    “fucking” is fine but “pedophiles” is too explicit not to censor? This trend is so god damn stupid

      Apparently they do it because it drives up engagement

      Solution: downvote or ignore

      Probably not about being explicit, but more about not getting your accounts banned from everywhere.

        If a site will ban you for either of those words it’s not worth using recreationally

          So we should just let the corpo sites like IG and YT be filled with corpo friendly propaganda? This seems like one of those “don’t hate the player, hate the game” situations

            No. You’re supposed to stop visiting them. Full stop.

              Then how does your counter-propaganda reach the idiots who keep doing so?

              (For the record, I don’t use those sites, but I recognize that it greatly limits the audience for what I write.)

                It’s not my job to deprogram idiots. I don’t know why you would even frame your question that way.

                  Because the idiots affect your life, whether you like it or not.

                    Okay, but they’re probably not going to do a good job about it if they’re less than eager to do so. They’ll probably make things worse.

          I mean, if you want to reach as many as you can with your political message, you have to be where the users are, unfortunately. But us regular people, we can happily stay away.

          It didn’t originate on lemmy so someone saw it on twitter or something and reshared it here

            I was wondering why use the censored version here tho, but I thought about it for a moment and realised it’s not worht the effort to find the uncensored version when this one is still readable
