Censorship is a real problem, but you don’t have to embrace it. That’s just making the problem worse.

    Why the fuck would that matter lol.

    Ideas are being censored by filtering words so if the idea comes across then its the same thing.

    Sorry for cursing.

      At what point is fuck, shit, cock, cunt, pussy, bitch, slut, ass, or any other “bad” word an idea?

      If you’re gonna cave into censorship then fucking cave. Anything less is just pathetic.

      And no need to apologize. In all honesty please curse more. Fuck what snooty people think is uncouth.

        Oh i kind of thought you were concerned with ideological expression being culled… but i guess you just want to cuss lmao.

        Arent you caving MORE if you use an entirely different word? Omitting a single letter means you express exactly what you intended to but using an entirely different word… holy shit thats like repressing your true self to please corporations… or something… sorry im not good at this.

          You’re correct that I just want to cuss. But the two aren’t unrelated. If someone can decide certain words are inappropriate they can decide any words are inappropriate.

          My point about caving is if you’re gonna cave to their (whatever website/app) rules then cave completely. Don’t swear. At all. If you want to swear but can’t because of some bullshit terms of service then either protest by swearing brazenly or use a different word.

          If you’re not gonna spell it out then you’re already doing what they want.

            Idk i just consider the important ethical questions of life and society and compare it to your disdain for asterisks and wonder why you walk this path. Seems really specific and im not sure who benefits.
