Yes, I'm aware I can curse on the internet - it's not my first day here. I use the exact words I mean to use, and I'm more a fan of the precision F-strike than indiscriminately carpet-bombing the place with "fucks". Stop word-policing me (and others).
Edited to add alt text.
Yeah, this went over about as well as expected. And the irony and hypocrisy of the free speech absolutists coming out of the woodwork to tell us all what we can and can't say is not lost on me.
the only thing more annoying than someone self-censoring are the billion people telling them to stop self-censoring
like we get it, we don’t need 20000 replies saying the same thing!!!!!!!!
I sometimes use "censored" words because they're ducking hilarious
SLAM!
What are you talking about with free speech absolutists? I think you are trying to reach a different audience than Lemmy because I think most people here think that's stupid.
I've posted about this before and met the same results. People are very convinced that the danger of the internet becoming more ad friendly is more important that letting people say what they wanna say. In a way I do get it, but it's annoying not being able to do what you wanna do.
I don't like censored swear words and I want to censor them
Is cursing still a thing? I thought it was just a part of regular expression nowadays.
Something somewhere has gone sideways. May I ask for an example of that which annoys you?
It is also someone's prerogative to criticise it if they want to. Stop word policing people, OP.
F--K YEAH!!
For the sake of being doubly contrary, I'm going to say that it's perfectly acceptable to say "fork" because that is a euphemism that you could verbalise, but saying "f--k" is bad because it isn't. /s
How do I pronounce "F--k"?
With a 1 kHz beep!
Nice.
Tell me you didn't watch MTV in the late 90s without actually saying it
Nah, by the time the reality shows started appearing on MTV I was long done with it.
Fun fact, Fuck has no comparable word in my language so the subtitles never had F--k in them.
