i think people who make this argument generally take the whole thing a little too seriously. at this point i’ve started censoring fuckwords in memes bc i think it’s funny that it seems to upset some folk so much.

I take it seriously because it is a sliding scale. I've been on the Internet since the 90s and I have seen it slide like there is no tomorrow and every time some new censorship comes up making people talk weird.

Just stop it, just talk normal

The irony is the woke people weren't the ones asking for DEI or genderless bathrooms. It was the retards forcing people to resort to "seggs" instead of sex. "Unalive" instead of kill and "unhoused" instead of homeless and can go on and on. It's fucking dumb lol.

the original impetus behind that censorship comes from social media and content providers. it seeped into the public lexicon from there.

it wasn’t some organized effort by people you don’t like, that’s a silly thing to think.
