself.

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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!

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

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!!

[–] bier@feddit.nl 2 points 2 days ago

But that might scare away advertisers...

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de -5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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.

Get a grip ya silly c*nt.

[–] Fenrisulfir@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So you use censorship as emphasis? That seems backwards

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Yea, I can’t really explain it but I saw a post the other day here somewhere and basically I agreed. They were saying that curse words have become so prevalent that they’ve lost some of the power, if every other word is fuck then it loses it potency, writing f*ck kind of adds that emphasis.

Honestly though I’m just sick of all these people on here complaining about it to be honest, it’s the most minute of issue that they latch on too. Free expression means I can write what I want and if some people don’t like that that’s their problem.

I guess also I’m just in a better place in my life and the constant negativity on here is just not something I’m prepared to keep consuming.

Curse word this, Linux that, rah rah rah.

This place has literally become the Donald for us on the left and it’s a massive circlejerk of all us fellating each other for being so moral when in reality we ain’t changing shit and we have made our own little echo chamber.

I’ve gone from 4 hours a day on here to less than 5 mins on average and I’m happier for it.
