Everyone else is circle jerking about the censorship, meanwhile, I’m wondering how murder, rape, suicide, sex, and lesbians all came up in a bumble chat.
Look, I had a busy weekend, okay
“IF YOU DONT HAVE LE$BIAN SEGGS WITH ME ILL UNALIVE MYSELF!”
They were talking about chainsaw man
since when is lesbian a swear or a sensitive word?
It is in China and Russia.
then it gets censored in russia and china like they do for nearly all the videos that come from the west, no?
There’s a whole tiktok-only meta where people think that adding particular tags or censoring certain words will prevent automod from deleting their post
I’m not sure it even works that way, but it’s very common
TikTok is a Chinese Military run platform.
yeah but the content in the west is different to the one in china. we can’t access Chinese tiktok and they can’t access ours
Then why would they still leave in all of that data collection software? The app copies your photos, contacts, and text history. I’m not saying you’re a liar, but it seems pretty ballsy for an American based company to do.
They can still use and profit from your data, they just know that there’s a different culture and demand for content in the west that they can push towards the consumer to hook them more
It’s scary how we seem to be getting closer and closer to 1984.
Newspeak is intended to make more complex thoughts impossible. This isn’t newspeak; they’re still talking about the topics, they’re just using dumb filter workarounds.
Though I do feel it’d be obnoxious to actually talk like this when not needed

on the one hand, yes. on the other hand, my generation piloted the spoken use of “lol”, “lmao”, and their myriad variations in pronunciation. this strikes me as merely upholding that proud tradition.
I suppose eventually I’ll come around to accepting it, if it persists. But these are not the same; the intent behind them is different. “LOL” is an acronym, not a censorship workaround. Saying it out loud is purely ironic. Maybe the zoomers saying Tiktokisms out loud is also ironic (I’ve personally never heard it directly), but the reason it exists in the first place is stupid
At first it was ironic, then it just became a muscle memory response.
Plenty of people thought text acronyms were dumb and people were even dumber for saying them, even ironically. This is just you being one of those people for the new generation of “kids these days”
There is no purpose for using the word ‘grape’ as a substitute for ‘rape’ other than to avoid tiktok moderation. It contains the full original word, therefore doesn’t serve any censorship purpose. Using it this way can even recontextualise the word in a way that trivialises SA. It’s harmful, unlike lol or lmao.
Every generation comes up with new terms that the older generations don’t get. The proud tradition has been going strong since language began.
What is culture?
Wasn’t 1984 almost 40 years ago
It’s a book, I suggest you check out it’s themes
It was also written in 1946 or 47 but published in 1948. See the pattern? They swapped the 4 and 8 and published a dystopian future of the far off year 1984, lol.
Sorry, I just love that little fact.
Huh, I didn’t know that, cool!

Not really? One is done for corporate profit. The other is the state.
End result is the same for us though. It just ends up being someone different enforcing it.
Sure Jan.
The terms originated from online censorship but to me using these terms IRL is very similar to people who use internet slang out loud. Might not be censoring herself but just so used to using those terms. It’s annoying either way though.
I had this happen in real life.
A friend of a friend died of cancer complications. I posted a rest in peace type message on Facebook without details.
The next time I saw my mother she asked “I saw your post. Did your friend unalive herself…?”. It felt SO insulting and demeaning for her to ask that AND to ask like that.
Okay, we need to stop letting Youtube police our langauge
This is tiktok though.
langauge
Good try
We don’t need no education, we don’t need no thought control.
Thot control*
No but actually yes.
Is this a joke? 4chan is the origin of candy ass censorship, it enforced coded slurs
Jesus, I just remembered the people’s champion and roody poo.
I’m sorry

Honestly, a tiktokker and a 4channer sound like the perfect couple, at least from the POV as an outside observar. grabs popcorn
I’m not sure you and I have the same definition of “perfect”
That’s like shipping a mature coomercel with a school girl
Sounds like something a 4channer would greentext about.
My millennial partner (admittingly adopted the lingo late) approaches strangers with doggos and says things like what a Heckin good pupper, who’s a smoll boi etc.
Not surprised at zoomers doing this. Its just more funny on twitter when someone says something like fugg you!
Doggos ARE heckin good boyos
Signed, a Zoomer
I fucking hate people censoring themselfs. Like what the fuck does “I ****** ***** ****** *****” mean?
N**** ***** **** *** **
Did you just Rick roll us with stars?!
N**** ***** *** *** ****
Saw this often back then on Reddit. People wanting to curse, but the writing f*ck. If you want to curse, curse. If you think it would be too rude to spell out, just fucking don’t.
Same vibes as Hentai with blurred titties.
hentai are Animation right? so they have a blurry texture for tits or do they blur it after?
After, which is really dumb because a lot of artists are spending time making the art only to have to put a black bar over their work for no real logical reason.
I think that’s mostly when people use speech to text. I know gboard automatically censors words like that.
It’s a setting you can change

Anon makes normal small talk
Languages evolving, to match the censorship, which means censorship will evolve as well. People want to express themselves
