    We’ve gone all the way around so now censoring a swear makes people more upset than actually saying it and I really don’t understand why.

    Year 2000

    Say ‘fuck’

    People get irrationally mad

    Year 2024

    Say ‘fxck’

    People get irrationally mad

    What happened?

      The younger generations decided that being offended by swear words is fucking stupid.

        I’m an older generation and (generally) refrain from swearing myself, but seeing censored posts on Lemmy drives me fucking insane. This isn’t a preschool nor is it an advertiser-friendly place. We should keep it that way.
