  You can say “shit” on the Internet.

    Let them self censor. It’s their comment.

    I’d personally prefer to see special characters than word replacement like “unalive”

      Unalive is a s##tty replacement for the word shit.

        You can say slutty on the internet.

        Unalive is the replacement for dead.

      I use “atropos” to replace it.

      Because “thanatos” is filtered now.

      There are multitudinous other words they could choose from.

    They’re being brainwashed by corpo social media to self-censor, a necessary 1984 step.

      Best edit ever.

      Also, fuck.

      Is it brainwashing, or adapting to circumvent actual censorship? People say “unalive” because “kill” will hide your content from the algorithm, if it doesn’t remove it entirely.

        And yet here we all are, reading your comment. Maybe the algorithms on some platforms are that aggressive, but certainly not here.

        What is brainwashing except forced adaptation to manufactured requirements?

  Hey, you’re trying to censor with asterisks but Lemmy interprets those as formatting instructions. If you want the asterisks to show up, you need to put a backslash in front of them like so:

  Cheap ones are s\**t, worn out ones are also s\**t.

    And we’re all adult enough to handle reading the words.

    It’s such a strange idea to use bad words but okay it by censoring letters out. Either use the word or don’t.

      Okay. I was explaining how to do asterisks.

        Sorry, it wasn’t directed towards you. I was thinking out loud.
